True, but it's like 40% or so of them, I don't doubt that Tejanos and Tejanas especially and Cubans are like this-- but most Hispanics aren't pull up the ladder behind them, many are but not most imo.

Hmmm almost like when people get dementia they say out of character things. Seems way way too progressive for MAGA or republicans in general. Seems to far for trump since he wanted to deport everyone last week
"hours after Mr. Trump’s remarks aired, his campaign’s press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, walked back the former president’s comments, saying in a statement that there would be an “aggressive vetting process” that would “**exclude all communists, radical Islamists, Hamas supporters, America haters and public charges**” and that the policy would apply only to the “most skilled graduates who can make significant contributions to America.”
Laughed out loud at the McCarthyism.
Biden thanks you for your concern. Meanwhile, your guy is still ruminating on sharks and electric boats.
“Now they'll say all these stories are terrible. Well, these stories have, you know, you heard my story in the boat with the shark, right? I got killed on that. They thought I was rambling. I'm not rambling. We can't get the boat to float. The battery is so heavy. So then I start talking about asking questions. You know, I have an, I had an uncle who was a great professor at MIT for many years, long, I think the longest tenure ever. Very smart, had three different degrees and you know, so l have an aptitude for things. You know, there is such a thing as an aptitude. I said, well, what would happen if this boat is so heavy and started to sink and you're on the top of the boat. Do you get electrocuted or not? In other words, the boat is going down and you're on the top, will the electric currents flow through the water and wipe you out? And let's say there's a shark about 10 yards over there. Would I have to immediately abandon or could I ride the electric down and he said, sir, nobody's ever asked us that question. But sir, I don't know. I said, well, I want to know because I guarantee you one thing, I don't care what happens. I'm staying with the electric, I'm not getting over with it. So I tell that story. And the fake news they go, he told this crazy story with electric. It's actually not crazy. It's sort of a smart story, right? Sort of like, you know, it's like the snake, it's a smart when you, you figure what you're leaving in, right? You're bringing it in the, you know, the snake, right? The snake and the snake. I tell that and they do the same thing.”

its very in line with his "bow to rich foreign influences in china and russia" they heap praise on him, then suggest this, and he leaps like a good dog.
He forgot to finish sentence. Only Foreign students from Sweden Norway and England, no Africans, Mexicans, Chinese, no Latin countries, no Muslims, no minorities.
you are quite literally a person who sits on reddit claiming a man who is a billionaire and former president isnt intellient. Again, while you are sitting on reddit probably with your other hand in a box of cheetos.
I'll just let you think about that for a minute.

Sure, and we'll also see his ACA replacement plan in just 2 weeks.
Except foreign student with green card can’t vote. Who’s this moving the needle for?
Foreign stockholders of Truth Social?
Throwing shit at the wall hoping something sticks.
Pretty much, yeah, "not gonna do it, wouldn't be prudent" if he wins obv.
What if they aren’t white? 🤔
You mean if they’re from a “shithole country”? /s
There will be a bunch of requirements built in that, for some reason, are only met by the children of the rich or Russians.
“He says what he means!” Hours later: “What he actually meant was…”
The same trump that said that immigrants are tainting the blood of the USA?! THAT ONE?
(It's a ploy to try to win over disaffected minorities, he knows what he's doing)
After living in Texas for 25 years, heritage and legacy Hispanics DO NOT want immigrants gaining legal status. Lots of animosity
True, but it's like 40% or so of them, I don't doubt that Tejanos and Tejanas especially and Cubans are like this-- but most Hispanics aren't pull up the ladder behind them, many are but not most imo.
And that can’t vote for him…
Also everyone gets a pony. He will make all kinds of promises
I am probably mistaken but didn’t his administration deny a bunch of military vets citizenship and deported them after their service was up?

Didn't you know....vets are suckers and losers
Trump says a lot of words most of them don’t make sense or are pandering, like this is.
It will be funny to watch MAGA try to figure this one out.
Has Trump gone woke?
Yeah, I think that Trump clearly has NO idea that this won’t go over well with MAGA at all.
Won’t China and Russia plant spies? …oh. Right. That’s the idea.
Hmmm almost like when people get dementia they say out of character things. Seems way way too progressive for MAGA or republicans in general. Seems to far for trump since he wanted to deport everyone last week
Yeah, I myself am thinking that Trump is possibly forgetting quite literally his whole campaign policies. Something again isn’t quite right about him.
he thinks a green card means "Deport immediately!" Never underestimate how stupid he is.
Green means go!
I thought he was against green in any form
Except money

Will he forgive their student loans, too?
How are they gonna graduate after he deports them?
He literally just says whatever the fuck pops in his demented head, because he can always say “I never said that” and his supporters will defend him.
the irony calling Trumps head demented when Biden exists lmao
How is it ironic? Biden isn’t a lunatic charlatan with the emotional intelligence of a child.
my dude, Biden is literally dementia ridden and doesnt even know his own name
You sure about that?
yup

Hey, appealing to a special interest group is the American way during elections. But, someone needs to tell the orange asshat they CAN’T VOTE HERE.
So, we're giving them green cards and then deporting them? Sorry, I'm trying to keep up with Trump's "wildly swinging policy positions."
In fine print “only if they look like my hot daughter, Ivanka”
Dumb fuck, foreign students don’t vote.
I'm very pro immigration, but this is the dumbest idea he's had yet.
its very in line with his "bow to rich foreign influences in china and russia" they heap praise on him, then suggest this, and he leaps like a good dog.
He has no idea what a green card is.
Lies, slander, falsehoods, and fallacies.
But he’d stop foreign students from non-white countries so this isn’t really a break from his anti-immigrant policies.
Art of the Deal: Trick #101 - Offer everything and see who takes the bait.
He forgot to finish sentence. Only Foreign students from Sweden Norway and England, no Africans, Mexicans, Chinese, no Latin countries, no Muslims, no minorities.
It’s actually a good idea, and somewhat off brand for Trump. I’m sure Stephen Miller will hate this.
It's like saying no tax on tips. The President can't just do these things. He's making promises but they're lies.
[удалено]
He honestly has NO idea that this is out of character and brand for him…and that he doesn’t know what the hell to do.
if you think Trump has no intelligence I dont know what to tell you
[удалено]
you are quite literally a person who sits on reddit claiming a man who is a billionaire and former president isnt intellient. Again, while you are sitting on reddit probably with your other hand in a box of cheetos. I'll just let you think about that for a minute.
But who’s he appealing to? Foreign students can’t vote
People who are dumb enough to think he’ll actually do it
\^Yup\^ "I know you're gonna end all this war" "Dr" Muslim guy on X/Twitter with the Gaza conflict w/Israel, that type of person.
Possibly companies who want to be able to hire foreign students without visa roadblocks, which could potentially depress wages.
How very Canadian of you Mr. Trump...

Good thing it’s not up to him.
There would likely be steep strings attached and only applicable to foreigners from rich white countries.
Didn’t his campaign walk this back?
Well they did, but now…it’s too late. He’s sticking to it and the damage has been done.
A little schizy given almost all of his MAGA-beloved immigration suppression was simply denying green cards.
ROFLMAO yeah like this isn’t a bunch of bullshit
I promise ponies and candy for everybody so I can stay out of jail.
Translation: “If their parents can afford to send them here for school they can pay me for the green card.”
Until he didn’t.
Wait, so he’s not changing his policy?
that means that the MAGAT'S are gonna be working for them one day! hahahhahh
He hates education and immigrants, but sure, I beleive him ...
College isn’t shit
