So they’re fucking stupid then? He’s been anti-immigrant since long before he was elected. What did they think was going to happen?
Deport the “bad ones.” Not realizing that bad is having a skin colour away from mayo.
WHOMP
fucking
WHOMP
you were all warned and didn’t listen. You thought it was okay for him to subjugate “those illegals” because you thought you were the “good ones” so therefore it was okay to harm those groups.
Fuck you and enjoy not having a face
If they were getting rich from this they would have ice on speed dial.
The real quote " thanks to the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown and the shaky economy."
It’s the shaky economy that is their problem. They didn’t profit from the hollowing out of their community. They support the deportations. They got theirs. That’s why support is flagging.
And they’re all voting Republican again, because the Right To Work will make them rich.
Voting for things then getting mad at them is a Texas tradition. I had to stop talking to people because hearing people say “God damn [insert politician] rabble rabble rabble. I mean, I voted for him and will again, but fuck that guy.” Somewhere in their brain files is a line that says politicians are untrustworthy bastards and instead of fixing it they make it a self fulfilling prophecy.
All the people that can be convinced they are temporary embarrassed millionaires have been suckered by Republicans, Trump most of all. Unfortunately that includes people from all identity groups, although he really convinced poor and middle class whites the most.
Catholisism is the dominant cult among them. Them falling for obvious lies is kind of par for the course
My Catholic in-laws voted for Trump in 2016 because Biden was going to outlaw Catholicism, of all things.
Are Texans more religious than people in other states?
“We wanted you to deport the OTHER illegal immigrants from countries we don’t like. Not us!”
to be fair how would they know? he only insulted Latinos every time he talked about them, called them trailers and murderers, and promised he would deport all of them… like are they supposed to be mind readers???
Wow, what a bunch of fucking idiots.
Los morons
Hold on, let me check my stack of fucks…
Nope, I have no fucks to give to these idiots.
misogyny is a hell of a drug…
It’s way more than that, and way more complex than “woman bad”.
Not really. And it isn’t “woman bad”, it’s “culturally and religiously woman do x, y, and z- that list does not include lead”. Mexico addressed this head on my requiring political parties to nominate roughly equal numbers of men and women. North of the border, no such rules.
Climbed the stairs.
Voted to have the stairs pulled up behind them.
Turned out they also voted to get kicked down from the platform themselves.
Frankly, such immigrant rightwingers are the only bunch that actually deserve the tender mercies of the likes of ICE.
(And for any knee-jerking “identity warriors” out there, never forget that immigrants are like everybody else and thus amongst them, plenty of people when they think they themselves are safe from it (“I’m alright Jack”) are just as nasty hearthless and selfish “conservative” and even fascist as the Republicans)
…in my experience, first-generation-citizen demographics tend to skew hardest against undocumented immigrants; not sure whether that’s because they put in the time, effort, + cost to secure their own citizenship and thus resent those who haven’t done so in kind, or because they emmigrated to expressly to get away from their native demographic who comprise undocumented immigrants…
Yeah, my experience is somewhere in between.
First/Second Gens are anti-immigration. They’re used to political corruption keeping them from advancing. They see the right as creators of business opportunity. There are plenty of ways to exploit cheap labor and they can move up the food chain pretty quickly compared to home.
They don’t care at all about others in their situation; they’ll step on whom they have to in the move up.
Honestly, it’s the same view as a lot of the poor whites.
