Trump Voter Chooses Trump Over His Own Wife's ICE Detention - The Logical Leftist



A Trump voter in Wisconsin had his Peruvian wife detained by ICE after their honeymoon — and he still insists “Trump will fix it.”

In this video, I break down the story of Bradley Bartell and his wife, Sylvia Camilla Muñoz-Lira, who overstayed a visa, built a life in the U.S., and was suddenly ripped away at an airport. No criminal record. No violence. Just a system doing exactly what Trump and MAGA demanded — and a supporter who refuses to connect his vote to the consequences for his own family.

How to tell if a person is in a cult?
AI Overview
Signs someone is in a cult include isolation from loved ones, excessive loyalty/fear of the leader, authoritarian control with no questions allowed, a black-and-white worldview (leader/group is always right), financial/emotional exploitation, and demonizing outsiders, making leaving feel impossible or evil. They often experience a sudden shift in values, limited outside thinking, and an unreasonable fear of the outside world, seeing it as catastrophic or evil.

5. What's the problem? All he has to do is buy her a 5-million-dollar Trump Gold Card and all will be well.
