Ted Cruz on Sunday refused to address how he would handle the millions of undocumented immigrants already living in the country, despite hammering Marco Rubio this weekend for previously supporting a path to citizenship. Cruz refused to take off the table his own support of a potential path to legal status despite his cries against "amnesty."
"Let's demonstrate we can stop illegal immigration, we can protect our national security interests, we can protect our law enforcement interests," Cruz said after a campaign stop in Newton, Iowa. "Then once that's done, we can have a conversation at that point about whatever people remain here illegally."

He said they’ll have to apply.
Cruz has still said that illegals can stay.

Got it now?
He already took a huge hit on his middle eastern economic interests with his comments on muslims. Do you have any idea how serious it is when the crown prince of saudi arabia is attacking you?
Also, when you’re competing on business, you have to compete on a competitive basis in order to be profitable (however there’s no proof trump used illegals nonetheless). That’s why the news media has articles calling him ‘a traitor to his class’.
