Bashing Cruz, Rubio defends shift on immigration

"Rubio said he's still in favor of legalizing millions of undocumented immigrants

Nuff said.

[Savage Beast]

That’s Rubio’s announcement that he will soon retire.

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

RuB.O. is just the Republican version of B.O.

Cruz went with the nutcase Glenn Beck down to the border in July 2014 to hand out soccer balls and teddy bears to illegal invaders. That makes me question Cruz’s judgment, first by associating himself with Beck, who almost everyone now thinks is a nutcase, and welcoming illegals.

He did so to highlight the human tragedy being created by Obama's immigration policy, not to encourage more illegal immigration. Is that so hard to understand?

[Boomer]

There are no non criminal aliens. If they are here illegally they are criminal aliens. Period.

[euram]

Handing out soccer balls and teddy bears makes it look more like a welcome party. If he had just gone down there on his own without Beck, and just had his people taping the flood of illegals is one thing, greeting them with gifts is something else altogether.

[napscoordinator]

Oh barf. That is sick even from you.

[Lurkinanloomin]

Rubio schemed with Schumer against the citizens and the rule of law. He still thinks fraudulently documented foreigners should get a pass on all the laws they are breaking to be here illegally.

Back stabbers should never be given more knoves.

For the win, Cruz needs to announce a path to permanent non-citizenship for anyone who meets certain standards. Deportation for those who don't. It's a winner.

[WENDLE]

Rubio is finished as VP. He was the establishments only chance. It will now be Newt and that is wonderful.

[Rastus]

It better be a constitutional amendment, because it won’t take long for the Supremes to say, “No, you can’t have permanent residents with diminished rights.”

[grania]

FWIW, a lot of us feel that permanent non-citizenship is a real bad idea. It creates a permanent class of second-class residents, and there children still become citizens, as children of people who came here legally.

Trump's answer is best. Send them ALL home. Let them start the process there, by rule of law. By doing it that way, anybody who stays under the radar and doesn't return home can be deported permanently.

[Mastador1]

Donde estaba Dondi ayer, donde esta hoy, y donde diablos se Dondi ser manana?

[Wally_Kalbacken]

We already have permanent resident aliens.

[moehoward]

Short story; Rubio accepted we demand enforcement first during GO8. Hence him a no show on the bill.

Frankly he now sounds pretty good on the issue, I just wish I trusted him.

[kik5150]

we don’t need Trump’s touchback amnesty which will allow a mojority back into the country through that “big beautiful open door”. What we need are the current laws to be enforced, with illegals deported without a chance to return. That’s the plan with Cruz.

[kik5150]

Look, I was a fan of Rubio when he was first elected. He has since proven to to be a liar and a supporter of amnesty. He’s dead to me.

[King Moonracer]

I’ve decided to be a campaign worker for Rubio. Like him, I never have to show up.

[grania]

Cruz has lost a lot of credibility with his not-too-long ago support for an increase of H1B visas five-fold, now connected with the obscured loans it looks like he's doing what his bankers want.

Trumps US jobs for US citizens and required use of EVerify is the best plan out there.
