Watch the video at link.

Ted was kind, respectful and firm. He empathized and instructed her on the rule of law. In short Cruz hit it out of the park.

If my father stole a pickup truck and gave it to me, would it legally be my pickup truck?

If someone’s parents break the law the child is placed in foster care in a country of their parent’s citizenship.

CASE CLOSED.

So if your parents both robbed a bank after you were born and they finally caught them after 15 years they would put you in a foster home.

Something similar should happen to “dreamers”

DREAM act

Acts are actions of congress. It was an executive order.

He was polite and elegant, but a simple "YES" would have worked too.

-— “I would note, if you’re a DACA recipient it means that you were brought here illegally, and violating the laws has consequences,” Cruz told the woman. “And one of the problems with our broken immigration system is that it is creating human tragedies and there are human tragedies when people break the law.” -—

Right. When we send a father to jail, a child will not have a father. Crime has consequences.

Yep...

If it was Bill Clinton, he’d hit it and hide it.
If it was Barack Obama, he’d give her free health care, welfare, free education and voting rights.
If it was Hillary, she’d lick it and hide it.
If it was Trump, she’d be building the border wall on the southern side.
If it was Bernie Sanders... he’d just holler. Dementia has taken it’s toll.
If it was Ted Cruz.. well we saw what he did. He handled it the way it should handled.

Good point. I’m sure she wouldn’t like it if my dad stole all her stuff and gave it to me. I bet she’s glad some laws are enforced. Does she have a driver’s license, SS#, etc.?

No, but if she registers Republican I’ll bet Obama deports her ASAP.

Ofelia Valdez, 30, Immigrant youth?

Interesting. When I was 30 no one ever called me a youth. But then that was back in another century.
