MAGA GOP Rep Trashed Over Thumbs Up Photo-Op At El Salvador Prison

West Virginia Rep. Riley Moore traveled to the controversial mega-prison (CECOT) in El Salvador on Tuesday for a photo-op with his thumbs up in MAGA fashion. In a statement posted on the Bad App and Facebook, Moore said, “I just toured the CECOT prison in El Salvador. This maximum security facility houses the country’s most brutal criminals, including murderers, rapists, pedophiles, and terrorists. Several inmates were extremely violent criminals recently deported from the U.S.”

“I leave now even more determined to support President Trump’s efforts to secure our homeland,” he added.

The people deported from the U.S. are human beings who weren’t given due process. What sort of threat was Andry Hernandez Romero, a gay makeup artist who came to this country last year in search of asylum, who is now in that mega prison? And what about Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, who has a wife and child, and was kidnapped in “error,” an error that landed him in CECOT? And there are so many others.

Moore was ripped to shreds on social media.

On Facebook, Moore is going down in flames. One commenter writes, “This is absolutely disgusting and disgraceful,” adding, “These are human beings. Some of them were sent there from our country without due process and without cause.”

He’s getting no support from social media.

What a fucking disgrace. I hope we see all of these bootlickers standing in front of The Hague one day. Front and center. All of them. The United States has become so cruel under Donald’s watch. For the first time in my life, I’m ashamed to be an American.
