Do not like.

While I'm sure he has a very capable grasp of law, he's too socially conservative and everything the party should be distancing themselves from.

This thread title makes it sound like it's confirmed, news not mentioning and looks like all it was is Rush saying he'd like Cruz for AG. Seems click baitish type thread.

I like the hire. Ted will clean house. He's a weird guy that I wouldn't vote for as president, but I think he'll do good in this role.

This is a good choice.

From a political perspective people have to remember Ted came in a strong second thus he brings a lot of support from the hard constitutional right.

I'd rather Ted be on the Supreme Court. The everlasting melt would be incredible.

I'm ok with this. Trump is gonna need a bulldog to clean house. Ted doesn't seem too concerned about hurting feelings which is what you're gonna need when you start tossing people out on their arse

I get the impression Ted doesn't want to spend his days in a judge's robe listening to people bitch about wedding cakes...

You mean the guy that Trump ranted about being a liar all through the primaries? There are other outstanding choices that wouldn't require that kind of backtracking.

If this is true, Obama will have to Pardon Hillary, the Clinton Foundation and her staff. This is the Chernobyl of destruction to the DNC. It will damage them for generations to come.

Meanwhile, Texas can have a special election and elect another uber conservative to the US Senate. This is a win all the way around.

We are witnessing one of the greatest defeats on a political party in American history.

Elections have consequences.

The left should love this since Cruz is Latino.

Cruz was Solicitor General for Texas for a while and served as an associate to the state attorney general and worked in the Bush DOJ for several years before the senate. He's a pretty strict constitutionalist as well and is a smart guy. I obviously didn't support him in the primaries but this job is perfect for him.

Wrong. That title would be 'Cruz chosen as Atty Gen.'

news not mentioning

The news doesn't mention a lot of stuff. And most of what they mention is a lie.

Wrong again. He was given info about the meeting from the Trump people. Rush and Trump are good friends. If you listened to Rush you'd know that many of his ideas on Monday and made positions by Trump on Tuesday.

Why do I care if anyone clicks on my threads? I don't get paid here.

yeah, I've checked a bunch of sites and none are reporting this. Usually, Rush will cite where he got some breaking news, like AP. Perhaps he was just speculating why Ted was there yesterday.
