Was the case where Cruz said he would support amnesty on the condition that the illegals wouldn’t get voting rights...and the Democrats choked?

So, playing games to call the Democrat’s bluff is now promoting amnesty?

If you give them legal status, a lib judge will give them all citizenship about 10 minutes later.

The poison pill BS is 100% spin.

Dr. K has a reputation of being really sharp so he must be pretending to not understand the legislative Jiu-Jitsu Ted played on the Gang of 8.

Note the reference to the Tribune interview. That interview occurred after the gang of eight fight was over.

The "it was just a ruse for the gang of eight fight bill," as problematic an argument as that is (because it means all his stated support for legalization during the gang of eight fight was a lie), doesn't resolve the problem.

Cruz cannot escape this argument. Unless Cruz's entire support base consists of the sort of people who might walk in on their spouse laying in bed with someone else, and then believing their lying spouse when she/he tells them they're hallucinating, then Cruz is just going into a world of hurt.

The media is going to keep asking him about legalization until the crack of doom.
