This particular Trump supporter is finding it nearly impossible to keep her Trump merchandise store open since President Trump initiated war in Iran. Too many of his supporters are saying this isn’t what they voted for, and she’s finding many of them are backing off of their support for the man.

Grandmother Detained After Ireland Trip
Donna Hughes-Brown, an Irish green card holder who has lived in the US since the 1970s, has been detained by ICE since returning from a trip to Ireland on July 29th. Donna moved to the US with her family when she was only 11, and has been a legal resident since 1977. However, she never applied for US citizenship, as she felt that would require giving up a part of herself.
Hughes-Brown’s husband of 8 years, Jim Brown, had the following to say about her detainment: “You don’t arrest 58-year-old grandmothers. It’s just wrong. She hasn’t committed crimes. You just don’t do that.”
Brown, a U.S. Navy veteran of 20 years’ service, has admitted to Newsweek that he voted for Donald Trump in last year’s presidential election but has quickly come to regret it “100 percent”.Donna was detained over a bad check she wrote in 2015 for $25. She has since paid back the money, but has this misdemeanor on her record. For the Trump administration, that’s enough for her to be detained and possibly deported. We shall see in the coming days what happens to her over this, but I suspect she’ll be sent back home and not allowed into the US in the near future.

Some Cuban MAGA voters facing deportation in Florida
So, some Cuban’s currently living in Florida who voted for Donald Trump (along with other candidates on the conservative side of the ballot, I’m guessing) are now finding themselves facing deportation under the president’s massive ICE-raids push:
Some are being sent back because when they requested asylum, they said they were afraid to return to their home country. Only they later returned to Cuba, then came back to the US, and now ICE is saying they received their permanent residency status via fraudulent means. In other words, if one is scared to return to their home country, why are they then returning to said country, even if only temporarily?
Anyway, this is another case of FAFO
hitting some people hard in the face. And I, for one, have no idea how this will turn out in the end for those who chose this road. All we can do is hold tight for the next 3.9 years and see where we end up as a country.
