Got exactly what y'all voted for. Enjoy the consequences.

Oh, and y'all are to blame. Not Democrats, not even the orange himself. He told you what he was and what he was going to do, and you created this kindly old man who was not going to depart the "good" illegals. There are no "good illegals" in his worldview. There is no kindness. That's reality.

It's not even that they deluded themselves about Trump really being kind, they deluded themselves about being spared by the monster they voted for to harm other people. They're victims of their own self-centered malevolence.

There are a good deal of them that assumed he was just blustering for political points and wouldn't actually deport anyone at all.

Though I don't know why you would make that gamble. I don't believe a word that comes out of Trump's mouth either, but if the choice was between a person who advocates putting my family members in camps and kicking them out of the country, and one who isn't doing that... Well it makes sense to vote for the one who doesn't want to do that, rather than vote for the one who does and just hope he doesn't mean it.
