Don't worry, the ones that voted for him were one of the good ones.
Remember when his supporters thought we were irrational for thinking he'd go after people who are in the country legally? Next step, he'll take citizenship away from naturalized citizens, then children of immigrants, then Puerto Ricans and anyone who isn't white
But Cubans love to vote republican to stop the communists.
This is a real argument. They saw bad things happen under communism. This is a different flock, but the same bird.
I feel bad for the community.
True, but these people weren't permanent residents so they didn't vote for this shit.
They definitely aren't permanent residents now, that is for sure.
No, but I expect many will be family
Wow that's alot of terrorists. \s
Seriously tho words have no meaning to fascists.
I lived in Florida for a while. Nearly all of the Cubans there were racist redhats and loved Trump. They fucked around and now they get to find out.
Man this hits hard. They really are pulling up the ladder behind them.
This transactional relationship with minority groups is precisely why Democratic popularity among minority groups is slipping. You pretend to stand for racial justice as a principle. Then, the moment a racial group no longer supports your movement, you abandon your principles of racial justice. You join with the fascists and openly celebrate that group's persecution. Yet you still ask other minority groups to vote for you, as you stand for racial justice, LGBT rights, etc. Yet how can people not see what is in front of their very eyes - the moment support for their group becomes politically inconvenient, that group will be thrown away like an old tissue.
The same Democrats who said that people needed to ignore Palestine in order to protect LGBT people are now those throwing the trans community under the bus.
I agree with you that its an issue, but surely you see that its a part of human nature to experience some kind of validation when a person / group learns a lesson they could have not learned the hard way by listening or reasoning. The whole leopards eating face thing.
I dont think its a beautiful part of human psychology but I think its hard to overcome especially when emotions are already high.
I personally find it sad, but I believe just like in 2016 there's a bunch of aggressive social media manipulation going on and I see it as people being scammed into believing something in contradiction to their own self interest.. And much like an elderly person scammed into handing over money I find it really sad.
Russians citizens living in the USA are now called "citizens++".
Except for Navalny supporters, they get Gulag+
I was just about to say. Russians are perfectly fine. No problem.
That's double plus good
The one group we probably should toss out.
Don't you mean comrade++
Hopefully some federal judge will stop this nonsense.
Does this asshat realize that the only non-immigrants in this country are the Native Americans? I mean even after 9/11 there weren't mass deportations of people of Middle Eastern descent. Racism and prejudice, yes, but this is ridiculous all because of Fentanyl?
I have a better and more empathetic idea -- meet people where they are and help them find a path that works for them to get out of the addiction spiral. This is just going to lead to an increase in drug prices, which will lead to even more crime.
Fentanyl is not the reason. It’s just the excuse
Do you actually think Trump or anybody in his circle has empathy? They have all shown that it's a foreign concept to them.
“The fundamental weakness is empathy,” Elon Musk recently told radio podcast host Joe Rogan. “There is a bug, which is the empathy response.”
It goes farther than that, it's a Republican issue and has been for decades. Trump is just saying the quiet parts out loud.
And traumatizing the fuck out of me because I grew up with a narcissistic parent and was subject to her wildly changing decisions, gaslighting, and her always saying the quite part out loud as if they are incapable of thinking without speaking.
Does this asshat realize that the only non-immigrants in this country are the Native Americans?
Yes, they are fully aware that when they talk about "immigrants", they aren't actually talking about immigrants, they are talking about people who aren't white.
The actual goal of the "I don't like these illegals" people is to make the US a white ethno-state.
Does this asshat realize that the only non-immigrants in this country are the Native Americans?
Watch out. He'll try to deport all the Native Americans to Northeast Siberia. Their ancestors were just very, very early illegal immigrants.
They told a Native American to go back where he came from so, no, they do not understand.
They're not exactly trying to implement a sensible and logical immigration policy though.
If you're not pre Clovis, get out!
Wowwwwwwww
So like… Miami’s taking a hit there
Has he run out of immigrants entering illegally already? He’s so efficient!
Who the hell would want to come to this country with all this shit going on?
People in countries the US destroyed/destabilized. Like always
Why go to US when anywhere else is better ?
They got old information pre-2024 and they haven’t received info about the new update.
Decades of propaganda advertising it as the greatest country in the world makes people want to move there. Also you can get paid in USD and send money back home
Ehh , id preffer Germany over US any day of the week
They got old information pre-2024 and they haven't received info about the new update.
This is what you voted for protest-non-voters.
Not much choice between two genocidal candidates. And genocide joe attacked migrants during his whole term continuing and expanding the policies of Trump. But go ahead acting self-righteous.
This is what you preferred to abandoning netanyahu.
The outgroup must grow to feed the machine
Trump, a Republican, took steps to...
Oh thank you Guardian for clearing that up. Absolutely no one knew that 🙄
You vastly underestimate the ignorance of the American people.
I thought The Guardian was an English publication?
It is but it’s commonly read in the US. But maybe this applies to the English too. I have less direct experience there.
But I guess it is a bit more reasonable to remind foreign readers of Trump’s party affiliation since presumably the English spend at least a little less time thinking about US politics than we do.
It is.
That's an army sized number of people who will be sent home to go through hell.
Oh well, it's what the Latin community wanted and Cuban Americans are saying that they have no regrets so let them have it.
