Trump Fan Who Believed Trump Would Only Deport Bad Hombres Just Got Terrible News

http://occupydemocrats.com/2017/03/23/trump-fan-believed-trump-deport-bad-ones-just-got-terrible-news/




rump’s lies aren’t just a problem for Washington insiders and the media. They’re having a tragic effect on actual lives – even the lives of people who supported him.

One such supporter is Helen Beristain. She believed Trump when he said he was only interested in deporting hard criminals. This week, she learned that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (I.C.E.) is scheduled to deport her husband, Roberto Beristain – owner of a popular restaurant in a conservative community in Northern Indiana – to Mexico tomorrow.

We know what you’re thinking. Helen’s husband must be one of Trump’s ‘bad hombres,’ a drug dealer, perhaps, or maybe a rapist, or a gang leader. Not exactly.

His crime that ran him afoul of Trump’s deportation force? Accidentally entering Canada 17 years ago.

Why the FUCK was she worried enough about 'criminal' immigrants to vote for someone as reprehensible as Trump?

I detect classism, racism and assholishness on her part

.typical "They don't mean ME. They must be talking about someone else!" republican thought process.

Sorry, but I'm fresh out of both fucks and sympathy for any Trump supporter but even less so someone belonging to any of the demographic groups that Trump specifically said he was going to act against if elected.
