She's probably better off without him.

[–] Vinny_93@lemmy.world 100 points 2 days ago

Yes only deport the other illegals, not the ones I know and love.

No humans are illegal, it's sad how selfish people are these days

[–] thefluffiest@feddit.nl 53 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It was never about legal or illegal. It was always about skincolor.

You get nothing. Good day, sir.

My Latina wife is hot, therefore she deserves a visa.

The Melania Clause.

Have the day you voted for!

At no point in the last ten years did they once clock the fact that “illegal” was always said with a 😉

[–] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 18 points 2 days ago (2 children)

This is the one issue where I have no sympathy.

Donald lied about everything else, but he was 100% honest about his intentions on immigration.

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

The media mostly lied about it, too, greatly overstating how many people were here "illegally"

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 0 points 2 days ago (2 children)

No he wasn't. He said he was going after the hardened criminals and gangbangers. Far as I'm aware, the vast majority have committed no real crimes except immigration, and a shit load of people who didn't even violate that.

[–] fodor@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Almost no immigration violations are crimes, my friend. They are civil infractions.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Exactly, a misdemeanor. Not the gangsters he claimed he was going after. That's my point. He said he was going after the hardened criminals, but how rarely that's been happening, it seems they're actually avoiding them and going after innocent people who came here legally.

Edit: they're specifically avoiding the real gangs because they're cowards.

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

They are 100% avoiding the actual criminal elements; why would an ICE officer risk his life to fill a quota if a bunch of guys with guns are worth the same amount as somebody's nana who bakes food for church picnics etc?

The tariffs are also like basic income for international crime gangs; smuggling commercial goods is now a very valuable business. Why fight like the anti drug authorities when you can just buy a bunch of shit off the shelf and run it over the border posing as a spacex employee or something?

[–] AnarchistArtificer@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 days ago

If that's all you heard, you're suffering from selective hearing. Often when Trump spoke of going after "hardened criminals", it was in a manner that clearly conflated legal, documented immigrants and criminality.

Someone who has committed crimes but never been caught for them is just as much a criminal as someone who a court has found guilty, and to a significant proportion of Trump's voter base, an immigrant with a clean record is just a criminal who hasn't been caught yet.

[–] A_norny_mousse@feddit.org 38 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

How mildly they complain. Soon they will realize that it will lead exactly nowhere. I hope they do it a bit louder then.

Not that I care. As they themselves say, they did not think. Duh. And they're being very egocentric, still unable to show empathy. All par for the MAGA course and exactly what got us here in the 1st place.

Also, this being from reddit, chances are high it's fake.

[–] mondomon@lemmy.world 12 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Who fucking cares if she is Christian?

[–] khepri@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Well because we need to have one set of immigration rules for "beautiful Christian wives with fluent English" and one set for everyone else, I don't think it could be any more obvious than that.

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

If you're spanish and christian tho that is somehow bad. These maga fucks all suck shit.

[–] FatVegan@leminal.space 5 points 1 day ago

He doesn't want to say white

[–] Lasherz12@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

Or that she's "beautiful"

He's trying to appeal to the cult of sexually insecure men who need trad wives to exist because nobody except someone obsessed with being a wife and child bearer would ever lower themselves enough for them to qualify.

[–] unabart@sh.itjust.works 12 points 2 days ago

May he be alone forever. Just him and the feasting leopards.

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 25 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Tough luck being stupid. It never occurred to this idiot that for Republicans, anyone non-white is "illegal". Heck, they even consider native Americans "illegals" now...

[–] resipsaloquitur@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

New phrase I’m trying out: being stupid is expensive.

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

That is a given.

[–] 20cello@lemmy.world 14 points 2 days ago

God bless who?

Bless his heart
