It is… "fascinating" (for lack of a better word) how much of #DonTheCon's policies AND popular support is drawn from #racism.
Think of all the #DayOne promises he made & failed to achieve: Bring prices down, end the war in #Ukraine, retrieve the hostages in #Gaza… etc & so on.
"Round up gang members & terrorists and #deport them" became: going after the low-hanging fruit of UNAdjudicated migrants already in jail & foreign-born protesters on college campuses.
AND THEY DON'T CARE.
