Nope. According to the news clips and twitter, Cruz and Paul were the first to speak of a moratorium.

Cruz said stop ‘refugee’ migration.

Trump went bigger.

We need a special corps to deal with the ‘Muslim Problem’.

The corps should have a special uniform and a special insignia.

Let me see. What could we use?

Oh. I’ve got it. Black uniforms with a skull and crossbones atop a black hat.

But instead of rigging up concentration camps here we should ship them all to Saudi Arabia that has enough space in their concentration camp for all of North America’s garbage.

I agree. I would like to see all Muslims deported. Their culture can never be compatible with ours and their presence is a threat due to the violent teachings of Islam.

Last year Ted Cruz introduced legislation to strip passports from those who go to fight for ISIS. Naturally the democrats declared it to be unconstitutional but I do know that it was legal in the past.

You are right. That has been the story all along. From the moment Trump gave his announcement speech, every single position he took was a position Cruz had already staked out. All Trump left out was religious liberty and abolishing the IRS.

No. Paul and Cruz were earlier. Trump uses shorter, punchier words like "ban" and "Muslims" so that he gets his mnessage across, at the loss of precision.

Cruz and Paul used country of residence as indicators.

I don't know how many jihadists or ISIS members are in, say Indonesia, so Trump's version might be more sweeping. On the other hand, Muslims may be permitted to lie as to whether they are Muslim or not. Making it religion based also brings up 1st Amendment issues. These can be worked, but it is more complicated.

Cruz has been leading on this issue all along. We have some obstacles in the Senate that need to be removed.

[Cruz and Paul were the first to speak of a moratorium.]

Yet Trump is the one who gets s**tcanned in the media.

If anything, that proves who the Democrats and the media cronies are most afraid of winning the nomination.

People need to wake up... Dems WANT Cruz to be the nominee, b/c he will be beaten handedly. It’s not what I would want, but it is reality.
