"I don't regret the vote," Bradley Bartell said after his wife was detained by ICE as they returned home from their honeymoon.

Summary

Bradley Bartell, a Trump voter, says he does not regret his choice despite his wife, Camila Muñoz, being detained by ICE after their honeymoon.

Muñoz, a Peruvian citizen seeking a green card, overstayed her visa due to the pandemic. Bartell criticized ICE’s inefficiency but still supports Trump, hoping he improves the system.

His story highlights Trump’s mass deportation policies, which have led to arrests of nonviolent migrants and even legal residents.

Muñoz remains in ICE custody as her case proceeds.

    This is how all of these creatures are… They will never admit they were or are wrong. Trump is a disease that rots their brains.

    I say this as someone with family that voted for him. There’s nothing left of who they are. Many were extremely religious Christians… I say were because worshipping Trump like they do is 100% against the teachings of Christ.

    This whole movement is taking over people’s entire identity. It’s sad, and frustrating, and fucking disguising.

    this is the thing with fascists. their spite driven voting will not stop just because they’re suffering, just so long as people they hate are also suffering. telling fascists their actions will have consequences will not dissuade them from taking those actions. it’s more valuable to explain how systems that stand against fascism will benefit them. tell them the left wants to pay them money to buy groceries, tell them the left wants to increase their take home pay, tell them the left wants to give them freedoms and power against their bosses they don’t have.

    fascists understand the system to be a zero sum game. they think the left wants to take from them and give it to others. they don’t understand the left wants wipe the slate clean and remove the game from the table, replacing the game with food and drink.

    you can’t move them off their spot by telling them fascism is a scam. they know it’s a scam. but it’s the scam they know and their propaganda streams are telling them the left has an even worse scam. i know it’s scary, and we’ll never move everyone off their spot, but we have to wake people up. as someone who was woken up, these were the strategies that worked for me

    I don’t CARE if Trump Jails my Wife or Kills my Parents! I LIKE his Family Values! And by Family Values I mean Raping Women and Children and KILLING Trans Kids! THATS the ONLY Family Values I care about!

      The only thing they like about Trump is the afflicted pain. Even if they have to endure the pain, the fact that someone else is also suffering is exactly what they like.

      Family values, religious values, morals… None of that honestly matters to them. They simply want people to suffer.

    I thought maybe she was briefly detained but no, she’s been in custody for a month and may still get deported. Her visa expired 5 years ago.
