Trump supporter wrongly detained by Ice questions his support for president
Jensy Machado, a naturalized US citizen from Virginia, believes US immigration agency profiles Hispanic people
According to Machado, the agents told him the name of a man who had a deportation order and had given Machado’s home address. He responded by telling the agents that man’s name wasn’t his – and offered to show them his Virginia driver’s license.
But he says that the agents did not ask to see his ID. Instead, they ordered him to leave his car, and they placed handcuffs on him. An agent then asked Machado how he got into the country.
“And I told him I was an American citizen,” Machado said. “He looked at his other partner like, you know, smiling, like saying, ‘Can you believe this guy?’”
US immigration profiles Hispanic people
Yes, dipshit, there's been two whole presidential campaigns running on "securing" the southern border. Most illegal immigrants don't cross that border, they come legally on tourist visas then stay after it expires. This guy had absolutely no critical thinking about what it actually meant for politicians to focus on the border with Mexico
Just to be clear, that was literally both campaigns.
Like, the two campaigns were obviously very different. You just picked one of the areas where the DNC decided to try to out Republican the Republicans.
"Hispanic man questions supporting an administration that doesnt support hispanics"
"Hispanic man questions supporting an administration that doesnt support hispanics explicitly targets hispanics."
Ftfy.
Minorities of any kind
“I was a Trump supporter,” he said on Wednesday. “I voted for Trump last election, but, because I thought it was going to be like ... against criminals, not every Hispanic, Spanish-lookalike.”
Gee wiz, if only someone warned people that trump would act like a total racist and xenophobe when it came to anti-immigration...
The two men with Machado were taken into custody, but he doesn’t know why.
Because they were accomplices to a dirty illegal mexican, duh
Lucky him, I never really get anything out of my vote :(
I’m curious if he would have felt the same way had he become aware of any Hispanic US citizen being detained by ICE, or if he only feels this way because it happened to him, specifically.
Sure, otherwise he wouldn't have supported Trump in the first place.
You won, get over it
You didn't figure that out when "Haitians are eating pets" was a major campaign point even though everyone near the applicable town emphatically called bullshit? Or when Trump promised to deport between 11 and 21 million illegal immigrants streaming in from Latin America?
What a bad hombre
R-- Really?! They found a sentient one?!
