Here is exactly what I said: “Most of his voting record has obviously been pro-borders, and it’s debatable whether he did this in order to stay in the Republican Party for “pragmatic” purposes, but, considering this will be his last run for President and he has always announced that he’ll no longer be running for Congress, do you think amnesty has a chance?”
Meaning I said exactly what the video stated. My question deals with whether people on here believe his stance was true to his real beliefs or simply to stay in the Republican base. No Republican nowadays who wants to be elected is going to come out and say that he believes in amnesty. Lately he’s been much more opinion regarding his beliefs - as I said, claiming that he is a voluntaryist at heart (and here) - especially when it comes to borders and drug policy.
Because it’s quite possible that being sent back to Mexico, to them, is a much worse punishment.
