MAGA supporters’ faith in Donald Trump is going strong. A 39-year-old MAGA supporting mom was recently arrested and sent to a detention center in the Mojave Desert. The woman has refrained from blaming Trump despite the “very challenging” situation she’s suffering.
Arpineh Masihi, 39, and a mom of 4, was arrested by ICE agents in Diamond Bar, Los Angeles County, California. The woman was called up by ICE agents prior to her arrest. Within the next 30 minutes, the agents were at her doorsteps.
Maishi was born in Iran and has been residing in the United States since she was 3 years old. She entered the States with refugee status and received a green card after.
The mother of 4 was arrested for a theft conviction from 17 years ago. Masihi’s husband, Arthu Sahakyan, revealed that the conviction was for something that was “less than $200.”
Even after the “challenging” conditions she has faced, the mother of two has continued to maintain her faith in President Trump. “He’s doing the right thing because lots of these people don’t deserve to be here,” the woman told the BBC. She went on to declare that she would support Trump until the day she dies. “He’s making America great again,” she added.
Arthu Sahakyan, her husband, seems to maintain the same stance despite his wife’s arrest. Even though he realizes how his wife’s arrest has led to his home being “broken,” Sahakyan hasn’t put the blame on Trump.

“We are Christians. She can’t go back, there’s no way,” he told the BBC. Iran is a nation with a Shia Islam majority. The husband has also expressed his unwavering faith in Trump to do the right thing. “I don’t blame Trump, I blame Biden,” the father of four said.
He went on to blame the former President and his administration for their lax border and immigration policies. Sahakyan noted that he is certain that the current administration will release all the “good people” and “the ones that are bad will be sent back.”
Maishi’s green card was revoked in 2008 after she was convicted of burglary and grand theft. She also served 2 years in prison after the reported $200 theft. After she got out of jail, she started a business and a family. Maishi and Sahakyan are co-parents to four kids aged 14, 11, 10, and 4.

The family has Trump flags in their yard that have not come off following Maishi’s arrest. In fact, the woman’s husband has stood by the Trump administration’s decision to arrest his wife. He pointed out how he misses his wife, but arresting individuals like her “will resolve a lot of issues because we’ll know exactly who’s in here, for what reasons.
He further justified Trump’s immigration crackdown by saying the President wasn’t trying to do “anything bad.” The father of four claimed that the 79-year-old was doing what was “best for the country” while saying that he and his wife understand.
