Comments by "iloveyouamberappel" (@iloveyouamberappel) on "Thousands of Haitians Are Trapped at the U.S.-Mexico Border" video.
Trapped = prevent (someone) from escaping from a place. No one is preventing them from leaving Mexico. It is a choice. "I prefer to say and work in the meantime instead of letting them send me back to Haiti." They are giving them flights back to Haiti. By definition, they are not trapped.

@juliancalero8012 No one is preventing them from leaving. "trapped" is the wrong word to use. I understand that they are leaving Haiti but it's a choice/preference and they have a free flight back.

@juliancalero8012 Correct. "Trapped" is not the best word to use in that situation either. At least in your abuse scenario someone is actually preventing them from leaving. In the instance of the Haitians, it's a situation. It clearly doesn't meet the definition. Cornered is one example of a better word to use.

@ChosenOne6666 Where? is there a president Trump in a country outside of the USA that I don't know about? You can say the election was rigged or blah blah blah but legally speaking Joe Biden is the president.

Trump is not in charge. Biden doesn't want them.
