So did Cruz, dear. In fact, on Sept. 9, Cruz was publicly saying that Syrian refugees in the U.S. were a bad idea.
Meanwhile, on Sept. 8,Trump was saying he thought the U.S. should accept some Syrian refugees, and changed his mind the very next day and was saying he thought the U.S. response should be "should be very careful", limited, etc. The same day Cruz was warning against taking them in because of the danger they pose.
Sure, in 2014 Cruz was okay with Syrian refugees in the U.S., but that was when they were talking about hundreds, not thousands or tens of thousands.
Sure, Trump is right on this, but don't kid yourself by saying that Cruz wasn't on it first.
I don't doubt it. The two issues Cruz flubbed are increasing H1B VISAS by multiples and getting played on the trade authorization deal, but he's come around on those two.
Even where Cruz was first, he hasn't captured the imagination and awakened US citizens in the way that Trump has. We don't have a chance to save the nation without Trump's charisma and ability to wake up the sleeping ginat.
