He said Cruz is a bit of a maniac on the Senate floor referring to the shows Cruz puts on about fighting for the right. Cruz is a politician, more conservative than most but a politician. He grandstands on the Senate floor yet is pro-amnesty.
Has repeatedly stated he does not want to send them back, path to citizenship, wants to bring in exponentially more green cards, H1b visas, and wants no per-country limit on applicants from countries like Mexico, China and India
Cruz dodges questions on this repeatedly yet no one calls him on it. Also lots of excuses for TPA cloture vote but again for cloture then show vote. Cruz knew going in that this was fast track for a tyrant yet voted for cloture, supported it publicly in the beginning which gave it support.
I like Cruz and he’s the best next to Trump but these are not minor issues. And Trump’s right, Cruz does the grandstanding thing to gain right-wing support but it’s hollow except what it does to his reputation..
Trump came out day #1, going to seal the border and send them back. Has never backed down. He wants to stop refugee program, restrict Muslim immigration, renegotiate all Congress’s payoff trade deals, and he is over-the-top pro-2nd Amendment.
Don’t let the press make your mind up with their snippet reporting. Look at what these people stand for, not just what their saying.
do you mean more of the same DC “pretend fighting”?
Just because Cruz says that the border must be secure first, does not mean he’s for amnesty. He is right. If we don’t secure the border first, then deporting illegals will be useless as more will just sneak across. The border MUST be secured first. It would be like putting a horse into a barn, but not closing the door. The horse would just sneak outside again.
Cruz has always opposed a path to citizenship and his plan calls for enforcing current deportation laws. He is also now sponsoring a bill with Sen Sessions to reform the H1B system. So please take your misinformation elsewhere.
