Activists in swing Michigan county are alarmed by Hispanic voters backing Trump despite his anti-immigrant rhetoric
Dan Soza has seen the harsh realities of Donald Trump’s immigration policies up close and so he is alarmed that many Latino voters in Saginaw, Michigan, do not take seriously the former US president’s threats of mass deportations.
As a child welfare officer in Saginaw, Soza places young unaccompanied refugees in foster families and watched the Trump administration’s separation of children from their parents at the Mexican border in 2018 with alarm. He said the cruelty of that policy, and the former president’s threats against refugees legally in the US, should serve as a warning that Trump might do what he says.
“A lot of people who are Latino or Hispanic – whether it be in Saginaw, Michigan, or in the country – when they hear him say those things, they don’t think he’s talking about them,” said Soza.
“What really worries me is that people don’t remember their history. This has happened before. We’ve seen mass deportations before and when it happened American citizens were deported.”

Brah…she’s got guns! 🤦♀️
Walz is a regular hunter.
No one is coming for the guns. Oy…
Critical thinking is not a thing for conservatives.
Thinking at all, they outsourced it to media companies run by the billionaires who want tax breaks so they can make more money.
The money they make is insane, say they could save money on construction costs by buying in bulk. The top 5 in this country can build 100 $250,000 houses every day and give them away and they would still be making money… It would never touch the money they have currently… In fact they would still grow richer if they make more than 5% interest on the money they currently have.
Also can we just admit we’ve lost the damn plot as a country when the fact that a presidential candidate and her vp are armed is seen as a selling point?
Depending on your general philosophy, and how you value various issues, anything could be a selling point to someone. It’s hardly a lost plot, a lot of people value the great equalizer. “God made man, Samuel Colt made man equal” -dunno who said it
That’s exactly what I told him lol he’s somewhat better than an actual Magoo in that he’ll listen to a degree, but I think he still falls for whatever right wing media he’s listening to at the time.
