If Trump should get elected, I predict he will find a cabinet post for every . single . one of his Republican opponents … yeah, even “little Marco.”[/quote]
True, he plays political back scratch game very well to get his projects approved.
What you described is old boys money club, and wow would his followers get sold down the river. . . . [/quote]
I disagree about the “old boys money club” NSR. You forgot about Carly Fiorina and NM Gov Susana Martinez, for starters. Both of these accomplished women have skill sets which Trump will need for his agenda, and if elected, he will find posts for both of them.
I feel it would be in the best interest for the Grand Olde Party (but the “Old Guard” is too short-sighted to realize this …. yet) if Trump and Cruz “coupled up” BEFORE March 15 and campaigned together in populous FL (“Little Marco’s” state). Cruz speaks “the King’s” fluent Spanish (not quite the same Spanish we hear around here, lol) and so does Rubio. Trump will really need Cruz on his ticket as he heads west in the coming months.
Perhaps the two have already made a tentative “backroom deal” to pair up, contingent on the outcome of the primaries in MI, ID and MS and HI on Tuesday.
I haven’t yet decided what the outcome of the general election will be (a R or D president) but I predict the R candidate will take all the “border counties” in the US (yeah, even SD and Imperial Counties). The Lincoln Club is very influential in this town and they will set a up a staged rally (with heavy security) for Trump/Cruz along the (urban) Int’l border just south of the Tijuana Estuary or the 905 fwy with all the bright lights on high beam (for TV “effect”). This will give Fmr Rep Duncan Hunter a platform to introduce Trump/Cruz to their many thousands of disgusted border-dwelling supporters. Trump will start off the rally by pointing to the exact location the high wall will be going up that he’s planning on having MX pay for amid a full two-minute roar from the audience of “Trump, trump, trump …” Cruz will manage to calm the crowd down and begin speaking Spanish to them. :=0
If Trump gets the nomination, the same as above will happen this summer/fall just east of the Juarez border entry gates just south of El Paso, TX and Gov Martinez will proudly introduce the pair to a HUGE crowd, again with all the lights on high beam and the crowd shouting over and over “Trump-Cruz!”
OK, you can pick yourself up off the floor now and stop laughing, people …. I know a thing or two about how all of this stuff works and can tell you that the “fat lady” has only begun singing her second number for the evening.
