Border Patrol union president Brandon Judd introduced Cruz at a campaign event in Edinburg, Texas, on Tuesday and noted that the union typically does not seek candidates to endorse but said Cruz was a special exception.

“Sen. Ted Cruz is the only person that we’ve ever reached out to and said, ‘You are who we want, you have the morals, you have the ethics, you can bring true change to this country, you can secure the border,’ ” Judd said.
Judd called Cruz a “true friend of the border patrol” and said he hopes the senator someday becomes president.
“He is the same before, during and after the campaign. What he tells you he will do, he will do,” Judd said.
Judd said that Cruz is not anti-immigration, but instead “anti-illegal immigration.”
The endorsement comes as Cruz’s midterm opponent, Rep. Beto O’Rourke (D-Texas), reported Tuesday that his campaign raised a whopping $6.7 million in the first three months of 2018.
O’Rourke said his haul was higher than any Democratic Senate candidate in the country.
Cruz’s endorsement also comes on the same day that President TrumpDonald John TrumpSenate advances public lands bill in late-night vote Warren, Democrats urge Trump to back down from veto threat over changing Confederate-named bases Esper orders ‘After Action Review’ of National Guard’s role in protests MORE announced he would place military troops along the southern border to prevent illegal crossing until a wall is built.
