Cruz turns down Supreme Court appointment
"Ted Cruz and Donald Trump appear to have moved past their contentious campaign, but the Texas senator does not want to become the president-elect's new Supreme Court nominee. After Cruz spoke with Trump a week after Election Day, he and his chief of staff, David Polyansky, met with Trump's chief strategist Steve Bannon and rejected the potential nomination, reports Politico, and has been emerging as one of Trump's key allies in the Senate instead."

I would not have agreed with you in the past, but since Obama appointed the ones he selected, I have to agree with you. If left wing radicals like those two could be selected and confirmed, then "anyone" can. |

It's the wolves voting for who protects the lambs. The president picks and the house confirms...no chance for corruption there. Bought and paid for people appointing other bought and paid for people...that's our government in a nutshell. |

Nominate away. Since it take 60 votes by the senate, don't expect any nominee to be confirmed until the GOP picks up eight more seats, 2018 at the earliest. As Sen Chuck Schumer says "when pigs fly". |

Alternatively, a bipartisan group of Senators could form another "Gang of 14" to ensure qualified nominees are confirmed and will also prevent the expansion of the nuclear option. |
