Maga mom still has faith in Trump's mass deportation plan, husband blames Biden

Idiot couple alert

If Arpineh Masihi could vote, she would have cast her ballot for Donald Trump. She's a devout supporter of the US president – even now that she's locked up as an illegal immigrant.

"He's doing the right thing because lots of these people don't deserve to be here," Arpineh told the BBC over the phone from the Adelanto immigrant detention centre in California's Mojave Desert.

"I will support him until the day I die. He's making America great again."

Sixty miles (96 km) away in her home in Diamond Bar, a wealthy suburban city in eastern Los Angeles County, a Trump flag flies over the family's front yard. Maga hats adorn a shelf next to a family photo album, while the family's pet birds chirp in a cage.

It's a lively home, with three dogs and four young children, and Arpineh's husband and mother are bleary eyed and exhausted with worry, trying to put on brave faces.

"Our home is broken," says Arthur Sahakyan, Arpineh's husband.

"I don't blame Trump, I blame Biden," Arthur says. "It's his doing for open borders, but I believe in the system and all the good people will be released and the ones that are bad will be sent back."

While many of those detained do not have criminal records, Aprineh is a convicted felon, which makes her a prime target for removal.

I enjoy the FAFO stories but I fear they are too far gone to ever have any self realization or correct their behavior.

And this is also why Trump’s poll ratings will never drop below 35-40% no matter what he does.

El Salvador if she's really unlucky.

I mean, not if her god-hero gets his way. I’m completely gobsmacked at the depth of her loyalty to a man who would execute her and her “citizen children” if he could.

I'm rooting for her deportation.

In fact, toss her husband and mom in the clink too for harboring. Give the kids to the state and let them deprogram the brainwashing already done.

Jesus Christ, it’s amazes me how people so driven by hatred can be so self destructive.
It’s a cult of wanton ignorance…………

If she had money Scientology might have gotten to her first. Actually, she's just trying to due a public suck-up job to the orange ass in the white house hoping he'll give her special dispensation.
