We have legitimate grievances against them and against Trump. Their hatred for us has been almost entirely manufactured for them by unscrupulous people. But that doesn’t diminish the corrosiveness of their hatred.

All I can say is if the power dynamic was with us right now, instead of with them, I would not support legislation specifically designed to hurt people like this guy. It’s how I know we are better than they are.
