Summary

Bradley Bartell, a Trump voter from Wisconsin, started a GoFundMe to raise $3,000 for his wife Camila Muñoz’s bond after ICE detained her.

Muñoz, a Peruvian citizen, overstayed her work-study visa due to the pandemic and was seeking legal residency as Bartell’s spouse. She was arrested returning from a honeymoon in Puerto Rico.

Bartell continues to maintain that he does not regret voting for Trump.

Since Trump’s return to office, ICE has arrested over 90,000 immigrants.

    Yeah, no thanks. Actions have consequences. You can visit her when they illegally deport her to some random country, could be anywhere Americans are horrible with geography.

      Damn that sucks if true. I really do feel bad for them, but like what is the point of me donating if he’s not going to speak out against this administration. Doesn’t he realize it’s not just about his situation, but for everyone else who’s also impacted by this? I rather give to another family that will not only use these funds to hopefully turn their situation around but also you know like then also give back/help others and speak out. To be honest I didn’t look into OP’s comment to fact check because you know I’m only human, busy and got problems of my own. If true though this is really sad …

        There are already too many deserving charities for my pocket book. Giving money to an unrepentant Trump voter who got exactly what he voted for gets my sympathy, but not a dime.

        Doesn’t he realize it’s not just about his situation,

        He probably just wants his wife to stay, but everybody else to be thrown out.

        I really do feel bad for them

        Why?

          theres also a study of conservative brains, that thier amydala, fear response is much higher too. so they are totally addicted to fear based rhetoric.

      He must have that TDS that’s going around these days. It makes you talk and act oposite to reason.

      The thoughts I’d be sending are all “fuck this dude, I hope she divorces him when she finds out this is what he voted for”.

    I’m not against helping but in this case …

    1. “overstayed her work-study visa” -> Break the rules and it’s likely there will be consequences. The reason why does not matter. ( although the case handling officer can show sympathy if they seem the reason valid )
    2. I’m no Trump fan, but he was clear on his plans, yet he still voted for trump

    So, no, I’m not donating.

      Yeah fr, this is awful PR. Of course he would vote for Trump again, he is doing exactly what he promised and this fucker knows it.

      She did break the law, any way you look at it.

        Getting to and staying in the country shouldn’t be so hard. To me, that seems like the fundamental issue, and so many breaking the law was a workaround to a shitty system.

    They thought Trump was gonna make them all so rich, now they’re begging for money and eggs. And it’s just the beginning.

    Stay in school.

      Sch… school? They’re dismantling the public institutions keeping education accessible. If they get their way, it’s going to be straight to the farm, factory, and then Republican ballot boxes 18 years later.

    Why the fuck should anybody give this guy money to help him avoid the inevitable consequences of the policy regime that he voted in and still supports?

    My vote for Harris was my attempt at helping you. Looks like you’re gonna need some bootstraps, bud.

    Brad, this is what Trump does. You may succeed in raising that money, but someone else may not be so lucky. What would you say then?

      Brad probably doesn’t give a flying fuck what happens to other people’s families. That’s a core tenet of conservatism in 2025.

        I know, he deserves what he gets. His wife doesn’t seem the sharpest tool in the shed either.
