Cruz has not contradicted himself...show me where?

Ted Cruz May 2015:

Sen. Cruz. “I am a strong supporter of free trade, but I cannot support legislation that would allow the President to once again circumvent Congress to enact his own immigration laws.

Ted Cruz in June 2015:

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) argued Trade Promotion Authority (TPA) “is not giving the president more authority” and that Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) is “not accurate” in some of his claims regarding the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) on Friday’s broadcast of “The Kuhner Report” on Boston’s WRKO.

Now, you tell me how to reconcile those two statements.....especially since, after the first statement, Cruz introduced an amendment to "fix" the TPA (meaning, he thought there was a danger) and prevent Obama from altering immigration laws. But that amendment failed by a big margin.

...and then, Cruz voted for the unaltered and unrevised bill anyway, but now wants to tell us the second quote above.

Now, Sen Sessions has been sounding this alarm from the beginning, and has voted against TPA.

Either Sessions or Cruz is lying....and Sessions has not contradicted himself.
