Oh, you’re right. He is originally from El Salvador. I think I may be confusing him with someone else, I thought they sent some Venezuelans to El Salvador.

You are 100% right. It’s so much slower than a competent, dedicated cashier. I’ve been a cashier when I was a kid and I still fucking struggle with the self check out. It won’t let you pick up an handful of small items (like protein bars) and swipe them all before placing them, it won’t let you swipe the same yogurt 5 times and then move its 4 twins to the bag. Even doing one item at a time, it can’t keep up if I get going at a good pace. And it gets confused for seemingly no reason, requiring intervention. And many places have a camera and monitor right in your face like I need to see a fucking mugshot of my 3am ice cream purchase.
And it isn’t deportation. Deportation is sending someone to another country, generally the one they originally came from and where they hopefully have citizenship. This is paying some completely unrelated country to imprison someone with no legal avenue for due process or release. The best description I can come up with is kidnapping and imprisonment abroad.
ETA: it’s been pointed out that Mr Garcia is originally from El Salvador so this isn’t one of the cases where we’re sending Venezuelans to an unrelated country. It’s still super fucked up since the dude had legal status and no criminal record and no due process. Is El Salvador just a lawless dictatorship? The CIA just completely fucked up Latin America for generations :(

41% approving is way too high. WTF is wrong with people? And 51% approved of his handling of gender and trans people? What in the actual fuck? I am so deeply disappointed in my fellow Americans
