I think you drank the Kool Aid. This might sober you up. I am looking at the Pew Research poll you posted [1] and Republicans seem to lag on polls where they ask about the value of racial, ethnic, and language diversity.
You really have to ignore a lot of Trump’s rhetoric about Muslims (Bangladesh is 90% Muslim), Mexicans, etc. Closing your eyes to the tiki torch carrying Neo Nazis, the racist congressmen, the Jan 6th confederates, the list goes on and on.
Perhaps you did not hear when Reagan called black people monkeys (https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2019/07/ronald-reagans-racist-conversation-richard-nixon/595102/ https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2019/07/ronald-rea...) or when Trump called Haiti, etc Sh*t hole countries (https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/white-house/trump-referred-haiti-african-countries-shithole-nations-n836946 https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/white-house/trump-referred-...)
They don’t see race at all.
I am not sure in what universe that Pew poll looks positive for Republicans. Republicans don’t need to talk about race much according to the poll because they don’t live in diverse communities.
I get that you don’t like affirmative action. It has been a great wedge issue to factionalize minorities against Blacks in particular. The Supreme Court will ban it in due time. You probably did not know that the Civil Rights Act (passed after decades of blood, sweat, and tears of Blacks to protect people like you) and Immigration Act 1965 (repealing anti Asian ban) of that allowed your grandad to immigrate here was introduced and signed into law by Democrats. A lot of pain went into getting you here. You should read about it. (Before they ban those books too)
