Not actually surprised. These people are evil, not stupid. He knows he drove away the low paid immigrant workers, they just want a way to blame them anyway.

Hallmark of fascism - the enemy is so strong that they'll steal your jobs, but also is weak and cowardly and deserves the poor treatment we give them.

They should agree to go and do the job but instead go there with guns.

Why? This comment is weird.

I think they were saying to go murder desantis and the other Republicans? Which... Okay. I'd nullify if I was on that jury.

As much as I hate DeSantis, I don't think calling for the murder of a U.S. politician (and governor) on social media is a smart move.

NSA agents, if you're reading this, I don't condone any of this!

But for the sake of the discussion: it was a weird comment for several reasons:

  • Come back with guns: why leave in the first place, then? They could have just legally purchased guns in Florida and use them for whatever OP implied, without leaving at all.

  • A situation involving migrants with guns would just make Florida republicans say "See? These people are dangerous and shouldn't be here. DeSantis was right!"

That's why I found the comment weird. But come to think of it, it's quite stupid too.

I think what they're trying to say is that immigrants should go there to do the job but instead immigrants are only going there with guns. Typical republican propaganda.
