    Easy he added an amendment to a bill allowing the legalization of immigrants and then lied about it TADA next


    OK I will be patient with you, congressional rules are difficult to understand. You are in error and to understand the tactic of a poison pill you need to understand the gang of 8, (of which Rubio was one dancing with the devil), is designed to kill the bill.

    I am taking an excerpt from an article explaining what Cruz did, and why. It was FAR from what Rubio says and Rubio knows it.

    EXCERPT:::::::::::::
    In painting Cruz as a supporter of legal status for undocumented immigrants, "the Rubio campaign is spinning," said Mark Krikorian, an immigration activist who was working to scuttle the 2013 bill. "My sense is Cruz's amendment was clearly intended as a poison pill for the Democrats. It was a legislative tactic... You often introduce measures you hope will be poison pills if you're trying to kill a piece of legislation. Now, it didn't work in the end but it was a perfectly plausible attempt. I might've voted for it myself it I was in the Senate, to try and kill the bill."

    Stephen Miller, a spokesman for Sessions, noted in an e-mail that "numerous conservatives offered amendments to the progressive Gang of Eight bill that were designed to improve enforcement or combat amnesty." He continued, "That does not mean these Senators supported the bill with those changes. That would be an extremely untenable interpretation."

    Ha ha [:D] he won in a state that can't even count votes so they flip a coin to see who won. That's really something to brag about. [:D][:D][:D]

    With as much as the establishment republicans and big-money wants to bring Trump down, Rubio, Cruz, and Kasich might be in it until the convention.

    Cruz is the only candidate running that has actually defended the second amendment. Supposedly gun rights matter to folks on this forum.

    It was obvious that Cruz introduced a poison pill with his road to legalization vs. road to citizenship amendment.

    What was disappointing about Cruz is that he did no own up to immediately. Most folks are smart enough to understand the tactic, and most GOP voters would support the tactic from a Senator in the minority party. Cruz, in initially denying that this was his tactic, told the GOP voter that he did not believe they were smart enough to understand this very simple action.

    Apparently, given the support we see for Trump, he was correct.

    You are more gullible then I thought

    Not that it matters Rubio is clearly the second choice and first of the Party so when and if Trump is out Rubio gets the nod over Cruz

    Trump has pointed out that military need to be armed
    will on base. (and the French too.)

    The politic as usual has not solved anything.
    I am not voting for ANY politician.

    Trump - 2A, immigration, reverse NAFTA! Obamacare.

    All good, if he can make it happen when he get there.
    If Trump can't, nobody can.

    To those who think Trump can't beat Clinton, the Republican turnout so far in the primaries are considerably higher than turnouts in 2008 and 2012 according to statistics from Fox News. Trump is the reason for the enthusiasm and not the other candidates. At the same time, the Democrats turnouts are down almost the same percentages in the opposite direction. Also, anyone who thinks that a person that presently only gets 5% of the Republican votes like Kasich has a better chance of beating Clinton than a person poling nationally at 49% is delusional or off his medicines.

    Fox just announced that they will no longer support Rubio and are looking for someone else.
