The Cruz cartel
Re the July 6 article Ted Cruz: ‘I salute Donald Trump:’ Ted Cruz on a recent Face the Nation constantly referred to illegal immigration as a problem the “Washington Cartel” doesn’t want to address.
My question is this: If Washington is the political machine he is referring to, and as an elected senator his job as a politician working in Washington is to enact legislation to resolve a variety of issues including immigration, does that not make Cruz a part of the Washington Cartel he keeps referring to as being the problem with illegal immigration?
