Cruz ran in 2012 with talk of stemming the tide of illegals. The above is a 2013 article that rails against him for his views of kicking out little kids and others that are here illegally.
Excerpt:
“...and in particular, to take off the table a path to citizenship. So I [Cruz] hope that’s what they choose to do.â€
Here’s the question Ted Cruz hasn’t answered: If there’s no path to citizenship, what are his plans for the 11 million aspiring Americans? It seems like there are three options: mass deportation, self-deportation or a permanent underclass.
We received some insights from Cruz on this subject last August, when he said Mitt Romney should end the Deferred Action For Childhood Arrivals Program (DACA)...
Asked by Telemundo whether Romney should reinstate deportations of young people granted deferred action, Cruz said, “I do.â€
[Compare to Trump’s views in 2012]:
Romney’s solution of “self deportation†for illegal aliens made no sense and suggested that Republicans do not care about Hispanics in general, Trump says.
“....It sounded as bad as it was, and he lost all of the Latino vote...He lost everybody who is inspired to come into this country.â€
The GOP has to develop a comprehensive policy “to take care of this incredible problem that we have with respect to immigration, with respect to people wanting to be wonderful productive citizens of this country,†Trump says.
Looking ahead, Trump says his top-rated NBC show “Celebrity Apprentice†is now shooting its 13th season....

Thanks for those facts. There’s a bit of a difference between saying “I do” when pressed on the question of deporting certain people that Obama’s illegal executive action tried to keep here, as Cruz did, and making deportation of all illegals the often-repeated, strongly felt key issue of your campaign, while also campaigning to end the anchor baby system, as Trump did. I think there’s no comparison. Cruz has often talked of a path to legal status, as well, when not pressed by someone on Obama’s “dreamers.”
