I resisted associating with a party for a long time, but Trump changed that. I was legitimately afraid for my family, who were at the time green card holders from a Muslim-majority country.
Trump tried to cancel green cards, along with other visas, without any warning a week after his inauguration. People who had lived, worked, paid taxes in the United States for years and followed every legal process were nonetheless stranded away from their homes and families.
That was really the point of no return. Trump supporters are the enemy; no reconciliation is possible.
- tekknik 6y agoThey are the enemy because they are trying to protect jobs at home? Which country do you come from? How difficult is it for a US citizen to become a full citizen? Is it as easy as what you’re asking for here? Do you think that by having a green card you are taking a job from someone here? I’m sorry but the idea that a political opponent is an “enemy” is just childish. If your country is trying to kill you then apply for political asylum, otherwise realize a great majority of people here think you have side channeled your way into this country.
- sagarm 6y agoI am and was a US citizen. All US citizens are full citizens; we don't have second class citizens here. There is a legitimate way to debate immigration policy. It's the intentional infliction of cruelty and dehumanization that makes this situation irreconcilable, not any desire to change policy.
