LMFAO 😂
Haha, I love the shadenfreud and I refuse to feel bad about it
"refuse to feel bad"?
I'm openly laughing about this. I always feel bad when bad things happen to people, even to bad people, but this guy literally asked for it, and persuaded others to also ask for it.
sucks to suck
He probably didn’t even try not sucking
Oh je tried very hard not to suck. But he sucks at that too.
I’d like to see the information environment that made this guy a Trump supporter.
What did he see? Was he deep in Facebook? Twitter? Local stuff?
From what I understand, Republicans, especially in Florida, put out political ads targeted specifically at Cuban immigrants. They play off the inherent hatred of communism in this demographic to convince them to vote against the "radical Marxist Democrats."
environment that made this guy a Trump supporter
A LOT of Immigrants and Illegals in the US are very pro-Trump. I spoke with a few in my old neighborhood to get their take.
They said that the government didn't worry them because it wasn't that far off from where they came from. They felt elitism created niches where someone knowledgeable could profit. Party of the entrepreneurs and all.
Two said they didn't want any more immigrants here, they felt pressure from the incoming immigrants to take their places and out-compete them for work.
Because this was the last trump presidency, there was less deportation talking. I'm sure that gave some concern, but If I had to guess based on their psyche, I'd say they expected the deportation to lighten the low-hanging fruit and take the pressure off their own jobs at the same time, expecting them would just be ok because they were always ok.
OMG he must be so happy right now.
He is! He voted Trump for the free flight home! So much winning!
He really owned the libs.
“I’m on of the good ones!” They scream as they are being put into an ICE van!
“I voted for Trump!” They plead.
“I’n here legally!” They cry.
ICE cares not for their screams. For ICE only cares that they are non-white*.
*Don’t worry white immigrants. One day, you too shall be deported. Once all the non-white people are gone.
Funny fact about a cage, they’re never built for just one group, So when that cage is done with them and you still poor, it come for you
~~Killer Mike~~ El-P
I would bet money he still supports Trump, there's no limit to the doubling down.

Obviously, trump just put him there by accident, he didn't know he was one of the good immigrants, If they just had some way to signal him, he'd change his plan.
The Cubans thought they were safe because they've been staunch Republicans. One of the key demographics in keeping Florida red.
Well, now they learn. And for people thinking oh they'll release him when they find out they can't deport him because there are no flights to Cuba...
ICE asks where you're from but they don't take your word for it. They can easily decide you're from anywhere else, like Haiti or El Salvador. And with quotas they are now incentivized to do so, rather than before where the paperwork incentivized them to accept you were not deportable.
Deporting him to Haiti would be hilarious.
No it wouldn't. Nothing about this is funny.
I always thought it was funny Cubans voting Republican. I am told it's because they fear socialism because of Castro, so they vote for fascism. Even though the DNC is still far into the capitalism territory. It makes no sense to me.
They feared the tankies so much, they voted the far-right...
🤣
That’s a quality self-own, if you ask me.
Wait, hold on, this person was actually here illegally (not passing judgement) and openly campaigned for someone who was talking about deporting people?
Edit: Fix typo

He's an anti-communist who thought he was the right kind of refugee.
Keeping in mind refugees and asylum seekers are not illegal.
Unfortunately for his dumb ass, Trump didn't just not reinstate the Wet Feet, Dry Feet policy, he specifically complained about its existence (despite it ending under Obama)
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wet_feet,_dry_feet_policy
But, also, he's literally a criminal and a scammer so while this is still a Face Eating Leopard situation it's not * just* because Trump is a racist.
so this is not an issue of stupidity, just a scammer seeing the opportunity to and trying to board the mother ship by kissing ass (like many other scammers and billionaires) but failing miserably. I am sure when ICE came to get him he was shouting "BUT I SUPPORTED TRUUUUUMP"
Protip: You aren't being a "Model Minority" or "One of the good ones", you're being a useful idiot and will be left holding the bag 200 out of 100 times.
Well, that was a pretty dumb thing for him to do. It's not like Trump was unclear on his deportation policies.
