Strangest thing to me is that I know quite a few Asians that immigrated here that are super Trumpers. I just can’t even grasp how.
Also, interestingly enough, I also happen to work in a very right leaning field, and the majority of the republicans here have been very quiet since the Jan 6 incident. There was only one who was pretty outspoken about it, and he quit recently.
That’s a really fair point.
My wife is Asian and I definitely understand the conservative side of many Asian cultures, also the immigration policies as I lived in Asia for almost a decade.
Sometimes it can be hard to see the different viewpoints when you aren’t directly affected. For one reason obviouly, not being Asian myself (mixed but I’m basically white), and two, even having many Asian friends but never actually really discussing politics with them.
I really appreciate the time you took to give some external viewpoints to things.
