People believe themselves to be part of the in-circle as “one of the good ones”. My father is a Trump-supporting anti-immigrant immigrant. But when he says “immigrant”, he really means Hispanics and blacks, not Asians like himself.

I even know an Afghan guy who loves Trump. He grew up under the Mujahideen and then the Taliban, so he hates Islam. When Trump says Muslim countries are bad, this guy 100% agrees. He thinks he and Trump are on the same side, because he’s no longer Muslim. Trump, or course, would have him arrested and deported on sight for being brown.
