‘I want my vote back’: Trump-voting family stunned after Canadian mother detained over immigration status (www.theguardian.com)

The family of a Canadian national who supported Donald Trump’s plans for mass deportations of immigrants say they are feeling betrayed after federal agents recently detained the woman in California while she interviewed for permanent US residency – and began working to expel her from the country.

“We feel totally blindsided,” Cynthia Olivera’s husband – US citizen and self-identified Trump voter Francisco Olivera – told the California news station KGTV. “I want my vote back.”

Cynthia Olivera, a 45-year-old mother of three US-born children, thus joined a growing list of examples contradicting the Trump administration’s claims that the immigration crackdown it has spearheaded since the president’s return to the Oval Office in January has prioritized targeting dangerous criminals.

Well, Canadian, obviously a commie with the healthcare etc

dumb fucks.

what did they actually think would happen? the shit he said he was going to do was going to be directed at everyone but them because they were "special"?

Yes, because they are special... Only brown, dirty, poor people would get kicked out or dissapeared. They are ok with that. They have money so evidently it would not affect them.
