    Trumpy Latinos I heard from say they “develop thick skins” and that they “recognise the type of things he says about us as just words”. It’s true that despite decades of threats from the right, established undocumented immigrants have never yet been universally rounded up and deported so we’ll see if they’re right. Not a gamble I would have taken, but I didn’t see any good side to Trump’s platform.

      Self delusions and buying into white supremacist rhetoric that they’re “one of the good ones.” Brainwashing for conservatives almost invariably begins in a church, as a child.
