he's bringing in his own voters and people to give guns too. they aren't American and will have zero issues in shooting civilians. he will ramp up is assault on citizens.
Is that blanket fear of a particular group of immigrants I detect?
random South Africans that are suddenly wanting to go to USA, AND is being promoted by donald when he's currently attacking and deporting minorities without due process?
Yeh, but it's not an issue with South Africans... it's an issue with donald supporting it... if he supports it, chances are it's bad
don't misunderstand me here.. I have zero issues with immigration or people from vArious cultures. it's literally the best way hands down, to process the human race to be better globally... but when a tyrannical president, who is known for nonstop corruption, and waging war against citizens promotes the very thing he is actively fighting... then why would I not give it a blanket bad?
if donald was not involved, I'd have no issue with it.
My guy, two of the literal evilest people on the planet are South African (Elon Musk and Peter Thiel).
Edit: sorry, I guess Thiel only briefly lived there as a child. He describes it as formative experience.
