You go research Cruz's actions during the Gang off Eight fight, not just selective sound bites

That was not a "selective sound bite" that was Cruz addressing the Senate Judiciary Committee. But there is more

Asked directly, Cruz had every opportunity to state that he didn’t intend for his amendment to be adopted or for the Gang of Eight bill to pass at all and in fact replied the opposite. At no point did he describe his amendment as a poison bill or procedural maneuver to derail the bill. He had every chance to say he opposed a legal status for illegal immigrants and didn’t do so.

At this point, there is no reason to believe that in 2013, Ted Cruz opposed a path to legalization (not citizenship) for illegal immigrants.

I remember very well what Cruz was doing in 2013. He was not doing what you assert.

Its just that simple. Any attempt to suggest otherwise is either ill informed or dishonest.
