They are "conservatives" because they think they are better than other people.
No joke, there is an immigrant in my state running the the GOP primary on the platform that immigration is broken and we need to fix the border.
When you talk to these people, it literally is about how it's okay because they are the good race. It's those at the border that are ruining America.
He talks about how his parents came here legally and how legal immigration is okay.
My brother in Christ, do you not realize that the GOP is trying to make it illegal for any immigration to occur? You're pulling the ladder after you, oh I'm sorry, your parents climbed on the ship. Now you're telling everyone below that they are dirty and lazy for not making it up without a ladder.
That candidate is caught up in the very specific idea of "legal" and "documented alien" for methods of immigration without realizing that the racism inherent in the system will make it virtually impossible for anyone to meet legal qualifications for entry. Often the racism is hidden in the unwritten parts like the fees required to submit paperwork and the pressure for legal representation - all things that cost money and is designed to keep our the poors.
That candidate has no idea what nuance means and will run things like a tyrant, confused by a lack of clear morality.
I highly suspect that he very much knows the nuances of the system and doing what every Republican does: using racism to get elected to gain power and influence.
He doesn't care if people get hurt so long as it's the right people.
