If it's just to go after Texas electoral votes (which would be extra, 100% chance if we win Texas then we are winning in enough other states to win) I'd point out he didn't win Texas against a very unpopular and unlikable Cruz so it's highly unlikely he'd bring it along as a VP candidate.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
