I didn’t watch any of the debate either, and like you, I don’t know where Ted Cruz really stands on the issue of illegal aliens. I am convinced, however, he will not deport them on the scale that Donald Trump will. And that single issue alone is the reason Trump has my vote.
Trump definitely has my vote in the primary and in the general if he wins the nom. I will also vote for cruz in the general if he wins, but it does seem like he is being intentionally vague about illegal aliens in the country, and I don’t appreciate that.
