Cruz is my senator, and if he's not doing what we sent him there to do he should be replaced by a more conservative candidate. Cruz might have sold out the entire country already as it is, just to bring Fast Track to the floor, and even voted against an amendment that would have required Congress to approve or deny China if it attempted to join TPP. Now China can join TPP anytime it wants to.
If some other candidate comes around here in Texas to replace Cruz in the senate, I will support that candidate over Ted Cruz. And, of course, after witnessing his deception on immigration, I will NOT support him for the Presidency, and will just stay home on election day.
You are being deliberately obtuse
But that's a lie.
I'm being told on this forum that Cruz didn't support legal status, even though I have multiple quotations from Cruz showing that he did support it. I'm being told that he wasn't "really" supporting legalization, even though he went in front of cameras or went to journalists and boasted that his amendments to the Gang of Eight bill "never undermined the underlying work permits" of that bill, and that he opposed deportation and even "self-deportation."
You have to be really, really, really stupid to buy this crap from our so-called "conservative" media and our so-called "true conservative" candidate!
You don’t understand that the whole point of the amendments was to be able to demonstrate in the press that the gang of eight didn’t want legalization but instead would only settle for immigration. Thus he made press statements talking about how his amendments would give legalization but not citizenship. He did this knowing that his amendments would be rejected and thus create a wedge between the most hardline amnesty supporters like Rubio and wavering conservatives who were debating whether or not to support the gang of eight bill. His strategy worked and the gang of eight bill was defeated. Maybe you would have preferred that he made a futile speech against amnesty and then sat on the sidelines and allowed it too pass.
