Trump’s America: Exploring the US anti-immigrant fervor
“And yet, for the first time in three decades, voters in Androscoggin County chose a Republican for president, endorsing Trump’s nativist zeal against the very sort of immigrants who share their streets and their schools. Some talk openly about their indignation, built on the belief that the immigrants take more than they give. Others sigh and hesitate, afraid to seem racist or indifferent to the pain and poverty of others. Many echoed one native Mainer: America is struggling, and needs to take care of its own before it takes care of anyone else.”
