Isn't undocumented another word for illegal immigrant? (It's not really a term we have over here so apologies if I got that wrong)
I have nothing whatsoever against people based on their country of origin or skin colour etc, but if you're (or a close loved one is) flagrantly breaking the law and hiding from the authorities by illegally residing in a country, surely you shouldn't be surprised when you vote for the guy that promised to root these criminals out and deport them?
To me, the big news is people who are legally residing in the USA are being gulag'd, not that they're catching illegal immigrants. But yes, this woman was a fool, sadly.
She may be intelligent and capable of learning better, but such is the power of propaganda and brainwashing that it can get us all. None of us are immune.
It's a strong reminder that people can be tricked into working against their own interests, no matter how smart we are. The only thing that will give us a fighting chance are strong Critical Thinking skills. Even then, it's so easy to be fooled and not realise it.
Selfish people. Its still a me me me attitude, but now she wants everyone else to come and do what she wants to get what she wants.
I'd put money on the fact that if put in a situation where she was asked to help someone else's family first she would say "But what about MY father!?"
Its still a me me me attitude
I don't know why I read that in Italian accent.
At least for once one of them actually seems to regret their vote. Fuck her anyway though, they only care when it personally affects them directly. You voted for this to happen to everyone else, turns out that includes you and your family too, so:
We needed that 8 months ago when you knowingly voted against it.
Now YOU want it.
Enjoy those tears, you earned them.
"All his plans were public but I refused to review them. I thought Project 2025 was a joke because I only subscribe to rightwing media."
I'm upset that people are being harmed. I'm not upset that you feel betrayed.
No. We said the same thing for the last 8 years, and people like you thumbed your nose at us like little children. Consequences of your actions.
She's right about the unity. I know there is some schadenfreud here, but at the end of the day if Trump voyers want to change their minds it's a good thing.
Do they want to change their mind, or are they upset it affected them?
Don’t mistake short term anger for long term change. These people aren’t going to reevaluate their positions in life.
Finally, one that says they wish they made a different choice. Unfortunately, if this didn't happen to someone close to her, she would probably still be for this.
You got exactly what you wanted, Honey. Enjoy your MAGA world.
Can anyone explain how people with undocumented immigrants in their family were tricked into voting for trump? Makes zero sense to me.
This is so unnecessary. All she has to do is quit being such a cheapskate, and buy a pardon for a few million bucks. It's really as simple as that. For $5 million he can even have a special gold HitlerPig citizenship card.
Her vote says she didn't give a fuck about anybody else's father, so why should anybody else give a fuck about hers?
"I regret something that I did but only now it's personally affecting me and my family."
I would like to know how she felt when everyone else was getting kidnapped and deported?
I fucking despise people like this
They're fine with hurting people, so long as they're not hurt themselves
"don't shoot yourself in the foot"
"Shoot yourself in the foot to Make America Great Again!"
"I'm telling you man, you shouldn't shoot yourself in the foot"
Shoots themself in the foot
"WAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH"
"Told you so"
So now that she’s personally affected by it she wants change lol. But trans people are illegal now so deep down it was still worth it to her.
Immigration is the one issue where he 100% did not lie about what he intended, and therefore, the one issue where I don't feel much sympathy for impacted MAGA voters. You literally did vote for this.
I can't help but feel bad for her and her family.
And as much as we want to laugh at her, that doesn't help. A lot of people need to see how their mistakes affect them before they get it.
This country needs to be united, and anyone that wants to defect left should be welcomed. Show them the light and how they were lied to and manipulated. Grow our numbers. Teach people compassion.
But if we ostracize her, she'll just end up back into her media sphere and voting against the betterment of this country again.
If she was right in front of me I’d be gentle, say I’m proud of her for realizing the truth even if it was a little late, and try to help at least by making her some tea or something.
But from over here? Bruh I still hope she gets her dad back and shit, and I do feel bad because she’s clearly stupid as all hell so from her perspective this was a sudden and unexpected betrayal, but holy shit I do love these posts. Trump was beyond obviously evil and maintained that very public energy for a decade yet people still gave him the popular vote in 2024. Harris should have been the right-wing candidate but instead the US made her the only option against the super far right.
She deserved this, she helped make this happen. There are only so many times you can beg someone not to drink bleach before you just don’t have the empathy to do anything about it. And I still do, I’ll never let it go completely, but I’m not going to pander to these idiots and make their horrible opinions feel valid.
