Hispanic man rethinking Trump vote after ICE encounter: 'They assume we're all illegals'

A naturalized Hispanic man is questioning his vote for President Donald Trump after federal agents detained him at gunpoint.

Jensy Machado was driving to work Wednesday with two other men when they were stopped by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Manhassas, not far from his home, and they quickly surrounded his truck with guns drawn, reported WRC-TV.

"They just got out of the car with the guns in their hands and say, 'Turn off the car, give me the keys, open the window,' you know,” Machado said. “Everything was really fast.”

Machado, who showed WRC reporters documentation showing his legal status, said the agents were seeking a man for a deportation order who had given his home address, and Machado said he didn't know anyone by that man's name and offered to show his REAL ID-compliant Virginia driver’s license.

“They didn’t ask me for any ID,” Machado said. “I was telling the officer, if I can give him ID, but he said just keep my hands up, not moving. After that, he told me to get out of the car and put the handcuffs on me, and then he went to me and [asked] how did I get into this country and if I was waiting for a court date or if I have any case, and I told him I was an American citizen, and he looked at his other partner like, you know, smiling, like saying, can you believe this guy? Because he asked the other guy, ‘Do you believe him?’”

Machado said agents took him out of handcuffs and immediately released him after showing his driver's license, but the other two men were taken into custody – and now he's doubting Trump's immigration enforcement efforts.

“I voted for Trump last election but, because I thought it was going to be the things, you know, like … just go against criminals, not every Hispanic-looking, like – that they will assume that we are all illegals," he said. “That’s what they’re doing now, they’re just following Hispanic people.”
