Ted Cruz On Trump’s Amnesty Compromise: FORGET IT!

[catfish1957]

Yes he is.  If Ted says no then I believe we can get what is right.  No amnesty......

Wish one of our Trump orange contingent here would explain how Trump didn't cave on what was his signature campaign issue.

[catfish1957]

Cruz is such a phony, and he plays his followers for fools. In the real world we are going to have
to make a deal with the anti-American Marxists on migration. If we can get the wall, end chain
migration and get a merit based system I will take the deal.

You sure missed most of Trump's campaign speeches didn't you?  Trump and his lackeys are the phonies.

[skeeter]

16 months ago Cruz was saying what Donny is saying today. Maybe it's Freaky Friday!

Cruz always opposed the DREAM Act.

[catfish1957]

Careful you call a phony. Cruz is saying exactly what Trump was saying 16 months ago.

The Orangeist are beyond delusional.  What I would say would get me banned,

[edpc]

Bottom line is 70% of those immigrants here today legally come from chain migration. Given the high ratio of immigrants below the poverty line and on public assistance obviously the nation would benefit greatly by chucking chain migration altogether & going to a merit based system.

They're here because there's no real top down control over the program.  You don't get to be a general slob, leave food out everywhere, spill soda all over the place, and say it's the exterminator's fault you have ants.

[catfish1957]

Cruz always opposed the DREAM Act.

And like I said at TOS the day Trump announced his bid for POTUS.......   He is the ultimate political Trojan Horse.

Brace yourself folks.....   Hard left turn coming.

[catfish1957]

Yeah, let's keep chain migration, that is as many as 1.3 million new potential citizens a year. That's really using one's thinking cap, way to go Cruz.  Well, if one wants to give out virtually unlimited green cards, what does one expect?

And so do the Democrats reject it.

Do you ever get headaches in your silly attempts to defend this buffoon?

I like you @catfish1957 but this constant use of 'orange' as a smear is getting really old.

[Right_in_Virginia]

Do you ever get heartburn from the bitterness bubbling inside you?

@catfish1957
Wait a minute, you NTs have been saying he was a leftist all along.   How can he take a left turn if he's already on the left?

[Jazzhead]

Cruz is a self serving con man.

Agreed.   Amnesty for the Dreamers is both morally appropriate, and a small price to pay to get at least some of the immigration priorities that conservatives want.   Let's get the best bargain we can and make some incremental progress.   Doing nothing gets us - nothing (no matter how much we bitch and moan about the evil scofflaws who cut our lawns, care for our parents, etc., etc.) 

[Sighlass]

And just like that, another issue the Trump apologists brush aside to keep smooching Trump's butt. Trump is no orange buffoon, his faithful followers are. 

Running out of issues they can claim to still support under Trump is their problem.

Good grief, after Trump gets mopped up this next election, he could always do a few J E L L O commercials.

2015 called .... they want their talking points back.

[Sanguine]

No he's not....

“Doing so is inconsistent with the promises we made to the men and women who elected us.”

Who's the "we" he speaks of or does he have a mouse in his pocket? From what I can see there are a fair number of GOP'ers under the control of Chamber Of Cheap Labor who have been promising open borders for years. What sort of magic voodoo does Ted suggest to get these dopes to go fully into his camp?

Frank, the GOP'ers who voted for Cruz aren't for open borders.

[jpsb]

Texas Senator Ted Cruz is a firm “No,” regarding the amnesty giveaway.

“I do not believe we should be granting a path to citizenship to anybody here illegally,” Cruz told reporters

Cruz forgets that he is here illegally.

[Sanguine]

I don't pay attention to you after the name Ted Cruz is mentioned.

I know, right?  It's like on Charlie Brown: "wha, wha, wha, wha,wha, wha, wha, wha,wha, wha, wha, wha."

[Sanguine]

Cruz forgets that he is here illegally.

I think you're here illegally.

[Sanguine]

Bottom line is 70% of those immigrants here today legally come from chain migration. Given the high ratio of immigrants below the poverty line and on public assistance obviously the nation would benefit greatly by chucking chain migration altogether & going to a merit based system.

And, perhaps cutting back on immigration for a bit to assimilate, as much as possible, those who are here already.

[driftdiver]

Cruz forgets that he is here illegally.

@jpsb

Gosh you're funny.

[jpsb]

Trump is only talking about the DACA kids. Everyone knew something other than deportation
was going to happen to the DACA kids.

[jpsb]

Cruz always opposed the DREAM Act.

No he did not. I have to go but I will post a video of him proposing an amnesty back in the gang of 8
days when I get back.

Wrong.  ‘We’re going to keep the families together, but they have to go.’

No, you're probably one of the few who was privy to that secret interpretation of Trumpisms.

Watch it shimmer
See it glimmer
Cool and Fruity
Jello brand Trumpican
Of all deserts
You love the one
That debased the right
and makes cons run
Make Jello gelatin
And make some pun

Well, to be fair @jpsb ... Cruz seems to have forgotten that Congress gave *him* a path to citizenship.
