He stopped the bill with poison pills. He proved amnesty pumps as liars. And you think that’s a bad thing?

It's a bad thing when Cruz misrepresents his opposition to include opposition to the granting of legal status. Cruz never opposed legal status. Never rejected legal status. And in multiple interviews throughout this campaign cycle wouldn't rule out granting legal status when directly asked.

If the Democrats were smart, they would have voted for Ted Cruz's amendments so that it could pass in the House. Instead of talking about deportation this year, we would have been talking about granting citizenship to the 40 million "former" illegals marching in the streets.

Because the Democrats lacked patience, they lost their big chance.

Cruz never opposed legal status.

It's been documented for you that Cruz fought against "legalization status" in 2014 and he called it amnesty.
