Good luck getting the Mexicans to pay for it.

“Good luck getting the Mexicans to pay for it.”

That would be easy.
When illegals are caught sentence them to 18 months labor building the wall. Three hots, a cot plus shelter and 44 hours a week pouring concrete.

All the gang banger types and cartel cadres could learn areal work skill

Obviously there is hyperbole in the statement above using Mexican labor humane but essentially subsistence rates would be a way to make Mexico pay

Suggest that, before responding, you sling the iPad over your shoulder and gently pat it on its bottom...:-)

Money for the wall has already been allocated. We should find out where the heck it went!

None offered the same answer as to whether a wall should be built along the Texas-Mexico border. Cruz said he supported the project. James said he didn't. Dewhurst said a wall "in certain places" made sense. Leppert didn't give a direct answer but said he wanted to more "accountability" for immigration enforcement.

Cruz did NOT call for a wall...Dewhurst called it a wall while Cruz envisions a fence...Trump sees a wall as in an Israel type wall...Cruz sees a fence...

So no, Cruz did not come up with a wall idea before Trump...

Sounds to me like Ted Cruz plans on deporting illegal aliens, period, when they are caught, "when illegal aliens are apprehended, they should be deported."

Does that put your mind at ease?

NO...When Trump gets the wall up there won't be any illegal aliens to apprehend...

It's pretty cut and dried, and the "criminal illegals" he's talking about are the violent convicted criminals released here by the busload during the Obama administration.

But he'll let millions upon millions of non violent criminal illegals stay here...That's not my vision nor is it Trump's vision...

Another part of the tape you should hear is where Cruz says: "I categorically oppose amnesty."

Cruz opposes amnesty, but he doesn't...Amnesty is not giving one American citizenship...Amnesty is a pardon for a crime committed...Letting illegals stay here without penalty IS Amnesty...

But mass deportations make such better TV!

Not only make better tv but the idea puts Trump at close to 40% while Cruz hovers in the single digits...

but Trump is more electable.

I doubt that.

Do you have anything to base that on???

If you're going to make these claims about Cruz, LINK TO SOURCES that informed you and led you to that opinion. Otherwise, you are only bluster and talk and opinion. When I make a claim about either candidate, Trump or Cruz, I can or have already linked to a source to prove that the claim is legit.

Trump supporters seem to be spoiling for a confrontation with illegal Mexicans. Mass deportations -- a purely government-force "solution" -- where an effort is made to root out illegals, would result in race wars, bloodshed, and strife. People are so angry that they lust for it. They seem to seek vengeance -- and THAT is something that belongs to only One, and it ain't Trump, you, or me.

I have a feeling that no matter what Cruz says (he offers an authentically conservative, common sense solution of enforcing laws already on the books, getting rid of sanctuary cities, halting government assistance to illegals, and arresting and deporting illegals as they are found) -- that no matter how straightforwardly Cruz states his position, you will always have an accusation at the ready (with no actual source to prove it) that he doesn't mean what he says.

Trump is looking more and more dangerous by the minute. I pray patriots wake up in time.

halting government assistance to illegals

Really??? What are you and Cruz going to do with the millions of illegals who are instantly out on the street without food???

Show one instance where Cruz says he's going to build a wall...Not a fence, but a wall...Just one...

Did you look at the Newsmax article that started this whole thread? Because it's right there.

"halting government assistance to illegals" .... Really??? What are you and Cruz going to do with the millions of illegals who are instantly out on the street without food???

The millions of illegals instantly out on the street without food will run into law enforcement, who will find out that they are illegals, and then they will be deported. As per Cruz's clearly stated policies.

That in essence is no different than Trump's plan...
