Temo didn’t figure his vote for President Donald Trump would affect them personally. That was before the enforcement of Mr. Trump’s “zero tolerance” policy toward illegal immigrants.
Alejandra ultimately decided to “self-deport” to Mexico, rather than turn herself in to be detained and then deported. After 20 years in the United States, she no longer has family or friends in the country, so she chose Merida, a city in the Yucatan where a small community of deported military spouses might help her.
Pretty pathetic that a community of deported military spouses exists there. So much for “supporting the troops”.
I’d live in Merida. Its a lovely little city and nice people.
I’m glad, hope my comment didn’t come across as disparaging it. Just sad that a spousal expat community there is even a necessity.
And beaauuuuutiful beaches, omg.
There’s this thing in Roman history, where the Romans basically stopped being warriors and left all the fighting to men from the provinces like Gaul. Despite the Gauls being a part of the Roman Empire for centuries, and being their main fighting force and protectors, the Romans still saw them as barbarians and looked down on them. They were just as educated as Romans by this point but were still seen as others. Of course that eventually blew up in their face when those “barbarians” turned on the the Romans and chased them out of their own city.
Anyways, that’s how Trump supporters view people of color in the military. They fight for them and protect them but they’re still “barbarians” and they don’t want them around.

This articles from 2018.
Hmmm who was President then?
Here’s a follow up where she came back during Biden’s term: https://www.stripes.com/incoming/2021-05-19/‘It-felt-like-a-miracle’-Marine-veteran’s-wife-returns-to-US-three-years-after-being-deported-to-Mexico-1495210.html

It’s probably the guy you voted for because it clearly needs to be spelled out in Crayon for you.
This is an article from 2018 that is very likely to repeat next year
Quite possibly with the same people.
Temo didn’t figure his vote for President Donald Trump would affect them personally.
Boo fucking hoo.
In this thread… People who think this is a current article, and aren’t asking why Biden is splitting up families.
Is this really something you’d approve of Biden doing?
The article is not current, but now it’s not the first time people voted for Trump. 2018 wasn’t Biden’s term.
The post title and 3 top level comments all day 2018. But some people still struggling.
It was edited 2 hours after it got posted so maybe title got changed after the comments.
Oh that’s fair. I thought titles couldn’t be edited
This is the real reason biden lost. Even the people who did read the 2018 are somehow thinking biden was president then.
This article is from 2018.
Who was president then?
Just wait. I’m sure there will be similar articles in 2025 you’ll be able to post.
I really hope every average Joe that voted for him gets exactly what they asked for.
If you don’t have any Trump stories from this decade, it might be time to open your eyes.
Oh he’s changed since then? I guess 4 years is plenty of time for self improvement. Can you tell me what regime he followed?
More like the “journalist” should probably write about something more recent. That’s what I meant.
… It was written in 2018…
No you don’t understand, the “journalist” was supposed to write an accurate article about 2024, back in 2018. Is it real journalism if there’s no time travel or scrying powers involved?
You mean like where he repeatedly promised to do the same thing during his current campaign? Or where he promised to destroy the US economy by imposing 60% tariffs that will cause rampant inflation and destroy working class consumers?
I think as long as the article date is in the title for old news, like this post, the relevant posts are fine.
Having historical references are pretty helpful, and hilarious.
i’m not sure i would call this hilarious.
Oh no…
… anyway
Temo didn’t figure his vote for President Donald Trump would affect them personally. That was before the enforcement of Mr. Trump’s “zero tolerance” policy toward illegal immigrants.
As others have pointed out, the article was from 2018. I wonder how Temo voted this time.
lol idiots
This couldn’t have been Trump, he doesn’t take office until January. Why is the media pretending to care about these stories now?
This article is from 2018, halfway through Trump’s first term in office.

A retired one? I mean I get what you’re saying but I’m not referring to some 50 year old Trumper fatass as a marine just cause he used to do it
Someone that was in the marines but is not currently.
Someone who separated or retired from the Marine Corps. If you’re not putting the uniform on at least once a month anymore then you’re not a Marine anymore. You are a Former Marine and you have an entire community. Yelling at civilians for not getting your inside motivational slogan is peak boot.
I’m sorry, what does this have to do with voting Trump? Trump isn’t in the white house yet, he doesn’t have this power yet. Come January, sure shit will hit the fan but for the moment this doesn’t seem to be a trump issue yet.
This is an article from 2018, this is what Trump has already done. It’s to show what he will continue to do.
It has to do with voting Trump, because it’s a news story from 2018 when Trump was president, and shows what’s going to happen again.
If you had read the article, you might have figured it out on your own.
Then again…
