One of the CruzBots in panic mode was making this same point, but then they themselves provide an article dated a day later, where Trump mentions deporting all illegal aliens. They tried to spin it as a "flip flop," but Trump not mentioning deportation, nor mentioning letting them stay, is not evidence for a flip flop.

The clip is from July 24th.

Trump first mentions deportation for the non criminals on ~July 30th.

On the video, Trump was asked straight out what to do with the ones in the country.

Trump answered...

That's a legalization amnesty.

LOL. Your response...

lol yourself. Grow up.
My response is read your text, then read the link you provided. LOL.

And Trump was for a legalization without deportation for the non criminals as late as July 24th, 2015.

No, I’m pretty familiar with sarcasm, the real thing, not that imitation trying to be clever substitute.

This is absolutely dishonest. The amendment was a poison pill
Senator Cruz official website:
In 2013, Sen. Cruz proposed amendments to the "Gang of 8" bill that would strengthen border security, expand green card opportunities, increase high-skilled "H1B" visas, prevent illegal aliens from receiving welfare benefits, and enforce the rule of law.
So you and Cruz expect everyone to believe he proposed amendments to a bill, had it come up for a vote with his amendments, he had no intention of voting for?

Were you saying something about dishonesty?

“What has not been as evident is what he supports: legal status for millions of people here already, while making it easier for immigrants to come here through the front door.”

Wow!

Nobody was trying to be clever. It’s just a figure of speech. You’re trying to make something out of a big nothing.

I have seen that clip many times.

That's strange. The interview was just today.

He didn't go to law school to learn how to actually say anything he can be nailed down on, did he ?

Walker micromanaged himself into a ditch, Cruz worries more every time I read what he had to say instead of watching him speak, and that leaves Trump who I like more every time he makes a flat statement of fact that the rest of the crowd hems and haws around.

So let's see how the trumpholes defend that.
He does it himself every time he brings up the subject at each and every rally. No one else needs to do it for him.

But you knew that.

I love how Trump said he’d consider using the no-fly list to reject gun sales.

No, you're the one with their panties in twist trying to make something out of nothing. I was having some fun Greetings_Puny_Humans, who from what I have observed is more than capable of taking care of themselves if they feel the need and you felt the need to come charging in and try and start something up. Take pill,chill and wait for your own windmill to tilt at.

Boy, that is for sure. I have been around this place since the last century and have not seen the vitriol like now. They just don’t have the intelligence to see that Cruz plays 3 dimensional chess while they can only manage checkers.

If the no fly list wasn’t a joke that might be worth looking into. Who ends up on the list is the critical issue and right now, it’s the same clusterfrolic everything else “Homeland Security” touches ends up being.

Looks like the GOPe’s “Crush Cruz To Get To Trump” strategy is beginning to bear fruit. At least here at FR.

Their intent is to divide and conquer, folks. Don’t fall for it.
