Don Lemon is having a subject day over the “stupid” MAGA civil battle unfurling on-line over immigration coverage.
“Now you’re finding out, you dumb fucking idiots,” Lemon said in the latest installment of his YouTube video collection after abandoning Musk’s social media platform X.
“Now you’re just figuring this shit out. You’re so fucking stupid and you deserve it. You fucking deserve it because you’re so dumb. Yes, I am gloating over your stupidity,” Lemon declared. “You have been co-opted, you’re in a fucking cult and you don’t even realize it because you have stupid MAGA brain and you don’t get it. How stupid and dumb are you?”
The previous CNN anchor’s schadenfreude was sparked simply after Christmas, when Donald Trump’s appointed billionaire tech bros Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy proudly pushed for the hiring of international employees by way of H-1B visas, saying U.S.-born residents are suffering from “laziness” and that American tradition “has venerated mediocrity over excellence for way too long.”
However nativists and different high-profile MAGA supporters akin to Laura Loomer and former Rep. Matt Gaetz determined to go head-to-head with the billionaire tech bros. Extra so, the MAGA cultists lastly appeared to appreciate that Trump’s sugar daddies have an excessive amount of energy and too little curiosity in bettering the lives of the American folks.
Regardless of Trump’s loyal supporters taking over digital arms in opposition to the tech bros, the felon-elect issued a press release in help of Musk and Ramaswamy’s pro-immigration sentiment.
“I have many H-1B visas on my properties. I’ve been a believer in H-1B,” Trump stated, drawing a transparent line within the sand together with his xenophobic supporters who’re in opposition to all or most immigration.
“I have used it many times. It’s a great program,” he declared.
Trump, who restricted and criticized entry to international visas throughout his first time period as president, added, “I’ve always liked the visas, I have always been in favor of the visas. That’s why we have them.”
Ramaswamy and Musk apart, Trump’s resolution to nominate Sriram Krishnan as senior coverage adviser on synthetic intelligence appears to be what kick-started this entire fiasco.
Loomer was one of many first MAGA die-hards to take the offensive on Trump’s resolution, declaring Krishnan’s previous help of accelerating the inexperienced card cap and hiring expert international employees.
Throughout her tirade, through which she additionally by chance doxxed (or revealed private details about) the Indian-born entrepreneur, Loomer acknowledged that Trump’s posse of tech bros truly don’t stand for what Trump has marketed.
“It’s alarming to see the number of career leftists who are now being appointed to serve in Trump’s admin when they share views that are in direct opposition to Trump’s America First agenda,” she wrote on X.
Gaetz additionally joined in, declaring that whereas immigration is important, America’s immigration system is “often abused by big tech” or, extra particularly, the large tech billionaires now in Trump’s ear.
“This is why big tech doesn’t really give a rip about our failing schools—they plan to import the human talent while Americans are given irrelevant schooling—at high cost.”
And whereas MAGA supporters had been beforehand applauding Trump’s very unofficial Division of Authorities Effectivity (aka DOGE), Loomer went on Steve Bannon’s podcast to level out what everybody else has been saying all alongside: the “unfettered access” these tech heads should Trump is regarding.
“If you have a bunch of tech bros with billions of dollars and unfettered access [to the president],” Loomer asked, “what does that mean for us and the future of [our country]?”
And whereas Musk is telling the Loomers and nativists to “fuck [themselves] in the face,” the rest of America is just sitting back and watching another juicy episode of “The Real Housewives of the White House.”
As Lemon put it, MAGA voters “fucked around”—and now they’re “finding out.”
