So he had dinner with them? Wow. That’s bad. He certainly has not spoken up for open-borders when I’ve listened to him, n-e-v-e-r.
He’s always has been “let’s build the wall first, then talk after.”
What he was asked to do at that dinner in NY was simply to decrease his criticism of the immigration reform package that the Gang of Eight was proposing. So you wouldn't have heard him "speaking up for open-borders," you would have heard less criticism of immigration reform or no criticism at all.
