Radio Host Asks Cruz If He’d ‘Consider’ Serving on Supreme Court — and Gets This Answer Back

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) said he was not interested in serving as a justice on the Supreme Court Friday, telling a radio host that he had opportunities in the past “to go to the bench,” but that it was “not a desire of my heart.”

The comments came during an interview with WBAP-AM host Chris Salcedo.

“Everybody mentions your name, a lot of people do, and the Supreme Court,” Salcedo told Cruz. ”Frankly, all the times I’ve interviewed you, I’ve never asked if you have any aspirations or felt called if asked to serve on the Supreme Court.”

The host asked, “I mean, I know you have the sharp intelligence to handle the job. But is it even something you even consider?”

“You know, Chris, I’ll tell you. That is not a desire of my heart,” Cruz replied. (Read more from “Radio Host Asks Cruz If He’d ‘Consider’ Serving on Supreme Court — and Gets This Answer Back” HERE)
