Again, as a matter of perspective— which seems irrelevant in this thread— Trump WANTS a lot of things that the base wants.
What has Trump done that leads you to believe he would do what is WANTED?
Take the immigration issue. Somehow, the mere fact that Trump says inflammatory things seems to suggest to his supporters that he will do something dramatic.
Cruz on the other hand has some pretty impressive actions.
The most important is that he defeated the Bush administration’s defense of capital case illegal immigrant that the Bush administration wanted to use international law to stop the exception of a Mexican national who committed murder.
Cruz argued on behalf of the state of Texas in front of the Supreme Court that Texas should be able to execute the Mexican national and the Bush administration was wrong.
if cruz had merely argued the case at the SC level— he would be more substantive on immigration than Trump.
But Cruz won the case and Texas executed this illegal immigrant guilty of a capital crime.
That is real action. What in the world has Trump done that is so impressive on illegal immigration?
Why would he not allow immigration that helped his sense of business and making money?
Do we even know how regularly his businesses hire illegal immigrants?
I don’t think we do.
I think that is probably why Walker said build a fence with Canada. They thought saying absurd things about immigration was all the base wanted.
Why don’t actions matter?
Why don’t actions matter?
Votes and only votes matter.
