I've recently read that when Trump’s speeches have been translated for non-English speakers, they are wildly different than what he is actually saying.
And when bilinguals translate for them directly, they aren’t believed because the literal translation is pants on the head crazy.
That makes since as they are pants on head crazy in English.
*sense
*autocorrect is a ducking asshole
yes is is.
You two... Get a room.
This article is rage inducing.
The 70-year-old Venezuelan cannot say that he is “regretful” of having voted for the Republican Party, a faction that, he says, aligns with his interests as a Christian and a conservative. But he no longer knows what to think. He arrived from Venezuela in 1994 and, once he had obtained American citizenship, his first vote was for Barack Obama, a guy who seemed “charismatic” to him; he liked the idea of the first African-American in power. But in the following two elections he distanced himself from the Democrats. “Because of the debauchery of the Joe Biden administration,” he says. And by “debauchery” he means issues of gender identity in education or the participation of trans people in sports, with which he does not agree.
So, fuck this Asshole especially very much. Enjoy the deportation you voted for you intolerant dick.
For Ferro, the reasons are clear, and almost the same as those of a community like the Cuban diaspora, settled in the south of Florida, where 68% voted for the Republican. “We Venezuelans have a kind of post-traumatic syndrome with the dictatorship, and that makes us dream that a messiah is going to come to save us from the misfortunes that people are experiencing in our country. That is what made many Venezuelans dream,” he says.
Because dictators NEVER come with messages of being the messiah. What a fucking shocker 😐.
Americans don't actually hold an enforceable monopoly on stupidity, it just seems that way.
No, man. Ignorant hicks are everywhere. Not just Alabama.
TRANS People are RUINING that Man's Love of ~~WNBA~~ ~~NWSL~~ ~~PWHL~~ ~~Women's College Sports~~ WELL if he wasn't Working so HARD to AFFORD Biden's Economy in 2025 he would have TIME to Watch Women's sports!
Religion is the cancer of the mind of the people.
Opiates are the drugs of the bodies of the people of the country in the world today.
I wonder what happened in the early 90s in Venezuela that got so many people to leave...
Oh, right, Perez took an IMF loan, started neoliberalizing the economy, people got angry, the state started killing people, and then lack of bank regulation fucked everything up they spent billions bailing banks out.
My Cuban family and the extended clan who share my heritage are largely morons with regard to voting. All because of the Bay of Pigs.
"Debauchery of the Biden administration" yeah sure ok.
So, fuck this Asshole especially very much.
Welcome to conservativism: you didn't know this?
It's stunning they (1) didn't recognize populist demagoguery with radical disregard for lawful process as a classic warning of approaching dictatorship when they've seen it play out before and (2) couldn't imagine it coming from the right instead of communism. It wouldn't surprise me if they voted in the tyrant they escaped from. They played themselves.
You mean his documented history of lies wasn't a hint that he was lying to you? You deserve whatever happens to you.
Well it’s ok when conservatives lie, they’re doing it for the right reasons, to uphold traditional values and make sure the undeserving underclasses don’t get uppity
Sheep: "They used us as bait for other sheep when they herded us to the slaughterhouse."
Oh, really?
it's worse than that... they realized they were used for bait, they know they are on the way to the slaughterhouse and yet, every single one of these articles states, they STILL do not regret their vote for the republitards.
This one is incredibly on the nose... the first interviewee claims he was tired of the "debauchery" from the Biden admin; by debauchery he means anything that resembles respect for LGBT people, so he votes for a serial sexual predator and pedophile!
Dumb fucks. If you vote for a man who tried to illegally win a prior election, you should expect to get betrayed. Elect a rapist and expect to get fucked. It’s really not that hard.
‘They used us to win votes’
Um, yeahh. That’s why we kept telling you that.
Venezuelans: vote in transgressive, populist demagogue, get transgressive, populist demagogue results, flee home country.
Venezuelan Republicans: do same thing, expect different results, act shocked.
Pretty wild.
Zero sympathy for anyone regretting voting for this guy in 2024. What fucking idiots each and every one of them is.
Trump: I hate you, my voters hate you, and if I win I'm going to hurt you.
Minorities voting for trump: of course he means the other minorities I hate
Minorities that city voted for trump after he won: who is he hurting us 😭😭😭
'They used us to win votes'
These people are impossible to get through to. They were being told they were just being used and now that they realize it they feel cheated. Cheated. They don't feel like fools they don't accept they were stupid. Just cheated.
As a Latino myself I can say I am so disappointed at my brethren... I could not believe the support the Cuban and Venezuelan community would have for Republicans AT ALL, let alone MAGA turds.
Hope they learn their lesson... better late than never I guess
In the meantime, have the day you voted for!
Trump is to Taylor Swift as MAGA is to swifties.
These are just fans who are upset the administration is torturing their families. They're not gong to stop being fans. Best case scenario is one of his fans does the John Lennon thing to him.
Did you mean, "Trump is to MAGA, as Taylor Swift is to swifties"?
That is, the MAGA cult around Trump is comparable to the fan-cult around Taylor Swift? (Neither of which can accept imperfections in their idol?)
The way it was originally written compares Trump and Swift to each other (and MAGA and swifties to each other), which doesn't make much sense. But from the context it's clear you're comparing the nature of their fans. It follows more to switch a few words around.
Not trying to be a jerk, just trying to make sense of things that don't add up with my tired, stressed, autistic brain.
Yeah. I'm pretty sure a lot of us said that from the beginning.
But they never listen. It's a white supremacist party. It has direct lineage to J Edgar Hoover, Joseph McCarthy, and the Confederacy. Conservatives have never been honest, as honesty is against their policy. Power at all cost is their policy. It has always been their policy.
The political party names are bullshit. Liberal is a meaningless term in this country, but they spew it like a firehose to call all opposition it. There are conservatives and progressives. The difference? Conservatives believe some are more equal than others, and progressives believe that equity is more important than most other issues.
"Gee, ya think?"
And you'd still sell out black people for a chance at whiteness if you had the chance.
Calliate pendejo.
Fuck off you dumbfucks.
Duh doy
I do not understand why people cannot see him for what he is. He’s shown everyone over and over again exactly what he is. Yet somehow they tell themselves this time he’ll actually do something right.
Maybe Trump is right. They aren’t sending their best. Please don’t come to my country and voted to fuck it up like you did back home. That’s why you’re here not there.
I like stupid people so much more when their stupidity only affects them.
Have the life you voted for
