Deport to where Donny? You can't just boot out Americans.

[-] someguy3@lemmy.world 88 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

He has a great system to know where someone is from. Used it on Obama. Very smart. The best I'm told. (/s just in case)

[-] evidences@lemmy.world 44 points 2 years ago

God the whole brither movement was stupid. I never once heard any of them deny that his mother was his real mother just that she went to Kenya to give birth. Which is fucking stupid as shit because she was born in fucking Kansas. They way they were on about the whole thing I assumed both his parents were born outside the US but nope.

[-] dudinax@programming.dev 20 points 2 years ago

Not stupid. Look where it got Donny. It's just pure racism.

If you don't like Trump, you're obviously not a real American! Off to Ruanda with you!

[-] red_rising@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago

That’s what you think

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

They'll do a DNA test and deport them to whatever area they have the most ancestry in. Guess I'd be going to Germany!

[-] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago

Mexico; it's happened before.

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Now now, not even TRUMP would be that cruel!

Donors

Hard to avoid these donors when all you read is donors about donors at donor event donor here’s another article about donors.

We deserve names.

[-] ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 32 points 2 years ago

Seriously. The original Washington Post article went to lengths not to identify anyone. FFS.

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 29 points 2 years ago

They won't because those donors probably give to both parties and are friends with the owners of the neoliberal outlets such as WaPo, NYT, MSNBC etc.

To quote George Carlin: it's a big club and you ain't in it.

[-] pineapplelover@lemm.ee 60 points 2 years ago

Against the Gaza what? Say that again?

[-] FlowVoid@lemmy.world 17 points 2 years ago

Trump didn't mention Gaza at all. He just said he would deport student protestors, in order to make foreign students "behave".

[-] nova_ad_vitum@lemmy.ca 22 points 2 years ago

He purposely uses vague language even when talking about specific things so that 1) he can't be held absolutely to account for anything and 2) his followers can fill in the blanks themselves with whatever they want most.

[-] Psychodelic@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago
  1. he doesn't know much about anything himself
[-] Adderbox76@lemmy.ca 36 points 2 years ago

TIL that Trump obviously doesn't know what "Deport" actually means...

[-] EvilEyedPanda@lemmy.world 17 points 2 years ago

He has a very tenuous grasp on the English language, and politics, and economics, and how the weather works, I'm not quite sure what he's actually good at...?

[-] lolcatnip@reddthat.com 3 points 2 years ago

He's a grandmaster con artist. It's his only skill.

[-] Madison420@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

No he's dog shit at that too, he's just got decent pr team and a significant amount of paid cronies.

[-] AlphaOmega@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

The students will be deported to Idaho

[-] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

I get deported back to my own country constantly. Every day, against my will, I find myself here.

[-] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 33 points 2 years ago

8th Amendment, you orange gorilla.

[-] barsquid@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I would say this is primarily a 1A thing, but, yeah, I don't disagree either.

[-] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 26 points 2 years ago

Right. Can’t “deport” your own citizens, as people have already pointed out. However, it’s just an indication of what they’d prefer to do, which is jail them or send them to re-education camps or something.

[-] Unlearned9545@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

The legality of deporting citizens has not stopped America from doing it anyways in the past.

[-] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Yeah, but they were brown. So that’s their excuse.

[-] capt_wolf@lemmy.world 19 points 2 years ago

Fargin icehole...

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago

Something something CANCEL CULTURE.

[-] Potatofish@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

Suddenly the uncommitted feel like voting again.

[-] ettyblatant@lemmy.world 19 points 2 years ago

Nah dude both sides are gross y'know?

/S

[-] jeffw@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago
[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Nah, there's a good chance nothing will happen to them, so they don't care.

[-] ATDA@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

Graduating from cancel culture to deportation culture.

[-] HubertManne@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

oh yeah. well ill deport folks who deport deporters!

[-] DMBFFF@reddthat.com 1 points 2 years ago
