Summary
Venezuelan migrants in Florida feel betrayed after the Trump administration moved to end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for over 300,000 people.
Many Venezuelan-Americans, who backed Trump in 2024, now fear deportation despite their contributions to the U.S. economy.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem justified the decision by alleging Venezuela sent criminals to the U.S., a claim community leaders reject.
The policy shift coincides with Trump officials negotiating with Venezuela’s authoritarian regime, sparking criticism from Republican lawmakers and concerns among other TPS-protected immigrant groups.
Something something Leopards and faces.
I have no sympathy left for these kind of people. You are not “one of the good ones”, you were used and are now discarded like every usefull idiot eventually is who believes they are somehow special enough to be spared.
This is exactly what he said he was going to do. This is what they voted for.
Given how Trump openly spoke about them while campaigning and outright saying he would deport them, I really don’t know what they expected and I have little sympathy. They enabled the nazis, now they suffer the consequences along with the rest of us.
Can you really call it betrayal when he was saying this is what he wanted all along?
Betrayal by the US Government, not by Trump.
Is there a difference right now?
Two in the thoughts, one in the prayers.
Well that’s a shocker
What were they expecting ?
They thought he’d get rid of “the bad ones”, and forgot that, to the MAGA base, they are ALL “the bad ones”.
Top that off with ICE quotas meaning they’ll go after low hanging fruit e.g. Folks who are law abiding tax payers, and you end out with brown people who wore red hats getting sent back to their home country.
Oh no!
Anyway…
Who could have seen this coming? We had no idea… No one told us… no one said… hey look at this 900+ page plan… Wish we had known.
🙄
/s
It’s the one campaign promise he’s genuinely keeping.
Well well well. If it isn’t the consequences of my actions.
Beyond Betrayal
Do these dumb motherfucker even know what betrayal means? He’s not betraying you, he’s doing what he said he would do. For once in his life you should have believed him.
Oh no! How terrible! Trump voters getting their comeuppance!
I getcha but you see I still have to live under this administration to. I would like to laugh at the leopards eating their face but im in the same room with the leapard that I did not vote to let into the room.
That’s the only reason I’m happy to see it. If we have to suffer, seeing our friends and family get deported over stupid ideas like “citizenship”, so do they. Nations are made up bullshit, so belonging to one is nonsense.
Face, meet leopard.
I’m starting to sound like a broken record.
Out of curiosity, how could they vote though? Isn’t a citizenship a requirement?
The ones who voted were citizens. The simple answer to why they voted for Trump is that when you’re fleeing an oppressive socialist state, you don’t want to vote for anything resembling socialism, and they didn’t expect Trump to end temporary protected status for their friends and families.
Makes sense that way. Well, as others mentioned, leopards eating faces everywhere… Though looking from EU - there is no socialism in US in both parties. :)
It would make sense if they’d voted against oppression instead of against socialism.
Sure, agreed. The explanation made sense, not their logic.
Perceived socialism.
It said they backed him, which just means publicly spoke in his favor. But some of them may have their citizenship. That is often a goal of migrants
Bunch of twats forgot that Trump is just the orange version of the mortadela. Once a populist victim, always a populist victim. Just because they hate the same people you hate, doesn’t mean they love you.
Thoughts and prayers to you.
