Cruz is acceptable on many fronts of a SCOTUS nomination. He stands up to adversity (he ran a good race against POTUS), he works with his opponents and grows rather than become bitter (he came over to POTUS’s side after the election, even after Trump went hard on him), he understands the importance of being a “rock ribbed conservative” in a world where judges are wined and dined for favorable outcomes. I have come to like Cruz in many ways, I still don’t think he is strong enough to be President (Especially not when government agencies are working against a sitting president), but a Supreme Court Justice doesn’t need the strength of a pure leader, there is room for debate and discussion.

I know he worked for the appellate court before being a senator, but I don’t know to what extent.

He has a good podcast called Verdict with Ted Cruz, which gets into his personal mindset a bit.

What are your thoughts on Cruz?
