    Entered the US illegally and is now claiming asylum? He’s really hoping being a white conservative is going to stop him from going to jail.

      It might just. Fox News made a big deal about how the government was oppressing the “trucker” convoy. It may be enough of a show for his base that Trump accepts the asylum claim like he did for those white South Africans.

        Well those white South Africans needed that asylum because of the white genocide going on in Africa. /s

        Also Trump has to do something to distract his base from the fact he just had his DOJ do a huge Epstein coverup after promising to bring the pedo cabal to justice for years.

        The irony would be hilarious but I’d wager he’ll make a great propaganda piece to keep the MAGA base in line. They’ll blast his story to convince them that the lack of due process is a liberal lie.
