Trump voter asks for donations for wife's bond after she's detained by ICE
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.

Rivaling neutron stars in density.
Black holes instead of brains
more like a selective worm hole that goes from one ear and out the other.
they became a dense black hole already.
That's doublethink. Cognitive dissonance is the discomfort you feel from it. Obviously, he feels none.
2 * 0 = 0
also known as mental gymanstics. and thier reality distortion abilities is off the charts.
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.
He probably just wants his wife to stay, but everybody else to be thrown out.
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.
No regrets but a go fund me. Sure, buddy, we believe you.
Americans doing a GoFundMe is always funny to me. Like you clearly understand if you pool together money, you can make a big impact. For example when little Timmy needs a big operation and can't afford it, people can start a GoFundMe, everyone chips in a little bit of money and Timmy is covered. So if we scale that up a bit... NO, THAT'S COMMUNISM!
It’s racism. In America the answer is almost always racism.
Basically, with a GoFundMe, or ‘churches taking care of the poor’, or whathaveyou, you can make sure your money goes only to the poor Good Christian white folks, and none of it gets used to help those icky brown folks. Unlike government programs which have to help everyone equally.
Considering communism has a centrally planned economy this is not analogous at all. You're thinking more in line with social programs which I do agree
No. Fuck you for asking, Bradley Bartell.
This x100.
Donating thoughts and prayers 🙏
The thing is... I'm sure this is how other Trump voters look at him, too. Especially white people with no latino family or friends.
They just see him as a rube.
Sheer delusion. I got news for you chump, Trump doesn't give a shit about fixing anything. He's not going to help you. He doesn't feel gratitude, he doesn't understand ethics. He already told you he only needed your vote one more time, he got it and now you're disposable.
He's a really uninformed and unanalytical person. Exactly the kind of voter trump wants.

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.
$3000? What do we look like were make of eggs… get fucked my guy. You voted for this. I would say suck an egg, but clearly you can’t afford it.
oh man, glad I didn't have mouthful of beverage...or eggs...when I read this, well done!
I'm not against helping but in this case ....
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.
Agreed. But we don't make the law my guy
My vote for Harris was my attempt at helping you. Looks like you’re gonna need some bootstraps, bud.
How do I donate negative amounts?
Is there a r/leopards_ate_my_face here on Lemmy?
Nvm, I found it https://sh.itjust.works/c/[email protected] and this post is already there lol
$3,000? Why won't he use the money trump saved him on eggs?
Checking conservative media, they are saying Trump saved him $2,999.99 in egg costs... So close, sadly not enough.
You'd swear this was in Egypt because that dumbass is in de nile.
What a fucktard
Stupid fucks. Got what he deserved.
I'm not so sure she did, though. Honestly being deported might be better for her than being stuck married to this jackhole, as sad as that is to say.
I am waiting for the follow up story about her leaving him the moment she gets out.
Can't send money, but I've got tons of thoughts and prayers!
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".
Use your own bootstraps.
Sending you thoughts and prayers, like you always do too, prayers are to baphomet, though
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?
Probably the same idiots that are subbing to Andrew Tate’s Hustler’s University.
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.
You can't GoFundMe your way out of being stupid.
You wanna know what you could have done to avoid it? Not vote for the obvious fascist. He literally told you he wanted to do this since 2016.
If this man were to voice any sentiments short of full-throated Trump endorsement, would it make him more likely to see his wife again?
He could be terminally stupid, or this could just be the MAGA version of respectability politics. Pretending you're still one of the good ones so the leopards stay away from your face long enough for you and your loved ones to escape.
It's so frustrating that Camila doesn't deserve any of this, but the person saying they wouldn't change their decision and does deserve to see consequences will refuse to actually feel them.
Like, I want her out, but how dare this asshole say he regrets nothing while asking others to bail him out for the thing he voted for and still wants more of? Why is a social safety net OK in this case to this guy, but not for anyone else?
The detentions are a for-profit endeavor, the people are being treated inhumanely, and this is all some Nazi-level shit. I want all the allies that can be won away from the neofascists. I fucking hate this particular dude's refusal to recognize the taste of boot leather though, even as it impacts his supposed loved ones. It's maddening.
Free Camila.
Yeah, free her from this shitty husband.
i got family members like this; people whose spouses and children alike who are impacted by trump support and i wish i knew how to respond other than simply staying away because doing so also impacts the others around them.
i also wish i knew how to respond to the people who are impacted, but stay by their side nonetheless. like blue maga, they're enabling this behavior, but can't/won't see it.
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.
most likely, some form of "fuck you, got mine"
Of course he has no regrets.
How could he have any regrets? He's suddenly getting so much attention. See points 1 and 2.
Good to see it's only at $800 at this time. I really hope it fails, but i have my doubts.
She sounds like "the worst of the worst". He should be happy she was deported.
Yeah no. Consequences of actions. Didn't your mother teach you?
Truthfully, I don’t feel bad for either of them. He’s a moron and she married the douche.
Whomp whomp
Such a cringe line. The land of the free was declared over fifty years before slavery was abolished. America is a shithole.
Yes. We're going to have to set feelings aside long enough to think carefully.
There's a lot of thinking going on while the U.S. government strips the rights of Americans and endangers many lives globally.
What will putting feelings aside achieve? In order for me to stop being angry at what America is doing, I would have to stop giving a fuck about the atrocities of deporting legal residents who protest or the attempted erasure of the queer community or the genocides they support etc, etc.
Making decisions from passions tend to have unforseen effects.
Ts and Ps 🙏
I'm going to see if it'll let me donate a penny as a get fucked gesture.
Aha ha hahahahaha! Fuck you Trump long. This is the FO part of FAFO.
You can’t fix stupid. Brad I hope you’re suffering as much as your wife.
Fuck no, Brad, donations for rich people and leftists, and we know you’re neither. Trump the fuck up and get you 6-9 other jobs to pay for what you want. Lord helps those who help themselves, and your own bootstraps n shit.
Hmmm I sincerely doubt any money raised by this bigot would go to free his wife...
The only thing I would donate to this dipshit is my debt lol
Doesn't regret voting for Trump but wants help getting bond money. picardFacePalm.jpg
And he's nearly a third of the way there O_O
Voted for asshole that promised to fuck up his life. Asshole fucks up his life. Surprised pikachu face. Doesn’t learn a lesson and asks for money.
The audacity!
Shooting yourself in the foot
2.5k raised on GoFundMe
For a second, I thought that was @DemolitionRanch from YT (just an older photo or something)
