What's under all of it

The fear - the knowledge - that if brown people immigrate into the US and achieve citizenship and/or birth children while in the US; the majority of those brown people will not register as Republicans. They will vote to raise taxes on the rich, raise worker wages, increase funding for healthcare, education, worker rights, the social safety net.

No matter what, logic says that brown and black people cannot be held down and back forever.

Consider this

population of the US is 320M
population of China is 1.37B
population of India 1.32B

He could give a shit about respect.
He knows he's a pig and he likes it.
He wants you to cower before him.
He wants to be obeyed.
