Mamdani has been a naturalized U.S. citizen since he was boy. You can&#8217;t deport a U.S. citizen. Good grief, the man <em>wants <\/em>to live in the United States.

Wait! She was born in South Carolina to parents of Indian descent. I guess her parentage made the all-American governor a deportation target.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>You cannot negotiate with a political movement that comprises so many of these morons!<\/p>\r\n\n<div class=\"twitter-share\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?via=jkanelis\" class=\"twitter-share-button\">Tweet<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The ignorance of the morons who comprise many of Donald Trump&#8217;s MAGA base continues to astonish me in ways I never thought possible.
