    a lot of hispanic voters thought he was only talking about deporting criminals and gangsters… and the spanish language news coverage was entirely different….

    i see it as: victim of conman realizes it in the hardest way possible.

    you know who’s really welcoming to converts? the right.
    leftists seem to tend towards, “you fucked up once, so fuck you forever”… we need to invite growth.
    but the “looks like an illegal” race is getting fucked over hard… they just effectively killed her father… it’s not that funny.
    i like seeing hardcore magas who lost their farm when their workforce was deported….

        I want to feel this way.

        But after so many years of this shit, one has no excuses to be this goddamned stupid at this point.

        We need to keep smashing their noses into the shit-pile they just made; ruthlessly and relentlessly. Mock them and ostracize them.

        I say this as someone who’s extremely conflict-avoidant: fuck coming together with these dipshits. If you drop a giant turd on my bed, we are going to have a problem, and I will not be nice to you about it.

        We won’t have real change in this country until people feel real deep, visceral, heartbreaking shame for what they have done to all of us - not just “oops, it affected me now, I change my mind” fauxpology. That’s not how it works, buttercup, fuck you.

      Every vote who vocalizes their regret is another nut for me. Every tear these morons spill, and every shudder of breath they experience as they sob is the same. If their media spun trump’s message in a certain direction, then it is ABSOLUTELY their fault for not inquiring more. The man ran on a fucking border wall to keep out immigrants last election. Why on earth would they not expect to be included in these violations of human rights? This will sound excessively harsh, but I hope she gets notice of her father’s passing on some sort of live stream, because viewing those tears live would be pure bliss on my end. Have the day you voted for has acquired a whole new meaning in her world.
