I know lazy leftists want to keep their illegal help.
We want to keep our money.
A tax cap/legalization deal is possible.
To: TheThirdRuffian
Yes, we definitely deserve to know if what he says off the record isn’t what he is saying on the record.

I agree. Full openness, from all of them.
You first. No reason to do business with dishonest career politician confidence men like Cruzbio.
Let’s all those tax schedules, Rubio’s credit card statements, Cruz’s Super PAC secret campaign donor list, etc.
Release that and we’ll talk. Understand?

No, they’re gonna hold until oh September or so and then release it when it would damage Trump the most. Trump’s voters will fall off the bandwagon in a torrent and it’ll be too late to find and run another candidate strong enough to beat shillary/bernie/bloomie.

“If the NY Times had a bombshell story since Jan 5th...why did have they sat on it for nearly 2 months”
I would assume they would want the most liberal Republican they can get, given Hillary is a terrible candidate.

To: Stingray51
The article says that the statement at issue occurred during a portion of the discussion that the paper agreed was off the record. So now they go around leaking and likely muscharacterizing what Trump said in order to damage him or, in the alternative, create pressure on him to authorize releasing the transcript. This is sleazy, yellow journalism of the worst kind. Pathetic. The NYT Editorial Board is not running for President, so whether it is sleazy, yellow journalism is irrelevant. And if they have "likely mischaracterized" what he said, the best way to counter that is for Trump to authorize them to release the tape/transcript so his own words can speak for themselves.
And at the same time, the other GOP candidates should do the same if they participated in the same process.
To: TheThirdRuffian
We will find out soon enough. I suspect Trump will soften his immigration stance right after he gets nominated...then, if he wins the election, there will be less talk about walls, banning Muslims and deporting millions, and will chalk it up to “deal making” of which is his signature. Maybe a few actions here and there tightening rules by executive order, but not much else. The Trumps will be too busy trying to be the Kennedy's.

And smearing Trump with this is the “principled conservatism” of Ted Cruz.

Much speculation here.Doesn't hold a candle to the amount of explicit ignorance the US population has in regard to immigration law and what they perceive as "amnesty."

Didnt know there was such a thing as a thirteenth floor.It is the one after 12 and before 14. Some buildings skip the number 13, some don't.

My thoughts too, . Does any building have a 13th floor, because I have never seen any.

Trump has staked his presidency on the wall. If he doesn’t build it he will be a one term POTUS. Career politicans like Crubzio, OTOH, can BS along like they have the last 30 years.

I have no problem with complete openness.
I want to know if a candidate is a liar.

It will be stale news by then. Trump will have changed the narrative again, making those statements obsolete.
