Cruz's legalization scheme had no such qualifiers that would have lead to "about half a million legal immigrants". His H1-B scheme would have caused the unemployment of countless Americans that are still trying to pay off those school loans.

You have no idea what you are talking about. First off, the H1-B proposal had nothing to do with legalizing illegal immigrants - it was specifically about visas for hi-tech workers. And there was a specific number of visas mentioned in the amendment, 325,000 visas.

And most ridiculous of all, you assume "the good" Illegals in Trumps plan would include nearly all Illegals.

Hey, at the time, the only ones Trump was talking about deporting were "the bad ones", i.e. the criminals. He was talking about legalization for the rest. You may not like it, but facts are facts.

I'm well aware of the difference.

"And there was a specific number of visas mentioned in the amendment, 325,000 visas."

I didn't specify a number.
But it looks like your ok with an additional 325,000 Americans on the unemployed/underemployed rolls. I'll make a note of it.

Here's the facts.
--"as Cruz proposed, some 11 million residents living "in the shadows" would "still be eligible for RPI status." (registered permanent immigrant)

Where's the "half a million" BS. That's right, nowhere because it's a fabrication. Cruz also wanted to double green cards to 1.35 million per year. But hey you're ok with 325,00 college grads unemployed, whats another 1.35 mil joe six-pack types on the street.

And of course you try to change the subject on Trump because you know you're wrong. And so are your "facts".
