Trump And Cruz Trade Blows On Amnesty

In The Young Turks on YouTube by Hlarson0 Comments

 

Donald Trump has released an ad claiming that Ted Cruz supports amnesty for undocumented immigrants. In return, Ted Cruz has said that Trump is, in fact, the immigrant lover. John Iadarola (ThinkTank), Jimmy Dore (The Jimmy Dore Show Podcast), and Jonathan Harris , hosts of the The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

“On the campaign trail in both Iowa and New Hampshire — states thousands of miles from Mexico — Ted Cruz loves to talk about the border.
He repeats in his standard speech, town after town, that he will “finally secure the borders and end sanctuary cities.” It’s a big applause line for the conservatives of both states who support Cruz because of his tough stance on immigration.

But Donald Trump, who has recently escalated his attacks on Cruz, is accusing his closest competitor of not being tough enough.
Trump released an ad on Friday calling Cruz “pro-amnesty,” or in favor of allowing undocumented immigrants to stay in the United States unpunished. Cruz fired back, saying in an interview that Trump’s immigration plan is the one that amounts to amnesty.”*
