Ted Cruz: I've Been Singing Donald Trump's Praises On Immigration

Ted Cruz has been more(link is external) than(link is external) happy(link is external) to attack his Republican opponents for the presidency, save one: Donald Trump(link is external).

During an appearance on “The Jan Mickelson Show(link is external)” last week, Cruz insisted that “the Democrats support illegal immigration,” which led him to praise Trump for his remarks describing immigrants as rapists.

“It’s one of the reasons why I’ve been so vocal in the past couple of weeks defending Donald Trump because you’ve had a whole slew of 2016 Republican candidates running out of their way to smack Donald Trump with a stick, and not only am I not going to do that but I’ve been singing his praises,” Cruz said, before adding: “He is absolutely right.”
