    “He’s doing the right thing because lots of these people don’t deserve to be here,” Arpineh told the BBC over the phone from the Adelanto immigrant detention centre in California’s Mojave Desert.

    “I will support him until the day I die. He’s making America great again.”

    Okay, bye!

    “I don’t blame Trump, I blame Biden,” Arthur says. “It’s his doing for open borders, but I believe in the system and all the good people will be released and the ones that are bad will be sent back.”

    While many of those detained do not have criminal records, Aprineh is a convicted felon, which makes her a prime target for removal.

    Yep, bye! I mean, that’s terrible, I’m sorry you’re going through that but then that’s what you wanted. So. Okay?

      Convicted felon and somehow she doesn’t count herself in the group of criminal immigrants that will be deported. Major face-palm? She most definitely will be deported though. I wonder what she will say then.

      They are a cult. If Taco tells these people to cut their own nuts off, many of them will. As long as Taco tells them it is to “own the libs” or “fight the deep state” or something.

      All this group needs is an identifying bit of gear, like black Nikes. Oh wait, they have fucking stupid red hats many of them wear (and they effectively ruined that color for a baseball hat, by the way). Never mind.

        Someday he’s gonna publicly burn the constitution and these people will think it’s a perfectly logical way to protect what America stands for

      It’s close, but it’s still not as good as Trump supporters praising MAGA and denying COVID exists as they are literally taking their dying breaths.

      Iranian. And xtian. I bet she thinks she is considered an honorary white person, and because she’s xtian, she’s one of the “good ones”.

      Stephen Miller enters the chat…even though that guy is Jewish, he seems to have an Aryan’s view of things…

    “It’s not the leopard fault they are hungry, and my face tastes so good. They’re still my favorite animal.”

    Honestly, how can she call herself a Christian and be in the MAGA cult?

    “The stranger who resides with you shall be to you as the native among you, and you shall love him as yourself, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt.”

    Leviticus 19:34

    “I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naive.”

    2 Timothy 4:3-4

      If she’s a MAGA christian, she’s in two cults.

      The obvious answer to your question is that she’s prone to falling prey to cults.

    Hopefully she gets exactly what she voted for. I wish her and her family nothing but the worst of her own intentions.

    Face palm.

    I just keep thinking of that “here’s your sign” guy, although, ironically, Bill Engvall is probably a teabagging qon.
