Senator Me Too! finally parrots what Trump has been saying since he announced.

I guess his globalist masters see that he’s going down, and gave him permission to cross that line.

Lies and more lies from DefeaTED. Just as he supported birthright citizenship for anchor babies before he opposed it. Cannot be trusted on this issue.

Actually, Ted Cruz has not changed his stance, like always it is and was enforce the law. But the low information voter will not know that because they never listened to any one anyway.

none of these candidates were talking any kind of deportations until Trump got into the race.

I don’t believe them now.

“Cruz has had this exact same immigration policy since 2011”

Oh?

Then why didn’t he spit it out when he was asked what he proposed to do with the millions of illegals remaining in the country after the border is secured?

Instead of telling the interviewer that he’d deport them, he said, “we can have a conversation about that”.

Ted has jumped the shark, man. He’s never had any intention of kicking the illegals out. Not even now.

Red meat for the naive. Nobody’s getting Mexico to pay for any damn wall. Delusionary.

Gawd, I used to think republicans were smarter than democrats but you people are just like a horse you can’t make drink after leading him to water.

You people never believe what is proof in video, audio or print. Friggen donnie is the second coming of Christ but you follow him and it won’t be where you think it is.

Y’all remind me of some people we have had working for us in the past. They get worked up over the slightest screw up and get in the red zone where no amount of logic will pacify them or calm them down. Next day they are let go and not eligible for rehire. In other words, you are hopeless.

Some people just want dictatorship, not the rule of law. That is until they find out the dictatorship does not consult them on how they think the dictator was going to do things. As they only remember the sound bites that tickled their ears, they never notice that the benevolent candidate promised everything to everybody.

Having been to lazy to actually read or study the focus of their man crush, they later are crushed when the benevolent candidate turns into the overbearing dictator he was all along.

Trump said he would deport then import those with a good work record.

Now Trump says Ted is a liar for quoting him.

One of them is a liar.

Quit being a sucker. Don’t you know evasion when you hear it?

The man was asked on national television what he’d do with the millions of illegals remaining in the country after the border is secured, and he said, “we can have a conversation about that” (or words to that effect).

Why didn’t he say right then and there that he’d deport them?

Answer that question or concede that Ted is not being truthful.

I’m glad to hear this, but it sure did take him a long time to get there. My opinion of Cruz noticeably dropped in Dec. watching him use weasel words to get out of answering this question directly.

“They’re just going for the “We’re like Donald Trump too! Vote for us instead!” effect.”

Except for the simple minded, this won’t work for either of them.

Trump already ate their lunch, drank their milkshakes and stole their strawberries.

He has said multiple times how his program works and it is explained in detail on his website. Essentially:

1. secure the border, wall/fence
2. install a reliable nation wide E-Verify system
3. institute stiff fines for employers per employee
4. remove welfare to illegals
5. eliminate citizenship for illegal children

Take away their ability to work, receive welfare or make money and they will leave on their own and and has been used successfully on a smaller statewide programs in Arizona and Oklahoma. Unlike donnies plan, they don’t get to come back.

Cruz has explained this many times and has been on his website for many, many months. Could be years because he talked about it during his campaign for the senate here in Texas in 2011/2012.

All you would have had to do is 5 minutes worth of research. Just 5 minutes, but no, you had to have unfailing faith in you new god, donnie.

Silly me.

I was nodding my head in agreement all through your post, right up to the last paragraph, when you just couldn’t help getting in a dig on myself and Trump.

You missed a perfect opportunity to build a bridge there.

Liar! Trump was first to say they must leave but could with no guarantee apply for a visa etc.

I want you to show me where on Donnie’s site it says he is rounding up illegals? I cannot find it. Only talks about deporting illegals.

To use your word, “import” does not mean grant citizenship. There is a difference between a work visa and naturalization papers. Ted is the liar.
