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.

      Or he just doesn’t really love her and maybe he already has his sights set on some new lady.

      I wouldn’t even rule out that he or a close family member might have been the one to call ICE.

        You’d think he’d do that before the expenses of a soon-to-be irrelevant wedding.

    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.

    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.

    Criticized ICE inefficiency

    Sounds like he regretted getting married and wanted her deported sooner

    MAGA is the mental illness of conservatism in its final fascist-death-cult form.

    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.

    Let’s assume he actually loves his wife, and then let’s assume she gets to stay, and gets her citizenship or a green card. Will he still support Trump after the third or fourth time ICE picks her up? They don’t seem particularly concerned about whether the person they’re abducting is here legally or illegally.

    This should tell you everything there is to know about MAGAs. They will gladly put their own wife in custody to supplicate to the orange cult of Krasnov. Superman fought for truth Justice and the American Way, and none of those are part of Trump’s America.

    Please eat my face more, daddy jaguar!

    The mental gymnastics are real. Confirmation biases confirmed!
