Cruz has changed his position on H-1B visas. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLiM1awLylc
Cruz isn’t my guy. Actually I think he is kinda creepy. But he is the only remaining choice that closely aligns with my views and I believe he is actually a conservative. As a member of the Republican party I will vote in the primary for the candidate that aligns with my radical right wing views. Then come the general I will vote for our nominee. But I understand that the primary is only a preference survey. I want my views represented. I know Cruz can’t win just like I knew that Alan Keys couldn’t win when I voted for him. It is my choice.
But you do realize, don’t you, that you are not really voting for Cruz, you are voting for a brokered convention, and Jeb Bush/Mitt Romney the nominees.
Cruz has also changed his position on amnesty, all recent developments. He has had a conversion on the road to Cleveland. He has changed his stance on trade since co-authoring a WSJ opinion piece with Ryan on TPA. Cruz responds to his donors like the Club for Growth and Goldman-Sachs.
Cruz position paper on immigration still doesn't decrease legal immigration. He has promised not to increase legal immigration from the current levels of 1.1 million a year. Trump wants to return legal immigration down to historical levels, i.e., 200,000 a year.
There is a reason why Jeff Sessions, Phyllis Schlafly, and Kris Kobach have endorsed Trump over Cruz. And Steve Miller a top staffer for Sessions on trade issues, has moved over to work for Trump. I don't trust Cruz whom I believe is a GOPe insider pretending to be an outsider. He is just another Harvard lawyer who has spent most of his adult life feeding at the government trough. He knows how to manipulate conservatives using the right buzz words. Cruz is a grandstanding gadfly who is a pariah in his own party, mainly due to his overriding personal ambition that pushes him to start at the top despite being a first term senator with little executive experience.
You are entitled to your choice. I already voted for Trump here in SC. Trump will win in MD. Cruz will probably finish third.
