"I'm here today because in my country, the hurricane we had, is kind of terrible and we got a president that's not helping the population and being in a bad situation. I'm coming from way, way far [away]," he explained, pointing behind him. "My family, I left them home. I know they're kind of rowdy because I don't have no internet so that they can check me and see how I'm doing."
"I'm here today because I'm coming to get to the U.S.," he said matter-of-factly.
According to the Honduran, the pandemic has had a detrimental impact on his home country. He said he used to work as a tour guide for those who visited his island. Since the start of the Wuhan coronavirus, tourists are nonexistent.
"What I want for my people, I just want patience and pass to the U.S. because they have a new president," he explained. "President Biden is going to help all of us. He's giving us 100 days to get to the U.S. and give us a paper so we can get a better life for our kids and our family."
