My In-laws are Hispanic first Gen illegal border crossers who voted Trump twice. They are all citizens now, but one family member is not a full citizen yet. To this day, they say....

  • He's anti-abortion
  • We are getting stimulus checks
  • He's a good business man
  • He's getting rid of just the bad ones

That's it. That's the only points they talk about. They ignore any evidence to the contrary. Also ignoring the fact that a member of their own family will at some point be a target for deportation.

The "good businessman" part is especially baffling.

[–] hopesdead@startrek.website 7 points 1 month ago

I dare anyone to list one thing he did as a businessman that was “good”. I doubt they could do it.

That’s a really common trump supporter position.

They seriously Do Not Want To Know.

Your in-laws crossed the border illegally, you say?

I'm from Miami, the local Español radio was wild with the dick sucking leading up to the election.

If you ever needed proof that you married into the wrong family...

My wife is an amazing person. The sisters are great people too. They are very progressive and don't believe the same at all. It's the parents that for whatever reason believe the poison of Trump. The ones of the family who are super religious are the ones who align with Trump. Go figure.

Religion is a poison. It teaches to believe the words of the group leader overs critical thought and reality.
