The “Maple Syrup MAGAs” and a varied audience for Trump’s event in Washington

“We are the MAGA of Maple Syrup. We come from Canada, from Ontario,” said David Speicher, 44, who does not take the president’s words about annexing Canada very seriously: “I think Trump knows that the traditional media takes whatever he says. “It’s just stirring things up.” Speicher, a doctor in virology and researcher at the University of Guelph, explains why he supports Trump: “There have been a lot of things wrong in the last four years like the covid vaccines. I don’t support the guy himself, but his entire team, like RFK Jr [Robert F. Kennedy Jr, conocido por su postura antivacunas]. It is the entire group that can make things change.”

Also in the group of Canadians is Brian, 59 years old. “We have come to witness a historic moment. This is an event that only happens once in a lifetime. We fervently support Donald Trump. We were part of the truckers convoy movement for freedom in Canada,” the group that challenged vaccination mandates and health restrictions in the country. “It’s funny to me, I don’t give it importance, but I wouldn’t be completely opposed because then we would have access to a warmer climate and that would be good. I think it’s part of their agenda to tease Trudeau, but it’s amazing that there are so many Canadians who are so opposed to the US taking over. I think it’s funny,” he says.

Brian will vote in the Canadian elections for some of the independents, who he believes have a good program in favor of freedoms instead of the establishment parties, in which many have “a mistaken faith.” “I see Trump as something different, I don’t see him as a politician. People talk about tariffs, but all Trump asks for is to stop illegal immigration and drugs. It’s a pretty simple thing, why wouldn’t I as a Canadian support that? But the media doesn’t tell that,” he concludes.

“We came to see the inauguration, but since they canceled, we came here,” says Jennifer, 29, who arrived from Los Angeles, where she was born, although she is of Guatemalan origin. “There will be more inaugurations, but this is the last one for this president and we had to come.” He believes that one of the reasons for the increase in support for Trump was “to preserve the family, as the Bible says, with a dad and a mom.” “With the president who is in place right now, all that is disappearing and in the Hispanic community it is something we have always believed in. There is a house, a fundamental home and the way they want to change everything is not how we grew up. “We want to preserve what a family is.” “A man and a woman,” says her husband Anthony, also 29 years old, with a Guatemalan mother and a Salvadoran father, but also born in Los Angeles. “Many Hispanics or Latinos were able to see the news on social media for themselves and see what is true and what is not true. “A lot of people said Trump was bad, but people realized that wasn’t true.”
