You need to realize that Mr. Trump is telling you what you want to hear. Donald Trump bragged, something to the effect, that all he has to do is mention BORDERS to get those who come to see him go crazy.

He’s pushing your buttons friend, but does he MEAN it?

“We are not talking about positions he has taken years ago before he became a Republican. In 2013, conservatives were fighting for dear life to oppose open borders, while Trump was not only supporting the Dream Act, but echoing the liberal politically correct talking points behind it. In August of 2013, he reportedly told a group of illegal aliens, “You have convinced me” of the need to pass the Dream Act.”

Now compare that with Sen. Cruz:

“Ted Cruz ran on conservative issues like building a fence on our border when he was elected, he has lived up to his promises in the Senate and he has run a consistently conservative campaign. Cruz is also not temperamental and you don’t ever have to wonder what he REALLY thinks about issues like abortion or health care. Perhaps even more importantly, Cruz has proven that he’s a fighter who’s not scared to go toe-to-toe with anybody from the Republican establishment to Obama, to the mainstream media.

Cruz’s consistent conservatism mixed with his willingness to fight is why he’s the ONLY CANDIDATE RUNNING who can absolutely be counted on to get rid of Obama’s executive orders, kill Obamacare, defund Planned Parenthood and build a fence on the border. “

I’m voting for TED CRUZ, the man with a proven record.

Yes, he is. And he has a storied reputation for delivering on his promises.

And while Cruz definitely fights conservative battles, he hasn't won any of them since he left the courtroom.
