Trump says he’s thinking of putting Republican Senator Ted Cruz on Supreme Court
Trump said he is considering nominating Republican Senator Ted Cruz to a future Supreme Court seat, despite Cruz previously saying he was not interested. The remark came during a discussion about potential nominating choices.
Cruz has been a prominent conservative figure and ally of Trump, though he has expressed disinterest in serving on the high court. A final decision on any nominee remains undecided and would depend on many factors.
No formal nomination has been announced, and Trump emphasized that discussions were exploratory at this stage.
