I followed DUer LeftStreet's advice from my earlier thread about reuniting with my wife
This thread was where LeftStreet suggested this.
I have never been this desperate in my life. China changed its rules and made my $890 layover in Taipei flight invalid for the green QR code upon arrival. They now require all flights to be direct flights into China.
The airlines are grossly inflating my flight to reunite to my wife. It's now between $5000 - $9000. My school is covering $2500 of it. I have another $1500.
It's been two years since I've seen my wife. We've delayed children. We've been rejected for her green card twice.
LeftStreet told me to setup a gofundme and I have never been this desperate in my life.
Could DU left me like you would have if my wife got her green card and I continued my run for the Arizona Legislature?

Thank you
DUmmies realize they’re being scammed. LOL
I’m on my phone so that’s all I’m bringing over.

Welcome to Xi's Zero Covid policy. From Jilin and Chanchun in the northeast to Shenzhen in the southeast to Xining in west-central China, large districts and whole cities with millions of people are being shut down when cases are found. While the shut-downs seem to be less draconian than those two years ago, many businesses are closed, no one may leave or enter a shut down city for two weeks, and every resident (or visitor) must be tested for Covid every two days. If a new case is found, that two-week time period is reset.
Passengers in a direct flight could bring in Covid, obviously, but cutting out in between stops limits the number of places those passengers might be exposed to Covid. A stopover in SoKo, Japan, Taipei (actually Taoyuan), etc. would be one more place an incoming passenger might accidentally be exposed.
As for the high cost of airline tickets, does this DUmmie think jet fuel costs would remain low while gasoline prices more than doubled over the past 16 months? Brandon did that!

According to his gfm he has $1250 (since it is DUmmies that means maybe $500) towards that sweet, sweet Chinese poontang.
If he did a modicum of research he would have found that almost ALL International airports now do an INSTANT COVID Antigen test for about $20. If he gives himself a reasonable layover of 4 or 5 hours whuch he would need anyway there is PLENTY of time to get the test done on the last leg.
Good th8ng DUmmies are also welchers.

I don't think he's COVID he's worried about getting tested for. 99% of all DUmmies are inveterate dopers, and China will lock your ass up for that.

Hmm, the DUmbass is running for a seat in the Arizona legislature? I wonder if his opponent(s) in that race would like to know about his posts on DU? You know opposition research and all.

To all of DU: I am sorry I asked for help trying to reunite with my wife
As I write this, I literally have tears streaming down my face.
For all who have, words cannot express adequately how grateful I am. I've lived a two year nightmare and a lot of you have really come to bat for me. I wish there is something I can do to repay your kindness and a sincere, heartfelt thank and gratitude seems woefully inadequate.
But all this morning, I have been defending myself against people who think I am using this for ulterior motives. I have none. If the policies in China didn't change, I would have done this all myself.
I know I will never change anyone's mind who are convinced that I am not being honest.
1: Yes, I am going to a film festival in April. I paid for it out of my paycheck. I was under orders to keep it as cheap as possible so I can bring money from my salary back to China with me as I will not get paid there until September. Which I did by checking with her every single place I could stay.
2: 40% of my net pay goes to my wife in China every month, so I am literally living hand to mouth. As a teacher, I get $1537 every two weeks. Then I have bills, food, and gas. I haven't been out except to go to Tucson for business in months and the closest thing I get to "eating out" is a subway, Eegee's, or In and Out burger as I am driving either to or from Tucson.
3: I have limited medical care for fear that medical bills would hurt me.
4: I have gone nowhere since last June with was to Puerto Penasco in Mexico for a long weekend.
5: I am literally supporting myself, my wife, and her family on my paycheck right now. I asked no one to help me and I wouldn't accept it if they did.
I'm sorry people think I'm a fraud. I'm sorry for asking for help. It is my business and as such, it is my responsibility. But last night, when I video chatted with my wife, she smiled for the first time in a long time knowing I was coming home and we can finally start our family. She knows that men in my family don't normally live passed 65 and I am 43.
I hadn't seen my wife smile like that for a very long time. The last time I saw my wife face to face, she was crying and refusing to let me go at Pudong Airport. I still remember her video chatting me on the flight last year in Detroit, tears streaming down her face asking why they were doing this to her and that she was afraid to move because "they are watching me," then putting her phone camera over her should to see two male CBP officers glaring at her with their arms crossed. She quickly disconnected and didn't speak to me again until she was in Shanghai.
If people want to see the reason I did this, swallowed my pride, and asked for help, here it is:
Those are our official Chinese red marriage books. The ugly bald troll is me, the pretty Chinese woman with the long hair is my wife, Wei Huan 魏欢. That's why I set up a GFM. I had no where else to turn.
And now, I feel lower than lower for doing that after this morning. I need to take time away from DU. For all of those who helped me, words cannot express my undying love and gratitude for all of you. I wish I could do or say more.
So all of you know, I have setup an account at my Credit Union for all the GFM and other funds. It won't even go into my bank account and I gave my mother the account information and the card that came with it.
I'm sorry I put everything here through this. I really do feel like I am horrible person. I typed all of this with tears in my eyes.
There are pictures included in his post. He's kind of a toad, and his wife is kind of cute. He's supposedly supporting her AND her family on a teacher's salary. Is the scammer getting scammed????

How many times do you need to tell people you have tears in your eyes? LOL

Ummmm, why were immigration people escorting/watching her as she was leaving the US? Sounds to me like she got deported. Did she overstay her visa and get caught?
I'm afraid I'm lacking sympathy for his situation, just taking it at face value. How bleeping hard is it for Americans to realize that different countries have different political systems and laws? His wife is a Chinese citizen, living in China. She is subject to China's laws. If he wants to visit her in China, he has to do it within China's applicable laws. If he wants her to visit him, she has to comply with applicable US laws; if he wants her to be given a Green Card as his spouse, they have to comply with applicable US laws ... and if she was deported ... what was that saying in LOTR ... "Short cuts make for long delays." At best, I think he and/or she jumped into this clue-free and tried to cut corners and take short cuts.
And as others have suggested, she may be playing him, milking him for $$.

I have to agree with you on all of this. The other thing to consider in all of this is that if he was so dead-set on taking a Chinese bride, he should have considered the potentially devastating expense that comes with it. Whether he's on the level is beside the point, as far as I'm concerned. There are hundreds of nice girls in South Tucson he could have had who'd cost him a lot less and who could probably cook a lot better. They certainly wouldn't mind his uncanny resemblance to a human thumb.
