I really do not understand this mentality of minorities and especially muslim minorities. The turnip enacted travel bans that were blatantly racist and anti-muslim in his first term. That is just one example of his racism. Why the fuck would someone think he was the better option?
Then you really don't understand that most immigrants (and especially Muslims) are actually hyper conservative, and their ideologies align quite nicely with dictators and fascists in general.
Religious doctrine, above all else, dictates that you must never question the authority of the faith. You think that people who dont think women should be allowed to drive (or even show their faces in public) would have a progressive attitude towards ANYTHING??
Most Latino countries are super Catholic, you think they have a problem with trump going after trans people? No, they cheer him on right up until the brown shirts come knocking on their own door, or, as in this case, they get detained at the border and subjected to illegal searches etc.
