Would President Rubio Push Amnesty?
The Corner ^ | 2/8/16 | Mark Krikorian

Posted on 02/08/2016 6:47:17 AM PST by TBBT

Kevin writes that it's a mystery to him "that conservatives are so miserable at the moment, when they are presented with such a desirable choice" between Cruz and Rubio. Let me explain. There's no doubt that both "are self-conscious conservatives in the sense that they are products of the conservative movement," as Kevin says, "in a way that no president has been since Ronald Reagan." I'll even concede that Rubio got into bed with Schumer because he was auditioning for the job of Republican We Can Do Business With, a deal-maker who can get things done, and a deal on immigration seemed like a good place to start. But there are two factors that might help resolve Kevin's mystery. First, as I argue on the homepage today, immigration is not just another issue. It impacts every aspect of policy, and is irreversible. Angela Merkel's conservative bona fides are irrelevant next to the damage she has done to her country. If Rubio were to change his tune on immigration after winning the election (as he's done after winning every previous election), nothing else he did would matter.

He won’t have to.
Obozo will beat him, or any other candidate, to it, before he’s out..............................

Of course Marco "Gang of Eight PRO-AMNESTY BILL" Rubio would !

When it comes to Marco "AMNESTY" Rubio, CRUZ WINS hands down.

Rubio stood with Barack Obama and Chuck Schemer and supported a massive amnesty plan.

He said he’d leave it up to the American people to decide. Not exactly leadership. But the American people will never go for amnesty.

what’s this i keep reading about merkel being conservative?

is she, besides the one thing that has utterly destroyed the country, muzzies?

how can one be conservative and not care about border integrity?

she seems to me like she was too brainwashed as an east German child.

It actually doesn’t matter if he “pushes it.” If the next president doesn’t vigorously enforce the law and begin deportation, the problems associated with illegal aliens will continue to grow.

Rubio promises to keep Obama's executive amnesty for Dreamers:

In a little-noticed interview earlier this year with Univision, Jorge Ramos, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) declared that, as President, he would keep Barack Obama executive amnesty for DREAMers in place until it was permanently codified through legislation.

Jorge Ramos is the Univision Open Borders Rectum, who was thrown out of a presser by Trump last year.

If he ever became president, Rubio would be worse open borders, illegal immigration and amnesty than Obama.

He would be worse than Merkel has been in Germany.

Rubio needs to calm down. He’s starting to look coked-out every time he answers a question. He shouts louder and louder as he talks faster and faster. It gives me a migraine.

It appears that Rubio is a low life bottom feeder liberal.

Because he innately believes he is a hyphenated American first, and a sovereign American second (when it is convenient to show some kind of false patriot color.).

He is a snake and a liar.

Christie was very effective at exposing that Rubio is a robot programmed by his handlers to give canned answers to questions, only designed to get him elected.

Rubio is a democrat, but for some reason he's allowed to masquerade as GOP and he's certainly not conservative. Of course he would push amnesty!
