I'm a Trump supporter," Robertson told Reuters. "But I just don't think the raids are the answer."

translation: I was fine with all of his horrible policies until it affected ME!

Fuck this dude and everyone like him. I hope he loses thousands

"The contractor world is full of Republicans," explained Harrison in an interview with Reuters. "I'm not anti-ICE. We're supportive of what the president is trying to do. But the reality of it is our industry has to have the Hispanic immigrant-based workers in it."

So why is it again that these people that are hiring all the illegal immigrants aren't also going to jail when illegal immigrants are being arrested at their jobs?

That's the real question.

I wonder if they'll still be Trumpers after rotting in a cell.

Robertson added that the raids aren't just intimidating undocumented immigrant workers but also Latino workers who are in the country legally but who don't want to get swept up in raids "because of their skin color. They are scared they look the part," Robertson explained.

Same thing happened to a construction company in my area. During the interview he was asked why he doesn't just hire americans, and his response was that americans want to be paid too much and aren't willing to put in 10-12 hour days 6 days a week...

Yes, we get it, you won the election and now you're getting the exact consequences you asked for. You can stop rubbing everyone else's faces in it.

What the Trump admin is doing isn't about getting dangerous people out of the country. It's about white people being afraid of a future where the American population is no longer majority white. When you realize that their actions make a lot more sense. That's also why they're trying to encourage white women to have more babies.

Not justifying it by any stretch, but it's worth suggesting that not all of these leopards-ate-my-face fools feel compelled to preface their stories with "I still support Trump but" because they're genuinely that stupid. I'm sure many of them have extreme buyer's remorse at this point and want nothing more than to shout "fuck Trump" from the rafters as loud as they can, but they also know the exact number of friends, family, and business associates they'll lose forever by showing disloyalty to Dear Leader. Cults are a frightfully powerful force.

That's some disturbing shit. If you're scared to say that you *don't* support a particular political candidate, that is some scary stuff.

I had some friends living down south who started wearing masks to church once the worst of the pandemic had passed. The way fellow church members reacted (it's exactly what you think, but worse)...yeah, the Trump cult is a problem.

its like the shunning you see in many of the cult religions, where friends and family refuse to talk to you and the community around you refuses to do business with you.

I am completely apathetic to their bullshit at this point. The only way there will be any redemption is a crushing democratic victory in 2026 and then in 2028. Otherwise they are just pissing in the wind with their faux "THIS isn't what I voted for the proudly open racist and incompetent wanna be Hitler for who told me he would do exactly all the things he is doing!"

These are the same people that are grifted for thousands of dollars worth of unneeded Trump merch only to cry egg prices are too high.

When minority groups end up being the majority, I worry about it considering how many people support trumps hate and fear mongering. I dont want to be grouped with those bigoted ****faces

I have told this story here before, but my extended family has a Georgia branch. In MTGs district actually. I love Georgia, and spent most of every summer there from the time I was born until 18.

My immediate family is strong Democrat, but that branch of the family is almost all deeply brainwashed Trumpers. I have a liberal cousin who lived a few doors down from my very MAGA Aunt in Georgia. My cousin and her husband moved to another state, mainly because she could not stand my Aunt talking about Trump day after day anymore. The way she tells it, her Mom would come over every day for years, plop down in the kitchen, and talk about Trump for hours no matter how hard anyone tried to change the subject.

Can you imagine that? Driving your family away because you cannot stop bellowing about an openly corrupt politician who doesnt know you or will ever care about you? Exchanging a loving daughter living down the street for Fox and Donald Trump of all things?

It is sick. MAGA is sick. My cousin used to call me and my Dad constantly in tears over her Mom and Dad behavior, and she finally gave up and left in disgust.

It is incredibly similar to the stories of people leaving Scientology, and frankly speaking, not all that different from what happens to people who speak up against abuses of power or wrongdoing in *conventional* religious organizations. They provide a sense of belonging and community, but it's a fake one since it's not like Trump is literally going to join you for a meal (he actually remarked on January 6 that he was disappointed that his terrorist supporters looked so poor and disheveled), but some individuals really thrive on it.

It's become their whole identity, and that's fucking terrifying.

he spent a lot of time talking about the immigrant convoys that fox news made up a few years back, apparently all a liberal plot to discredit trumps wall or something? there was the whole email thing that got dragged on for years, how russia;s involvement with the 2016 election was a hoax, how covid was a liberal conspiracy. there's been a lot, though not much recently since i asked him if he supported pedophilia by electing the admitted rapist back into office...

Just wish the media or even Democrats would start highlighting this as companies get off scott free even though they are knowingly "employing" the same people that Repugs think are criminals.

How can it be anything but oppressing brown people when only they are receiving punishment. It's totally fucked.
