Brent Jindra, a tech salesman, voted for President Trump three times, drawn by his aggressive immigration agenda. He never imagined the crackdown would ensnare his own wife.

“She did not jump a wall, she did not swim a river,” he said. “She came in Trump’s beautiful, big front door.”
I'm sorry for her. He's too stupid to tie his shoes.
