‘he immediately got to work speaking out against it and organizing the House to stop it.’

No he did not. It is impossible to oppose amnesty without opposing the Dream Act. (The Dream Act would have legalized them ALL.) It would have been equally impossible to oppose the Dream Act without opposing the one person principally responsible for pushing it: Cantor. But you cannot find One Single Quote from Cruz opposing Cantor.

And that is because There Was None.

I guess I don’t understand what you are saying.

Are you claiming that this whole article from October of 2013 (9 months before Cantor’s defeat) is made up?

Is this all fiction. Cruz didn’t actually oppose the Gang of 8? Like the people giving quotes in this article don’t know what they are talking about? Or maybe they are all lying? Maybe some evil globalist Trump hater went back and edited the article. Is that it? Good thing we have you here in 2016 to tell us what Cruz actually thought and did at the time.

Dude, wake up. Ted Cruz was instrumental in leading the charge against amnesty. The fact that there was a battle over amnesty helped Dave Brat get elected. I don’t know why you can’t understand that.

It would be like saying an outspoken Soviet critic getting elected to the House in 1984 had nothing to do with Reagan because Reagan didn’t specifically endorse the guy.
