You’re just spewing lies and anti-American garbage. All of these illegal aliens getting “matricula” ID cards from the Mexican consulate are under the jurisdiction of Mexico.

What has he done about implementing a system to track and deport visa
overstays who comprise 40% of the illegal aliens.

Ahh, the gotcha question. So is this the reason every Tom, Dick, and Lucy Conservative
should vote for the NY-Democrat, Da'Donald who has not done squat politically?

Which candidate has proposed flying the Astrodome to the Moon, HUH?
See, you cannot answer that can you............

You asked what has Cruz done regarding illegals.....

Cruz names securing the border and stopping illegal amnesty among his top priorities.

....Cruz introduced legislation blocking President Obama’s expansion of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals Program. (GovTrack)

....Cruz introduced the Protect Children and Families Through the Rule of Law Act which would prevent the expansion of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program; reform the William Wilberforce Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act so unaccompanied minors can be expeditiously united with their families back home; and take steps to ensure that state and local officials have the resources necessary to protect the people in their communities and secure the border. (GovTrack)

....Cruz led the opposition to the Gang of Eight amnesty bill in the Senate Judiciary Committee (Senate.gov) and voted against advancing the bill. (Senate.gov)
After the president’s 2014 executive amnesty Cruz was one of the few Republicans to speak out about Republican’s need to keep their campaign promise. (Breitbart)

....During debate over a spending bill at the end of the 113th Congress’ Lame Duck session, Senators Cruz and Lee took to the floor of the Senate calling for a vote on President Obama’s illegal executive action on immigration. Cruz’s and Lee’s proposal did receive a vote, losing twenty Republicans in a 22-74 defeat. (Politico)

.....Cruz was one the primary opponents to Loretta Lynch’s nomination. Not only did Cruz vote no on the important procedural vote to move the nomination forward, but he also actively took to the floor leading opposition. (Politico) (Senate.gov)

“It does in our laws and there are millions of people who have gained citizenship this way. They exist.”

You’re right. It doesn’t do any good to try and argue that the chicks that hatched from the eggs the cowbirds from the south dropped in our nest are not citizens.
But if by this legal fiction the cowbirds themselves are not citizens, Trump is right: `Hasta la vista, baby!’

Go Trump! Sessions for VP. Cruz: US Attorney General. Time to get series.

Trump is still a NY Democrat without a political track record.

We've all heard the promises before Potomac fever sets in.

I believe your object is simply this "He's lying"?

Fair enough.

For sake of discussion, what if he's actually going to do what he says, any change of heart on your part?

I wasn't born yesterday, you're unable to get outside the box and imagine anything but destruction.

You'll have all sorts of excuses/reasons why you can't imagine anything but a lie, "It ALWAYS happens", "He's lying about everything" , but it will come down to this: You are unable to imagine anything but the worst.

Holy crap, you're not kidding. Conservatism and vetting be damned.
Star Search is over before it starts, Da'Donald has arrived on stage!

Now I remember why I stopped drinking, noticing what's around me is sobering.

Well Israel did the same thing, built a very big security wall after getting fed-up with terror attacks coming over their borders.

What have the politicians ever done?

Just this year , U.S. politicians made the Iran deal possible by all of them voting for the Corker bill. ditto for TPA and Obama trade(more immigration “trade in services” included) .That’s 2 more nuclear bombs set to explode against America.

No other politician has even said to deport all illegals. Trump is the ONLY one saying deport all illegals.

"Trump would end “birthright citizenship.”"

Even if birthright Citizenship cannot be immediately repealed, NOTHING stops the US from deporting their parents.

The parent may take their children with them.

When Obama said healthcare would be $2500 cheaper, was he lying?

Or did your crystal ball not show you?

if he is the candidate you watch the rats bring out every illegal to vote once, twice, thrice........they’ll do whatever they can to defeat him.

I'm sure there's a plan for that too.

It will probably involve some of us becoming poll watchers etc.

Cruz led the opposition to the Gang of Eight amnesty bill in the Senate Judiciary Committee (Senate.gov) and voted against advancing the bill. (Senate.gov)

Cruz offered an amendment to the bill that only changed giving citizenship to the illegals. He supported their legalization.

Cruz Tries to Claim the Middle Ground on Immigration

What Mr. Cruz has tried to articulate in both word and deed is a middle ground. It got no support from Democrats in Washington, but it goes further than many on the far right want to go by offering leniency to undocumented immigrants here already: A path to legal status, but not to citizenship. A green card with no right to naturalization.

“The amendment that I introduced removed the path to citizenship, but it did not change the underlying work permit from the Gang of Eight,” he said during a recent visit to El Paso. Mr. Cruz also noted that he had not called for deportation or, as Mitt Romney famously advocated, self-deportation. Mr. Cruz said recent polling indicated that people outside Washington support some reform, including legal status without citizenship. He said he was against naturalization because it rewarded lawbreakers and was unfair to legal immigrants. It also perpetuates illegal crossings, he added.

Besides barring citizenship while instituting some level of legalization for those here already, Mr. Cruz has proposed increasing the number of green cards awarded annually, to 1.35 million from 675,000. He also wants to eliminate the per-country limit that he said left applicants from countries like Mexico, China and India hamstrung when they tried to gain legal entry to this country.

What did Cruz do about border security or a plan to track and deport visa overstays. Any legislation?
