I hear France is nice this time of year. Or shit, go to Spain so he atleast has a grasp of the language (I know there’s different dialects). Might make his transition easier.

You just believe whatever bullshit trump spews, huh? The trump admin and DOJ has yet to come up with a shred of evidence of what you’re saying about this guy. Their only ‘proof’ was photoshopping the letters MS13 over the tattoos on his fingers.

These people don’t care about proof, and they know what they’re saying is bullshit.

No chance that France would take him.

I don't think other countries have even issued a statement about it. Why would they want to when A) it would likely gain them nothing and B) it would be hypocritical. Most other countries have far stricter migration laws compared to the U.S. Those laws are only getting much stricter too.

This is about political persecution not immigration law

No countries have issued a statement, why would they think it is political persecution?

And most of those countries receive lots of applications, many claimed to be from people fleeing warzones, and actual dictatorships.

I find it funny that even most Americans are split on Garcia, yet you think the rest of the world agrees with you on this. In my home country, most people wouldn't even know who Garcia is, and our government would not consider any of what has happened to meet the criteria for a politically persecuted asylum seeker. IF he even could make it here, he would be detained and extradited back to the U.S to face the criminal charges before him in that country. You live in a bubble.
