Sen. Ted Cruz said Thursday that if Republicans pass an immigration plan that allows citizenship they will lose the majority in Congress this November.

“Mark my words, if Republican majorities in Congress pass citizenship for millions of people, do amnesty, I think it is quite likely we will lose both houses of Congress,” Mr. Cruz, Texas Republican, said on Fox News.

Sadly, Ted Cruz may well be right.

How can they NOT hear the message in 2016?????

If they pursue this suicidal course, the GOP will once and for all mark itself as “the stupid party.”

We lose Congress and we lose the country for good! Too bad the troops we have in DC mostly don’t give a damn.

That’s the plan. I don’t believe they are as stupid as they let on. They’ve been opposing Trump as much as they can but there are limits when he’s the assumed leader of your party. Despite their best efforts, they are still winning the generic ballot for 2018... amnesty should fix that.

Then, Trump can be properly thwarted or impeached.

Yeah, like I’m going to believe lyin’ Ted about ANYTHING.
He also warns that Nancy Pelosi will take over and impeach Trump. Sure, Ted. Whatever. You STILL won’t be President.

Keep up the good fight, Ted. There are few Republican Senators who have not been corrupted by Open-Borders Lobyists’ money and still fewer who actually have the courage to stand up and fight those open-borders globalists.

IBTCH (In before the Ted Cruz haters).

Think about it, Ted. Are you saying that the public believes that the leftists will do more to curtail illegal immigration than the Republicans admittedly insufficient efforts? BTW, Ted, there’s this bridge to Brooklyn for sale, generates lot of toll money; I can get it for you...

I share that opinion. The only saving grace is that the rats are so bad they may lose despite the GOPe’s best efforts to throw the election.
