"He's hurting the wrong people."

He was only supposed to hurt the poors.

The best part is that Trump's wife was here illegally, she overstayed a work visa and now she's a full citizen.

FenrirIII@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 12d

She came on a "genius" visa tpo. Must have been a genius at gargling balls

Trump FUCKS businessman by DETAINING his foreign born WIFE.

"This is the worst thing that's ever happened to me," says old white rich guy from the VIP lounge of the club. "You have no idea how much I am personally suffering. Every day, I have to deal with all of the shit she used to handle. Ordering around the house staff. Handling the bills. Why do you think I married my secretary in the first place?! Nevermind how embarrassing it will be next time I'm out golfing with my MAGA friends."

she will receive full due process. This Administration is not going to ignore the rule of law.

Damn it, warn people before someone says this. I almost choked on my coffee.

He said he would not vote for Trump again, adding: “This is like the Gestapo.”

He couldn’t vote for trump again anyway (yet)! Why not ask him if he’d vote for republicans again? Come on.

Conservatives/regressives love tossing their reps in the trash heap of history once they legally can't vote for them anymore.

"I never knew the guy."

Rest assured. He'll vote for the next one.

idiomaddict@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 12d

They like hierarchies and suck up to power. Once someone’s either a lame duck or out of office, there’s nothing to be gained from fawning over them anymore, so they drop the act.

Please consider retiring the "r" word. It's hurtful to the folks that term is used for, and there are so many other alternatives that don't cause harm. <3

If they can vote, they can handle being called as they are in their way of thinking or not thinking.

I'm referring to those with cognitive and developmental disabilities, many of whom still have a medical diagnosis of "mental retardation". "Retard" is an epithet that comes directly from hate speech against those folks.

And it's unfair. My wife and I both have worked with that population. She taught her students Shakespeare. And lest you think they didn't learn - they clearly understood the material and discussed it intelligently.

They might learn many things more slowly than the rest of us humans, but the absolutely learn.

And they absolutely know the "R" word, and know it means them.

So when you use it, you are causing harm to innocents who do not deserve the hatred.

That's why I humbly request you consider different word choice.

Please don't play coy and pretend to misunderstand.

You didn't get the "r" thing, no?

It's sort of amazing how many people literally voted against their own interests, and got what they voted for, and now they're upset. WTF did you actually want?

skisnow@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 12d

Just to bring everyone back down, I suspect "how many" isn't actually that high a number, it's just that these stories get disproportionate attention on sites like this.

pentastarm@piefed.ca · 2 pts · 12d

Honestly it's sad. It also sad to see Canadians that are wearing MAGA crap. It's few and far between, especially now, but in the run up to the US election we saw it a lot more. :/

PedroMaldonado@lemmy.world · 16 pts · 13d

You vote for a fucker and then act surprised when he fucks you. Thanks for nothing, jerks.

inclementimmigrant@lemmy.world · 15 pts · 12d

Awww... Racist, Incel, human trafficker got his latest victim taken away.

Playing the world tiniest violin. Maybe he should traffic a rural white chick next time and keep his job in America l.

DarkFuture@lemmy.world · 15 pts · 12d

Hope it hurts.

But who are we kidding? This guy is a MAGAt and MAGAts only care about themselves. He'll forget she ever existed and find some other victim whose life he can destroy.

A lifelong Republican is deeply regretting his decision to vote for Donald Trump after his immigrant fiancée was arrested and detained by ICE agents last month.

Those pieces of shit would vote for Hitler, if it meant more money for them, and then cry that their own voting records hurts them.

Texas businessman John Gannon has revealed how his plans to marry his beloved 45-year-old Yasmin Suarez Reyes...

That guy doesn't look anywhere near 45. Got himself a trophy wife.

I know! That dude is not a day under 48! Maybe pushing 50!

Good. Fuck these Republicans shippingt their side pieces into the country just so they can abuse birthright citizenship with green card marriages.

How can you be betrayed by someone with no loyalty?

Gammelfisch@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 12d

Zero sympathy, the racist sack of neo-Nazi supporting shit voted for it.

I’m sure he can afford another wife, is he upset she has to be white or..?

Serbian is okay.

She was probably “too old” and he called ICE himself. Really avoids any messy confrontation.

What bullshit. If you're a Texan, owns businesses in Mexico, how the fuck are you unaware at your age of the fact that there isn't a safe path to citizenship in America?

Tollana1234567@lemmy.today · 1 pts · 12d

they think marriage foreign wife= permanent citizenship/residents, an untouched by GOP anti-immigration measures.

"Not like this!"

BillCheddar@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 12d

"wife" uhh no she is not his wife.

They aren't yet married. That's like the whole point of the story is that this guy wants to marry her and the dumbfucks are making her sit in jail instead.

is gannon short for gannondorf, because that is a villian in zelda.

Supporter becomes another casualty their leaders don't care about. If you elect cruel, vicious, uncaring people, they aren't just that way with the enemies they convinced you exist. That's who they are to everyone, including you.
