I can honestly say I did turn on Cruz. At one time he was my #1. After Trump entered the race I watched Ted draft Trump and say nice things up until he got caught on a secret mic in a meeting. He backed off somewhat after that but had to come out of the shadows as he likes to put it.

After that I did more research, found several times where he stated he would secure the border then have a conversation on what to do with illegals already here. Then he voted for cloture on TPA/Fast Track for Obama. That prompted more research and I found where Ted co-authored WSJ article pushing for TPA and more power for Obama.

Ted Cruz joins the establishment

That did me in. I thought Cruz was Mr. Smith Goes to Washington but he's just another politician working for the establishment. They have no choice actually, they already took the bribe and agreed to the terms.

Of all the deal-breakers I ran into with Ted Cruz, that was the biggest of them all. If elected President, Ted (as implied by his statement) would NOT deport the illegals currently colonizing our country.

Like a slippery, sleazebag lawyer, he talks about not giving them citizenship, amnesty, or legalization, but what fool believes the courts would let that stand? If they're allowed by our government to remain here, then they WILL be granted full amnesty and citizenship.

There is no second class citizenship in this country, and Cruz knows it. He takes us all for fools on this - the most pressing issue of our time.
