TPP, H1B's and H2B's are NOT Conservative ideas, and Ted Cruz is in favor of all three. All three, at the expense of American's having American jobs.

In fact, they ARE conservative ideas. Fast track has been around since the 70s and H1B's have been around since the 60's Reaqan used fast track, and both were reauthorized in the 94 (Conservative) Congress.

TPP - You probably mean TSA, or Fast Track, which is wholly benign, being nothing more that a structure within which trade agreements are fashioned... All it does is allow the administration and the Congress to interface at the committee level to fashion an agreement that will probably make it through a vote - You've got to be an idiot if you think that takes anything away from 'the American worker'. All it does is expedite the process of forming trade agreements.

TPP is the Trans-Pacific Pact, a trade agreement, which hasn't even been brought to vote yet.

Likewise H1B's - You fail to mention that Cruz supported H1Bs with the contingency that they could only facilitate the hiring of foreign workers if they were paid the going American wage - thus attempting to FIX the only legitimate bitch you have, that H1Bs are being abused. That is not Cruz being *for* the status quo H1B, and thus your statement is wholly disingenuous.

In the mean time, perhaps one should look into Trump's use of H1B foreign workers in his own holdings, and understand the hypocrisy of your position.

You got me thinking, I wonder if Treump actually does make use of the program...

Low and behold, he sure does... Across many of his companies in fact...

All of the Trump supports probably need to make sure they understand the weasel they are lining up behind...
