Which of the following Trump advocates do you think are going to run in 2020

I actually think Pence could have a solid shot at the nomination in 2020 if Trump loses.

Some percentage of the Trump vote will go to him and there is nothing that Ted Cruz can out do him on.

And frankly you guys are all miscalculating this, which does not surprise me. Hannity is already calling Cruz a saboteur and he is more powerful than Beck. If Trump loses, whatever devil Trump might have been in office will never be known, instead there will be the devil in the White House and anybody who is viewed as being complicit in helping to facilitate her election will be viewed with hostility.

Pence is a natural candidate for all of Cruz's voters and Pence has consistency on his side for much longer. You go back a decade or more and you find Pence voting against Bush on NCLB and opposing  out of control spending. Like most Texas Republicans, Cruz was a Bush shill for most of the 2000's. Pence trying to make the best of Trump and help defeat Hillary Clinton will sell much better to GOP vote audiences then Cruz's intransigence and shifting stories on the motivation for it.
