BS.
Oh yeah. I remember him filibustering for it right at the dinner hour so he’d get maximum TV exposure. Oh. No. That was something else.
Show me a quote where he said the word “wall”.
Trumpties don’t care about facts. They’ll just insult when presented with facts and scream make America great again.
Show me the bill he sponsored.
So he has been ineffective for 4 years? And this still doesn’t explain the soccer ball incident.
Actually, he was saying this in 2011. Not sure if Trump was still donating to Democrats then or not.
In 2013, Ted Cruz wanted to give 11 million invaders legal permanent residency so they would “come out of the shadows”.
Comments, Cruz has the RECORD..and Trump has the Euphoric words. The late personal secretary of Richard Nixon, felon Chuck Colson said, ALWAYS look at a persons history of voting, where he put his money, and NOT look at his words. I go with Cruz, not the guy who insults fat women.
Read “Time to get Tough”, it is from before 2012 and calls for a wall, controlling the border, etc. Cruz wanted a 5x increase in H1B visas and a doubling of legal immigration as recently as last fall until Trump’s success with his immigration policy paper forced him to modify those positions.
Ted had a chance to make this central to his campaign.
He chose not to. He thought all he had to do was get the Christian vote that stayed home in 2012.
He left the door wide open for someone to tap into the anti illegal sentiment in this country
We’re not getting real immigration reform (including a wall) unless congress gets their act together.
Cruz hasn’t been able to get the senate to cooperate with him. I don’t see that changing just because he changes from Senator Cruz to President Cruz.
Trump has decades of getting people to work together. I can guarantee you he’s had multiple contractors on projects who hate each other and blame each other and hate the inspectors and on and on. But he gets things done (and it seems on time and on budget). That means he can find win-win situations which all successful businessmen I know are experts at. He may not be able to do that with congress but I have higher hopes for him than Cruz.
This was posted a couple months ago and discussed at length. Cruz’s ‘support’ for a wall was in fact a typical political answer to a question from a debate moderator as to whether he would support a wall along the length of the Texas/Mexico border. He never brought the issue up on his own the way Trump did. If you know had to interpret these kinds of answers, it’s clear that it was political doublespeak designed to cover all sides of the issue, just like Cruz’s comments that the protesters in Chicago were responsible for the riots, but at the same time Trump is responsible for creating the climate for encouraging them.
When asked if he supported building a wall, Cruz responded (I’m paraphrasing) ‘Yes. I support walls, fences, increased border security, drones, everify, anything that works.’ If you don’t see the wiggle room Cruz provides himself with that answer, you’re not looking very hard.
why was he on the border giving out bears to illegals as they crossed then?
The speech referenced in this screed has Ted calling for a fence. Not a wall.
Typical.
When Trump says wall, he means something you bang your head against.
Cruz was running for President.
He’s been running for President since he and Heidi got together.
Pretty obvious now.
I thought a border wall was approved and its construction began during the Bush administration. What happened and why was it terminated and defunded?
