No the same thing. If the safe had a feature that would vaporize everything inside if you turned the dial the wrong way 5 times they'd be demanding the safe company develop a firmware update that disables the feature.
The safe company would then say "but then nobody will trust our safe vaporization tech".
Trump is wrong on this one.

It is over. Trump cant be stopped. Ted needed to be close and he missed the mark. Time for Ted Cruz to get out and let Donald run the board. Cruz and Rubio cant do enough to be visible before super Tuesday.

Yep...Sounds like the Trump Train is unstoppable. I hope the bickering stops now. I was hoping for a better showing for Ted.
So glad Jeb is gone. Couple of others need to hang it up too.

There's a silver lining though...The very real possibility exists of getting Cruz onto the Supreme Court now. If McConnell grows a spine.

Wouldn't that be something. Cruz fills the Scalia vacancy.

would you rather Cruz be nominated for the Court or ultimately end up as Trumps VP seeing as he's probably second best
Trump hasn't even mentioned a VP thought yet

Gingrich won SC in 2012 by a wider margin than Trump won it and was polling really strong.
As candidates drop out and their supporters go to Cruz and Rubio, it's going to get extremely tight. It's certainly not a foregone conclusion.
I'm gonna vote for the funniest frog with the loudest croak on the highest log.

The VP is nothing except for a Senate tie breaker once in a blue moon. If not the President, then the Supreme Court would be fantastic...Maybe even better.

Honestly, I don't see anything stopping him now.
And in Nevada, Hillary didn't exactly destroy Bernie. He did quite well in my opinion. I gotta say, Hilldawg hasn't been this badly worked over--schlonged if you will--by a Jew since Monica Lewinsky.

If they have a court order to unlock a specific phone used in the commission of a crime, I've got no problem.
If they unlock one iPhone, they've unlocked them all.
When it is a matter of National Security and the owner of the phone is dead and the government has the phone, it should be unlocked, instantly, no questions asked. If it were a safe in the guys house, it would've been opened in 30 minutes.
This assumption, based on safe cracking, is flawed. In this case, imagine the "safe" in question is the most sophisticated and impregnable safe ever sold to a member of the general public, where dynamite might open it but would destroy the contents, where it has failsafe measures that could set the contents on fire if you tried to drill it. If these terrorists had used that sort of safe, no, no one, not even out resident safe expert and the FBI, would get in it in 30mins, maybe not even 30days, and more accurately - what these terrorists used was a virtual safe like what I've described.
It is most certainly not like a "they'd get in the safe in 30mins" thing. At all.
Sorry, it's not personal, it's just a flawed analogy.

I sincerely want Cruz on the court and believe it's the best utilization of his offerings.
Is there anyone, truly, who is more Scalia-esque, or otherwise a sincerely good replacement? Maybe. Our resident attorneys may know of someone. But I hope it's him, and I'm keeping my virtual fingers crossed that this is an outcome we end up with, by stalling now, electing Rubio or Trump, and pushing Cruz through the process.
