He got them in that plane using fraud, and then did not even take them to the location he told them he was taking them. He left them stranded on an island with no facilities for immigrants. And he did it all for a political stunt, to help his political ambitions by pandering to his racist, anti-immigrant base.

He lied about everything! Said they were expected, that they would have housing and jobs - took them from another state, sent them to a place that was closing for the season and did not expect them, though the kind locals did step up.

Exactly the things MAGAs are conditioned to ignore. Complaints about hypocrites are welcomed, free advertising for them—it’s their food.

“Sunshine” isn’t effective against these asshats—they must be starved of attention. How? Steal the microphone.

Take away their platform by flooding the airwaves with information from FOIA etc anytime the act is mentioned. Overwhelming the flow of info is the strategy, not better words. Just more words.
