As a Result of Trump’s Policies, Trump Supporters are Now Paying A Lot More in Taxes to Care for Illegals
Trump’s crusade against Hispanic illegal immigrants has really been the central platform of his administration. From day one, Trump promised to kick out all Hispanics from the country. This was music to the ears of his uneducated supporters, who had lost their jobs to cheap illegal labor. Trump rode these promises to the White House.
Once in office, Trump brought his mission to a new stage of ugliness, by actually splitting up illegal families and keeping the little toddler in cages. Trump supporters condoned this disgusting torture of little children, by asserting Hispanics will think twice before trying to sneak into the country. As a result, Trump’s “religious right” actually back his detention policies!
Trump’s immigration detention policy kills a million birds with one stone. By tearing these little babies from their mother’s bosom, Trump is acting on a campaign promise, he is rewarding his biggest campaign donors, he is also satisfying the republican party central dogma of punishing those looking for a handout. For Trump, it is a win-win.
What gets his supporters furious is the thought that these illegal immigrants will sneak into our country and then go to the hospital and collect welfare, essentially costing them an arm and a leg in taxes.
This right here is the core republican principle. Republicans echo the same ideology when it comes to poor people living on welfare. It is a brilliant method, that works perfectly for republicans.
‘They are just lazy. Don’t give them any money. Instead, let’s give it to the wealthy, who will use the money responsibly. Eventually, it will trickle back down to you.’
Look how effective Trump’s tax cuts were! LOL! What disgusted me most about that tax break, was how quickly it was passed. Meanwhile, republicans fought Obamacare tooth and nail, for years! Republicans fought Obamacare more passionately than any other fight in the history of their party. Now, compare the two legislation. Despite republican’s attempt to kill Obamacare, the public demands its survival. Trump’s tax breaks were such an utter failure, they didn’t even mention it during midterms. Hmmmm……
Republicans conjure up these images of minorities spitting out babies like hotcakes; each additional one, gets more welfare. In effect, republican voters get furious and vote republican. Even though that vote will cost their child’s education and their parent’s healthcare, as long as their taxes are not going to minorities or to the well being of illegal immigrants, they will sleep easier.
However, Trump’s new border detention policy is forcing the tax payer to pay quadruple amounts more on illegal aliens. In fact, Immigration and Customs Enforcement has just called for FIVE new detention facilities to be built. ICE spends more than $2 BILLION a year on immigration detention facilities.
Trump is giving SO much money to these detention facility companies, he actually has to take away money from other sources.
Talk about delicious irony! These morons voted for Trump so their taxes would not go to illegals. However, because of their vote, much MORE of their taxes will go to the tender love and care of illegals.
Keep in mind, this money is not going to our government. There are actually detention facility companies, that profit off of the imprisonment of others.
To make this even more interesting: these same detention facility companies, that are taking our tax dollar, were some of Trump’s biggest campaign donors.
For example, ICE and US Marshals Service pay the GEO Group $32 million a year to provide a roof, some food and medical care for thousands of detained immigrants.
Under the Trump administration, GEO Group has spent just under $1.3 million lobbying the government, and it spent more on the 2016 election than it had in the past seven years combined. Lobbying expenditures from the private prison industry overall are on pace to reach $3 million this year.
The private prison industry has thrived under Trump. Shortly after the election, stocks soared for the two largest private prison corporations, GEO Group and CoreCivic. Trump’s Department of Justice reversed a plan to reduce the use of private prisons in February 2017, paving the way for new government contracts for the industry. In April 2017, the GEO Group received a $110 million government contract to build an immigrant detention center in Texas. The same month, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) gave CoreCivic a contract extension on its 1,000 bed immigrant processing center in Houston, Texas. GEO Group has received $774 million in government contracts in 2017 so far, and the company’s stocks have continually increased in response. This week, Bank of America increased its ownership of the company’s stock by over 2500 percent due to favorable forecasts. CoreCivic has ongoing contracts with the Department of Homeland Security and Department of Justice worth several billion dollars. The stock price for both companies has increased over 100 percent since Trump was elected. — Observer
In the end, Trump will be sipping a Mai Tai on the top of Trump Tower. His supporters will still be waving their burning crosses and wearing their MAGA hats. In the end, the illegal immigrant, who trekked hundreds of miles through jungle and desert to improve their families lives, and then gets kicked back over the border, they stand the most to lose.
I’d trade you 100 toothless and uneducated Trumpkins for just one of those hard working illegal immigrants.
