Viet Thanh Nguyen

I mean, during the previous Trump administration, when children were being separated from their parents and put into cages, there were Vietnamese Americans saying Trump is doing the right thing.

Those are the bad refugees.

We were the good refugees.

I grew up in a Vietnamese refugee community of the 1970s and 1980s.

And let me tell you something.

There were a lot of bad Vietnamese refugees doing terrible things, okay?

We've forgotten all about that because there's always a new scary other demon monster to distract us.

And that now is brown people, Muslim people, and so on.

You know, Marco Rubio.

descendant of immigrants or refugees, depending on how you interpret his history, shows no remorse for what is going on.

He went to San Salvador on the same day I went to San Salvador.

He was there to sign the deportation agreement with President Bukele of El Salvador.

And that led to hundreds of people being deported as criminals.

And all those people have now been released and sent back to Venezuela.

Very few of them

were actually criminals.

Divide and conquer.

Pretty simple strategy.

And it works every time.

You said Haitians.
