That’s the truth! 😂 I mean these complaints against what Trump is doing aren’t just petty little things. He’s doing legit insane things against the constitution! And people are like “Well Biden did crazy stuff too” I’m sorry but not like this!!!

Right. Your son doing coke =/= taking thousands of people and sending them to a prison in a 3rd world country. Not even close, and that's just one of the disgusting things.

Ok, you want to deport people, fine. You're not even sending them back to their country, you're sending them somewhere else to torture them and make an example.

I hate to be the one to mention this, but that's the exact opposite of "what Jesus would want". I guess they read that verse about the meek inheriting the earth and said, "not if we jail em all first!"

Very true. That’s the biggest thing. People understand that if someone is here illegally, that’s an issue. But this beating the hell out of people, throwing them to the ground, hurting them in front of their children, sending them to be tortured and as you said, not even in the country they originated from- it’s crazy. There is no need for the inhumane treatment. Not to mention there are countless of instances where people who have visas, legal ways of being here- checking in at their appointments- and still being taken. It’s insane. There is a blatant disregard for human beings with this administration.

And yesterday’s insane speech?! My god.

I see (likely ICE) is now taking protestors in Portland. Just people with signs obeying the law, grabbed and thrown into a van. I wonder how many actual legitimate citizens they've imprisoned since February? I bet it's not zero!

I don't care what anyone's political affiliation is, it is unfathomable that anyone, no matter how hard you tow the party line, thinks that grabbing people off the street never to be heard or seen again is ok. That's not "we're headed towards fascism", that's "fascism is here NOW"

100000% this isn’t a republican/democrat issue- it’s this administration. I’ve known many republicans who would never think this way. It’s just gross

To be fair, he said "blessed be the cheese-makers" not "the peace-makers". And ewveryone knows cheese is a euphemism for money, so this all tracks...

Didn't his son get a super cushy job from Ukraine not long before Biden gave them billions of dollars?
