See you don’t remember very well. Remember all the lying democrats and GOPe’s that said they wanted a way for them to come out of the shadows and it’s not about getting new liberal voters? So Cruz said ok, since we all agree on legalization then let’s just do that and never allow citizenship. Then the cockroaches went crazy trying to avoid the light he just shined on them.
And anyone with commonsense knows what cruz just did...in fact, the liberals hated him for it and said he doesn’t really want legalization but he wants to stop them from being citizens. So Cruz obviously had to say “Oh now I want more than anything for them to be legal so let’s just do that and not allow citizenship”. He knew they’d run for the hills and he was right. That’s EXACTLY as I remember it at the time.
BTW: I’m not thrilled with Cruz though either. I was pissed about TPP/TPA and hated on him during that fiasco. Since I keep current on issues I don’t need the liars in the press to spin it for me years later.
Mmmhmmmm, and what did Cruz say in December? "I have never supported legalization."
He knew they’d run for the hills
The bill passed the Senate. No one in the entire country was confused about what the Democrats were doing.
