No, Trump has NOT been the only one to say no to amnesty. In fact, he was quite critical of Romney's anti-amnesty position during 2012. He STILL says we need to do something for those who have been here working for years. Cruz has been the only one to reject the idea outright and he's been doing it for years.

“Cruz has been the only one to reject the idea outright and he’s been doing it for years.”

You can post that with a straight face?

Just because a politician says they are against ‘amnesty’, doesn’t mean they are against letting them stay, giving them legal status, giving them citizenship over those waiting in line, etc.

Even McCain was never for amnesty, if you trust just him saying it.

Cruz has been deafeningly silent on what he’d do with the illegals here. He even went so far as to admit that he wouldn’t say what his plan yet because ‘Americans didn’t want to have that discussion.’ BS! That obviously didn’t poll well, so he came out with a vague policy paper that sounded good, just like his great rant in the last debate-but he still wasn’t specific in either. He used the ‘d’ word once and only as a possibility.

I think his donors are causing the uncharacteristic silence.
