Cruz has said that we have to secure the border first before any action will be meaningful or successful. I say enforce the law and deport them.

“Cruz has said that we have to secure the border first before any action will be meaningful or successful.”

Yes, that is the line. Only thing, Eisenhower sent back a million plus without a wall. Sending them back IS securing the border.

The “meaningful or successful” line is weasel words for amnesty.

“Cruz has said that we have to secure the border first before any action will be meaningful or successful. I say enforce the law and deport them.”

The usual line is: “Once the border is secured, we can have a CONVERSATION about what to do with the ones already here.” We have had a conversation for how many decades?

Why not, “Once the border is secured, we will deport ALL illegals.”

Anything else means amnesty.
