“According to Tyler, Fox News took advantage of the fact that most voters are not familiar with how legislative battles work. Tyler pointed out that everyone in Washington, DC, at the time knew that Cruz was trying to insert “poison pill” amendments into the Gang of Eight legislation to kill the amnesty bill, such as inserting an amendment that would deny citizenship to the children of illegal aliens.”

The one thing wrong with that narrative is that is is wrong. The video Cruz made calling for legalization of illegals was not a part of the poison pill. His amendment had already failed.
