So, what they are actually saying is that the government is "hurting the wrong people".
They wanted people hurt, just not not themselves.

I was told by my grade 8 history teacher that, "The Government is not your friend, the Government is not your enemy, the Government is there to make sure there is a tomorrow." I don't know what it means, but it sure sounds good, eh?
republicans ALWAYS ASSUME the opposite of what they are told. they assume hes kidding when hes is not.
Fucking idiots. Learn a goddamned thing.
Nice, not just Trump voters, but full blown chuds. I hope the husband gets sent to el Salvador with no due process
I want to know what his shirt says. I can read down to the word "probably"
Looks like it’s this one.
A real ‘fuck your feelings’ kinda guy
*chef’s kiss*
"Then you probably have looked at the facts of the situation and came to a logical conclusion while also having empathy towards people who don't look like you."
Nah, it probably says something offensive.
They'll vote Republican every time regardless.
“You said you were going after the worst of the worst, but-"
"No but. You people are the worst."
Leopard obesity epidemic
Lots of faces to eat lately.
they need to call the lions, and hyenas to join in.
Trump voters are criminals at heart. ICE did their job.
It was never about "illegals".
those dastardly brown people should think twice before they go out brown again
If only there was some way for us to have told them prior to all this happening.
Alas...

Worst of the worst? Most US immigrants targeted for deportation in 2025 had no criminal charges, documents reveal
Which was a surprise to not many people on either side. The left saw it coming and the right pretended they didn't.
That's a lie. People like you don't actually think, only react.
They assumed that MAGA would be going after the people they hate, because they spend so much of their time wallowing in that hate, that it's all they think about.
But hate is dangerous, it spreads, and gets out of control, and it doesn't care who it's victims are. Now its claiming those who supported it because the indiscriminate hate has reached them.
They unleashed it, now they have to deal with it.
Racist finds out that the racists she voted for are also fascists.
"ruined our lives."
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD.
oh no! anyway…
You supported Trump, IMO that IS criminal.
Sorry hon. He is a criminal in ICE's eyes.
Awww...FAFO. We tried to warn y'all about Stephen Miller and the MAGA mindset on immigrants: everyone's a criminal. It's not like they weren't openly saying this since day freaking one.
I'd say she would have learned her lesson but clearly she hasn't.
I thought they would hurt other people! But then they hurt us. US! Not them. US! I mean I want people to suffer, sure. But not me. ME!!!!
And they announced plans to adopt a pet leopard.
Yeah I'm sure they needed enough funds to double the size of the US prison system in order to deal with just the worst of the worst of the worst? "Mass Deportation" meant only the 3% of immigrants that were violent criminals?
It must be a truly blissful life to be so unaware... "How dare the boot I was licking step on me!"
I guess she figured all 15M of them were going to be criminals. LOL.
