Actually, this exactly what you voted for. You were warned repeatedly that this was going to happen, and you chose to vote for him anyway.
Now the world has to suffer because of your wilful stupidity.
It's the same as Libertarian logic .... they believe in freedom for themselves and themselves only without regard for anyone else, no matter the cost.
They just can't believe that when people start losing their freedoms, that they will start losing it themselves.
Not a critical thinker amongst them. If you voted for Trump or didn’t vote (same thing) you voted for his policies that were clearly on display.
They thought if they proved their loyalty to the fuhrer, he would not hurt them because they "are one of the good ones.".
People are so fucking stupid and the good people always have to suffer because of them...

Hahaha my Latino barber voted for Trump, and then they started deporting his family members. Womp Womp.
But was he upset about it? That's the real question.
I'm not sure, I go to Great Clips now... A man has to have principles.
She's anti vaccine, anti LGBT, anti abortion even in cases of rape, thinks racism doesn't exist... She's straight off the assembly line. Just a number. It's going to generate sentences that sound good because that's how it clings to money, power, and attention.
Oh yes it is you dumb bitch. You voted for this so FAFO while the rest of us watch with popcorn in hand.
I'm watching in fear
Should have thought of that when it was a major part of his campaign?? Like what the fuck did these people just have their fingers in their ears for the last decade? Republican's whole platform is deportation lol
It’s so wild, they combine, ‘ah he doesn’t really mean that’ and ‘I like him because he tells it like it is, no lies’ into the most grotesque and ineffable support for stupidity.
It was a major part of his first term in office!
The Cuban-American state lawmaker said she is “heartbroken” about the “uncertainty” gripping her district.
Oh, honey. There's no uncertainty. He's going to deport you all if we don't all get together and stop him.

Narrator: It was exactly what she voted for.
It is exactly what you voted for, Honey. Enjoy your new life abroad, wth none of the things you accumulated in the states. And thank Jesus for Dear Leader.
This has made me wonder if other states do what happens in California where they send out a fake ballot prior to the actual vote to show you how it works and explain all the stuff on it briefly so you can make a somewhat informed decision (though in reality a lot of shit is worded in legalese that was meant to be confusing which sucks). Because how the hell do you not know what it is you're voting for when it says so on the fucking ballot and the person you're voting for is blasted everywhere 24/7 telling you exactly what they plan to do? Literally sticking your head in the sand?
I have lived in many states, including California. California has by far the best information pre-election to make informed decisions. Booklet with bios on every candidate, every issue, statements for and against, detailed descriptions about what a yes vote means and what a no vote means, sample ballot to make your decisions ahead of time - and this is just the info from the state/county/local municipality. All of this right to every voters' mailbox. Then there's the guides from the Union of Concerned Scientists, League of Women Voters, and a few others that might be more niche. In California at least, there's no excuse not to be an informed voter. After I moved away from California and only received my voting location in the mail, I called the election office to check to see if my sample ballot or booklet of bios or any other information was on the way or if it had gotten lost in the mail or something. They had no idea what I was talking about and were so confused. So I asked if I could get information about the candidates or the issues from the election website or something to inform myself about them. Nope! I had to find out who each candidate was and then look up if they had their own website to find out more about them and what they stood for - if they didn't have a website, that was it. For the issues, all I had to go on was the wording itself and what people were shouting about it in local media.
I wish all states would do what California does. But, I'm pretty sure that's partly by design - make it confusing and you can get people to vote for things they probably wouldn't want if they truly understood it.
Please don't use the phrase "fake ballots" though, especially in the current climate of people still thinking 2020 utilized fake ballots. The term you are looking for is "sample ballots".

I was reaching for it I just didn't quite grab it. 😅
In this case it's a state senator, whose full time job is to know about this shit, so... I don't think extra leaflets in the mail would have helped.
Pennsylvania does not do this. Sounds like a handy tool, though.
Is this a good definition of irony?
Stupid or so blinded by hatred they couldn’t see the truth?
Yes. Yes it is. Trump fucking told you this is what he was going to do, you imbecile.
