特朗普對亞太裔社區的威脅

2024年10月16日一些亞裔美國人認為，特朗普不會對他們構成威脅——即使他當選，他們和他們的家人在美國也會安全。當他攻擊移民家庭時，他們認為他並不是在針對他們。
這不是事實。特朗普及其團隊不認為你是真正的美國人，他們也會針對你。
如果你認為你和你的孩子因為是歸化公民，或因為出生在這個國家就會安全，那麼你需要重新想一想。
特朗普的首席移民顧問斯蒂芬·米勒曾發送電子郵件讚揚1924年的《亞裔排斥法》，並呼籲重新審視1965年允許恢復亞洲移民的《移民國籍法》。
特朗普承諾將使用《外敵法》，這項法案上次被使用是在二戰期間用於將日裔美國人關進集中營。
在其任期結束時，特朗普在司法部成立了一個專門取消移民歸化身份的辦公室，他計劃重啟這個辦公室。
特朗普已宣布，他計劃通過行政命令結束出生公民權。
特朗普和他的高級顧問們不再掩飾他們是白人至上主義者，視亞裔美國人為入侵者。
最近的集會上，特朗普稱移民為“凶殘的暴力罪犯”和“內部敵人”，聲稱他們會“走進你的廚房割斷你的喉嚨”，因為這是“基因決定的”，並且稱“他們來自亞洲”。
特朗普對亞裔的言論仿照了希特勒對猶太人及移民的言辭，希特勒將他們稱為“害蟲”和“毒害我們國家血液”的人。
特朗普與白人至上主義者共進晚餐。
特朗普驕傲地稱讚白人民族主義者勞拉·盧默，後者曾在推特上說“如果卡馬拉當選，白宮會充滿咖哩味”。
看看他稱COVID為“中國病毒”和“功夫流感”後，亞裔美國人社區發生了什麼。
統計數據和新聞顯示，特朗普的言論之後，針對亞裔美國人的犯罪增加，包括針對亞裔美國人水療中心的可怕的亞特蘭大槍擊事件。
他的仇恨影響所有亞裔美國人：
例如，2017年，印度裔移民工程師斯里尼瓦斯·庫奇布霍特拉在堪薩斯的一家酒吧被殺，兇手喊道“滾出我們的國家”。
如果特朗普贏了，他也會來針對你和你的家人。
英文原文Trump Threat’s to the AAPI Community
• Some Asian-Americans assume that Trump is not a threat to them—that they and their families will be safe in the United States even if he wins. That when he attacks immigrant families, he is not talking about them.
o This is not the case. Trump and his people do not believe you are real Americans, and they will come after you too.
• If you think you and your children will be safe because you are naturalized citizens, or born in this country, think again.
o Top Trump immigration advisor Stephen Miller sent emails praising the 1924 Asian Exclusion Act, and calling for “revisiting” the 1965 INA that allowed Asian immigration to resume.
o Trump is promising to invoke the “Alien Enemies Act,” last used to intern Japanese Americans in camps during World War II.
o At the end of his term, Trump established an Office to Denaturalize Immigrants at the DOJ, which he plans to bring back.
o Trump has announced that he plans to end birthright citizenship by Executive Order. • Trump and his top advisors no longer try to hide that they are white supremacists, who see
Asian-Americans as invaders.
o At recent rallies, Trump has been calling immigrants “vicious violent criminals,” and
“the enemy within” who will “walk into your kitchen and cut your throat,” because
it’s “in their genes” and saying “they come in from Asia.”
o Trump’s rhetoric about Asians reflects Hitler’s rhetoric about Jews and immigrants
being “vermin” and “poisoning the blood of our country.”
o Trump dines with white supremacists.
o Trump proudly touts Laura Loomer as a supporter, a white nationalist who tweeted
saying “if Kamala wins, the White House will smell like curry.”
• Look at what happened to the Asian American community after he called COVID the
“Chinese Virus” and “Kung Flu.”
o Stats and news clips show increased crime against Asian-Americans after Trump’s
statements, including the horrific shooting in Atlanta targeting an Asian-American
spa.
• His hate affects all Asian Americans:
o For instance, in 2017 Indian immigrant engineer Srinivas Kuchibhotla was killed at a bar in Kansas, by a man who yelled “get out of our country.”
• If Trump wins, he is coming after you and your family too.
