Arthur Sahakyan has declared he will continue to support Donald Trump and display signs supporting the president despite his wife being taken away from their home and children by ICE

A staunch MAGA supporter has defended Donald Trump's immigration crackdown, despite his own wife being torn away from their home and children by ICE agents.

The dad of four said his wife was born in Iran and came to the US as a refugee when she was just three years old. However, her green card was revoked around 15 years ago due to a theft conviction.

Arthur said it was for "misdemeanor stuff," but they've been going through the legal process to attempt to regain her citizenship ever since. "She just went in [for an immigration check-in] in April," Arthur recalled. "They said you're fine. Have a good day. See you back in September or October."

There are cults out there with such a strong grip on the minds of their followers that people will let their children die because of it. As bad as this is, it shouldn't be too shocking that cult members would go along with this.
