Steve Miller spoke this morning at the Donald Trump town hall in Racine, Wisconsin. Miller destroyed Ted Cruz on the senator’s immigration and trade record. Miller pointed out that Ted Cruz supported the Trans-Pacific Trade Deal that will cost the US millions of jobs.
Cruz also pushed to expand Muslim immigration into America. This is despite the fact that Obama has issued 68o,000 green cards to immigrants from Muslim countries in the last five years.
The Cruz amendment would have doubled the number of Muslim immigrants to America to up to 1.35 million.
Steve Miller added,
“Why is it that our media is more concerned with Donald Trump’s tone than illegal immigrants killing her Americans… Washington weeps no tears for these dead Americans. Instead Washington says you should be concerned about Donald Trump’s tone!… This is your once in a lifetime opportunity that will not come again!”
The Washington Examiner reported on Cruz’s support for expanding Muslim immigration in America.
The Washington Examiner reported:
Plans pushed by GOP presidential candidate Sen. Ted Cruz under the immigration reform debate in 2013 that would have jumped the number of immigrants, including those from Muslim nations, were raised by the Trump campaign Tuesday.
Under the Cruz plan, yearly legal immigration would have gone from 740,000 to 1,675,000. He said his idea was to actually help kill the bill not boost the numbers.
“I was introducing a whole series of amendments, in part to demonstrate the hypocrisy of the Democrats. So, for example, the Democrats claimed they were supporting high-tech workers, so I introduced an amendment on that, every Democrat voted against it, which demonstrated that this was all a political endeavor for them, that what they were saying wasn’t true,” he told radio’s Laura Ingraham.

False ... so would you rather lose with faux Conservative of your choosing ?
Thanks Hojczyk.
I preferred Rubio for other reasons, but Cruz opposed the Gang of Eight. People are making disingenuous argument to the contrary based on his quotes at the time, while knowing that the ethics of a poison bill is that you have to feign support for the underlying bill.
Trump is leaving a trail of bodies of all the people we need to try to turn this country around. He'll probably win the nomination, and then he and his supporters will cry like hell when all the people they smeared and insulted don't leap to support him.
There was a reason for the 11th Commandment.
I hope it’s not true, because I wouldn’t vote for him if it were true.
CRUZ WEB SITE: In 2013, Sen. Cruz proposed amendments to the "Gang of 8" bill that would strengthen border security, expand green card opportunities, increase high-skilled "H1B" visas, prevent illegal aliens from receiving welfare benefits, and enforce the rule of law.
Even after the bill died, when Cruz had the opportunity, he did not identify his amendment as a "poison pill." Cruz glaringly omitted his current stance....that he was only bluffing.
The reason Cantor lost is because of those Senators who fought hard against the bill, and so made it a major issue. Their fighting, in large part, is what helped the American people to wake up and stop it in the House.<p.
I know you won’t admit it, but that’s what happened.
Oh yeah.
I’m right here at home.
He loved the bailouts and TARP and wants to nationalize the banks- what could possibly go wrong?
LOL ! @ post 31
Looks like he drew blood.
Macho City
WTH is Steve Miller? Yes, I live in a closet.
I went to grade school with a Steve Miller.
He rode on the little bus so I never got to see him often.
I know you won’t admit it, but that’s what happened.
Oh I admit it. That is why Cantor lost. We tried to send a message “no more rinos” but still they keep pushing them on us. That was a turning point for We The People.
Twirl baby, twirl!
that’s a riot...
He's a Joker, He's a Smoker, ..........He's a midnight Toker
Cruz’s former boss did the same exact thing.
Cruz and Heidi was legal GOPhers for the Bush dynasty. After 911 Bush allowed in more Muslims into the U.S. than had been allowed in the two previous decades.
Do not trust any of these people.
Steve Miller added;
“Teddy Cruz is a Senator in Texas
You know he knows just exactly what the facts is
He ain’t gonna let those two escape justice
He makes his livin’ off of the people’s taxes.”
“I have decided. I will never vote for Trump. he is not a real conservative.
Of course he isn’t. That’s why I’m voting for him - but he’s conservative enough to tell the truth, build a wall and get DC under control. That’s a great start.
To each their own.
Teflon Cruz. Won’t matter till they screw the pooch and give the nomination to Cruz then it will matter.
