Jake Tapper just did. That's who Cruz is responding to.
The beginning of the article has this:
“Creating a contrast with Donald Trump, Sen. Ted Cruz ruled out the use of a new federal “deportation force” to seek and deport illegal immigrants.”
Not that I am against a federal “deportation force” since deportation is already the law, and Cruz says he will enforce laws that are on the books, not just the ones he agrees with. I suppose since he doesn’t agree with a deportation force he chooses not to enforce the law.
