      As a South African I find this so cringe. These people are an irrelevant minority still clinging to “the good old days.” Good fucking riddance.

        As a US’ian, I find this so cringe.

        These people will simply enhance the Oligarch Nazi Apartheid MAGAt culture. Which, of course, is the point.

        Good fucking riddance.

        Your gain is our loss. 🙄 🤦‍♀️

      Trump was later seen in the cafeteria, shirtless, yelling “DOG WHISTLE!” through cupped hands when he wasn’t licking (what we hope was) chocolate pudding off his fingers.

      Can’t wait for Trump to do his thing and backstab them the second this publicity stunt loses media attention in 3…2…1…

      They’ll probably get off the plane, take a couple of selfies and board another one directly to El Salvador.
