Citizens are getting harassed and brutalized by ICE. Prices are skyrocketing and unemployment is surging. The approval rating should be much lower.

Trump is doing what was promised. A lot of scumbags are very happy.
Right? Like it's weird so many people are saying "This isn't what I voted for." Yes, it is exactly what you voted for.
That's a lot of scumbags.
About 25%.
342 million x 0.25 = 85.5 million
Don't get it twisted, white Latinos voted for exactly that, delusionally thinking that the only ones who would be harassed and deported were Latinos less white than them. They're only opposed more because they found out that the WASPs didn't consider them white the hard way.
asians: vietnamese, and some chinese in florida too. asian people are next after hispanics.
Which I really don't get. We're called WASP for a reason. It's not just because it's "white Anglo Saxon protestant" it's because we're scary in any amount.
Like shit, I'm far more terrified of other WASPs than any other categories of people.
(Well, ok I guess technically I'm not protestant anymore, but I consider being raised that way enough.)
25% is on the low end of the Hopeless Dipshit Constant(TM), i.e. 25 to 33%.
Ugh, this is like the whole tipping thing. Used to be that it was 10%, now it’s 25-33%?
It never should have gotten here... I'm incredibly disappointed in Hispanic voters, especially males, SMH.
Many were folks who came here via some "legal" means who looked at those crossing during Biden and resented them. That hatred of folks just trying to find a better life now has an entire gestapo ready to arrest and deport anyone who looks too brown to be in American.
They thought that all that paperwork made them whole in the Republican eyes. They thought those words saying they were a citizen was enough to made confessed racist look the other way. But an administration that doesn't care about the law, doesn't care about what status a sheet of paper says.
That's what's so crazy about letting your hate get to you. That hate comes back to bite you.
Yes, they let themselves get deluded by a strong man with an ego the size of Jupiter. All of this was painfully obvious to those that barely paid attention. This is what hate gets you, only more hate.
Sadly this is the same the world over.
In the lead up to Brexit, UKIP had a startling number of foreign names on its roster of candidates. Immigrants and children of immigrants, who were so keen to pull the ladder up behind them and be treated by others as a “true” native, that they devoted serious time and energy to making it happen. They don’t like seeing other immigrants because they involuntarily project their own feelings about those immigrants as outsiders, back onto themselves.
I remember back when Priti Patel was Foreign Secretary she was interviewed about her proposed new immigration policy and had to admit that under her rules her own parents wouldn’t have been allowed in the country.
25% of Hispanics still approve of Trump? Holy hell, I thought 2020 showed us how stupid humans can be, but this is on a whole other level!
They're the "fuck you, I got mine" people that will be shocked when they ultimately turn on them.
Anyone who votes for Trump who is not a millionaire is an idiot, but anyone who is not a white male really is fucking stupid.
Millionaire isn't even enough to benefit from the grift! Basically middle class.
You have to have tens of millions to have come out on top here...
So many dumb people.
Americans are on a whole new level
Some of my cousins are incredibly stupid people who watch Fox News all day.
I tried so hard to convince some of my fellow Mexicans the repercussions of voting for Trump, I even passed them a copy of the Project 2025 playbook. They still voted for him and are dumbfounded that ICE is dragging them away. Fuck 'em is all I can say.
I mean, in 2016 he literally campaigned on a platform of keeping Mexicans out of the US. It’s wild that any Mexicans in the US can see that and go “he’ll be the person to do what’s best for me!”
In the first term he just was terrible to those trying to cross the border. If you were already in, his first term was largely nothing if you don't care about others.
This term has been going after people already here, and rounding up and us citizens and looking to remove legal status for those that have it.
Leading up to the election:
Frantically trying to explain that if you put your hand in the fire, you're going to get burnt.
The election:
"Stupid snowflake librul cuk! Would it trigger you if I do... this!?" puts hand in fire
Since election:
"Ow! My hand!!" 😢
No shit Sherlock. The death camps tend to upset people who get targeted by the secret police.
The question is why the broad community didn't see this coming, to such a large degree.
Anecdotal from the Mexicans I know that voted for him, I think a lot of people convinced themselves that he was only going to go after the “illegal” by THEIR definition Hispanics; Guatemalans and Venezuelans that are bad at “working hard” and it was going to free up resources for their hard working, attempting access via legal means, family members to enter. I tried to explain why this wouldn’t be the case but it fell upon too many deaf ears. Your anecdotal evidence might vary from mine though!
Especially when he openly said it was coming, over and over again.
I know Trump lies a lot, but when he says he's going to do something that causes pain to everyone but himself, he's generally telling the truth about that.
I mean. I have no idea why the fuck any of them, no matter how "conservatives values" they might have been, would have supported this dumbass. Did they not even see Stephen Miller in his first term?
It's still 25%? What. The. Fuck.
Bro Spanish language radio in South Florida is absolutely wild with the propaganda. I wasn't in the least bit surprised when I saw the polling numbers.
Man ... what could have happened? Certainly not the exact thing that he said he would do. No, can't be that.
I hate to say "I told you so".
No, really. I would've much preferred to be wrong about what I thought a second Trump term would look like
if they voted him 3 times, theres no saving them, especially the first time he did some of what he campaigned on.
Nope. Don't care. Don't give chicken fried fuck. They were warned but still voted to condemn everyone else because thought they were the "good ones."
Have the life you fucking voted for
27% of people still haven't realised they're next.
It’s F’d up propaganda, and some cultural differences, that led these communities to vote the way they did.
- Some Latin cultures want leaders that talk tough, the “machismo” to crack skulls and “get things done.”
- Some are very religious, and were taken in by the Right’s monopoly on religious propaganda and “morality.”
- Many fled countries and leaders that claimed to be socialist, but were just awful authoritarian kleptocracies with a shitty veneer of socialism for the people. A country with few resources or those resources are financially captured by major western industry (like oil) and most of the profits go to the leaders. Thanks again to Right Wing propaganda associating any Democrat or social policy with socialism, the minorities FUD voted for the Right because “liberal socialists are evil”.
- Sometimes they’re just uneducated assholes that can’t look past #1, just like our reich wing, and choose the least effort, lowest thought, solution to a problem…violence, strong-arm tactics, “simple” solutions.
It was an open book test here. At least people breaking off with him. I guess lol.
Churches be pushing their political views on these believers. I spoke to one of them when the ice shit started and he was defending Trump under the guise of a libertarian. So after a while of arguing and pointing out his don't thread on me argument and knowing hes a church person, I said is this what Jesus would do? He just said oh my gooood trying to make it look like he wasn't getting through to me and was stuck without a comeback.
Every single racial minority that supported Trump should be forced to donate their bodies to science whenever they die.
That way we can find out what type of brain tumor causes someone to become the ultimate, unceasingly submissive bitch/cuck.
Huh... Would you look at that
That headline implies they supported him before. So... Meh. Have the day you losers voted for.
25% WTF!
Do they not realize that Taco's little sidekick wants ALL of them out? Not just the criminals, not the undocumented, not those in gangs....
ALL. There are no "good ones" here. The weird little Stephen wants them all out of here.
you mean they spun down the bot farms?
