Florida Republican says Cuban-refugee parents ā€œare now just as American, if not more so, than Stephen Miller

A Republican state lawmaker in Florida who founded Latinas for Trump condemned the administration’s sweeping immigration arrests across the state despite the president’s months-long campaign that promised the largest ā€œmass deportation operationā€ in American history.

ā€œThis is not what we voted for,ā€ state Sen. Ileana Garcia said in a statement Saturday. ā€œI have always supported Trump, through thick and thin. However, this is unacceptable and inhumane.ā€

She said her Cuban-refugee parents ā€œare now just as American, if not more so, than Stephen Miller,ā€ among the architects of Trump’s anti-immigration agenda demanding 3,000 daily immigration arrests.

    Sorry to inform you idiots…

    It’s exactly what you voted for and you knew it (but ignored it) at the time… And, you did it anyway.
