    It’s like people that come from poor backgrounds that vote to make it harder for people to level up…I’m assuming it’s a similar line of thinking.

      Yes exactly this. I know a few people who are 2nd or 3rd generation immigrant and they don’t give a shit about other immigrants at all. All voted for Trump and all day that they will never be deported because they voted for Donny. And a few of them have said they will be more then happy to help ice deport other immigrants even if it’s there neighbor.
