Trump is the biggest amnesty pusher in the election.

NC, my good FRiend,

I neither like nor trust Mister Trump.

And, I would agree that the inner-Trump probably supports amnesty for illegal aliens.

But, super fungal salesman that he is, Mister Trump hasn't actually "pushed" amnesty.

Yet.

(That would come after the election.)

Agree. And I’m no longer surprised.

Is there a ceremony for a bromance?

Yes he was, but to be fair I thin that was his parent’s doing.

Maybe Santorum is bitter that his campaign for 2016 went nowhere though he was excellent in all his debates. I can’t see Rubio having the needed energy to take out Mrs. Bill. He will be as deferential as Romney was to Obama.

Santorum once endorsed lefty Arlen Specter over a
true conservative candidate.  His endorsements stink.

Yes, but Trump also says (in his position paper) that employment must recover before we start letting people in.

I wish he would emphasize this... Or that someone would question him about it. It is an issue that needs discussion.

Yeah, if one of your themes is we are going to win so much that you are going to get tired of winning, you can’t start off by losing.

Just can’t do it.

They have both changed their positions on immigration. I don’t trust Cruz or Rubio.


Maybe I’m missing something but I don’t remember Cruz changing his mind on “illegals” (it’s NOT called “immigration”, by the way).

I do remember when Cruz was running around saying that if Illegals were not allowed to vote under their so called immigration reform bill that they would NEVER support the bill in the first place because they want the illegals as a new voting block. So, to prove his point, Ted Cruz put forward an amendment that said that the illegals could NOT become citizens NOR will they ever be allowed to vote. Knowing that such an ammendment to the bill would never pass, Ted Cruz mocked them and bluffed claiming that uder those circumstances he could support immigration reform.

Anybody who had followed that bill knew what was going on and where Cruz was coming from. To use those words (described above) in political ads and claim that Cruz changed his mind is very dishonest.

Marco Rubio, on the other hand, has never seen an illegal he didn’t like and JOHN MCCAIN and yes JEB BUSH will be more than happy to see their mam, Marco Rubio win the nomination.

There is only 1 of 3 who will become the nominee. Ted Cruz or Donald Trump or Marco Rubio. If we let the first two (non establishment) guys go at it and destroy each other we will be left with the other guy... Marco Rubio.

This process is sorting out the RINOs from the rest. How Santorum can endorse an amnesty supporter and a Gang of 8 leader who wanted to triple legal immigration to 33 million over the next decade given Sanatorums alledged positions on immigration demonstrate how little principle he has.
Santorum has demonstrated why he just another political hack with a huge ego. Trump has made them all drop their veils and expose who they really are.


And this it’s showing how comfortable many of Cruz’s supporters are with amnesty. Cruz can say and do anything as long as he wears his religion on his sleeve and they will support him.

Good to know. Rubio has collected Toomey, Scott, and now Santorum.


Don’t forget Gutierrez and Schumer.

I defended Santorum against those charges in 2012. I now see you and others were correct. My apologies.

He just endorsed the biggest amnesty pusher in the election. Doesn’t make sense.

It does if you're a Roman Catholic.
