“Something tells me the President of El Salvador has a surprise for these dipshits when they arrive.”
If this excellent adventure ever happens, it will be 100% for photo-ops and Dems propaganda.
Here is what President Nayib Armando Bukele should do. With some aids he greats our Congressional Poohbahs at the airport. He tells them that the airports best and most secured restaurant has been cleared out for their meeting. The congressmen must surrender all phones and electronic devices.
Our Congressmen never get further than there for this photo-ops excursion. The only photos they go home with are of an airport and a restaurant.
Upon re-entry to the US, every Dem who facilitated this (if it’s successful) should be arrested on charges of human smuggling.
They are going to apply great pressure on him. They will both threaten to blacklist El Salvador in future legislation when they are back in power, and offer to funnel millions of not billions his way if he sends that guy back.
chris and kilmar sittin’ in a tree....
i have money on
it looking like maxine trying to get into govt bldgs to protest DOGE
they will be standing around with no place to go
how is this not a violation of the Logan Act
arent they conducting foreign policy
Simply stop them at customs and send them back, stating El Salvador does not allow supporters of terrorism to enter the country.
Bukele will let them in
and send them thru an endless maze of meetings with low level bureaucrats
endless introductions and protocol that leads to nothing
Preventing them from deplaning on a hot, Salvadoran tarmac in a putrid, humid aircraft for 4-6 hours until refueling & clearance to depart are granted would be simply magnificent.
I’m betting Bukele refuses to meet with them. Give them the ultimate snub and send them back to the US in humiliating fashion.
So this trip will be a stop on their way to the Middle East to free the 5 American hostages held by Hamas?
“Hopefully, a jail cell at CECOT....never to be seen or heard from ever again.”
No. Incarcerate them for breaking El Salvador laws and then Bukele can say after a week it was his mistake and return the politicians to the US.
Make it like Jonestown.
How about a Trump EO word for word reaffirmation of the Logan Act with the intent to apply it to situations like this after they go?
This stunt is so stupid though and it would be a shame to block it.
A group of leftist Democrats pleading with Trump to come rescue them would be delicious.
This is pure grandstanding. They will go there and give speeches for the cameras. They will then come home and scream outrage. Pure theater. Like AOC standing in front of a fence and crying over an empty field.
Rhetorical question: Who will be paying for these farcical excursions?
Look in the mirror.
I think you can guess. You, me and everyone reading this thread.
They’re going to return empty-handed, blaming Trump for strong-arming the Salvadorans.
I hope any Marylanders who mourn the death of Rachel Morin write to Senator D*ck Head (Christopher Van Hollen, Jr.) and any other Democrats who want to go down to El Salvador for the MS13 Gang Members. I hope the Justice Department is monitoring the Senator’s bank accounts for contributions from MS-13.
I hope their Bank Accounts are being investigated for illegal contributions.
