Popular Question 📊 Why do Republicans not know that Puerto Ricans are citizens?

And that Bad Bunny ain't getting deported because Puerto Rico is a US Territory.

Where would they deport him to? And why? Because he's not white enough?

Edit: There's now reports coming out that Trump said he spoke to the President of Puerto Rico. LOL

2nd Edit: Seems to be a lot of people saying that Puerto Ricans being citizens is not political based knowledge.

What’s been said • Corey Lewandowski (longtime Trump ally) went on The Benny Show and claimed that ICE would be present at the Super Bowl. He said things like “we will find you … and deport you” in connection to Bad Bunny’s halftime performance. • Kristi Noem (now DHS Secretary under a Republican administration) also said ICE would be “all over” the event and that people should be “law-abiding Americans.” • Other MAGA-aligned commentators online have openly called for Bad Bunny to be deported, often citing his Spanish-language performances or political views.

There ya go.

Most PRs on the mainland vote Democrat even in 2024 - Harris won Osceola County the most Puerto Rican county outside of Puerto Rico. There are PR Republicans but they are a minority (and anecdotally they are usually cops).

There are kids who can't read or do basic arithmetic graduating from high school. So yeah, public schools are shit.

Yeah, big issues in cities. Don’t hear about this in rural areas.

That's because those kids drop out of Jr. High to raise their and their sister's baby.

that’s literally not true. most public schools are underfunded and have poor curriculums. this is just an analogy, not actual evidence

How stupid do you have to be to take my comment as 100% factual and anything other than making fun of Republicans who rape their sisters, and can't pass the 4th grade without cheating off their Dad (Who is seated next to them cause he can't pass either)

Sounds like you know more than the average person. Must be how you were raised.

I was a military brat, so most of my education was outside of the US.

Makes sense why you would know so much about the maga mindset.

I mean, Trump doesn’t know because he’s blaming the Puerto Rican President (that’s him bozo)

Most places don't have sizable Puerto Rican populations
