"Chinese folks" is literally all you are capable of seeing. (So unbelievably blind)

You can't even imagine the mere possibility existing that a dozen "Chinese folks" American citizens could have voted for Trump.

Sure I can, but nothing from the sign says they're American citizens. The background sign is in Chinese and being a US citizen doesn't negate them from being Chinese.

Chinese: a native or descendant of a native of China.

Nice try though.

If this is how Trump supporters from Chine act in public then we need more of them. Too bad their preferred candidate wants to minimize immigration. Oh the irony.

It's an unbridgeable divide.

Hmmm... yes. What's to be done? It's a mystery.

Chinatown.

The motivations behind this group align with many of the same grievances of other Trump voters.

Wang said many Chinese Americans are opposed to granting transgender people access to the bathrooms that match their gender, and a high amount are also opposed to affirmative action based on skin color — both views, he said, that Chinese Americans associate with Republicans. In addition, “Trump wants to build a wall. I mean, we Chinese people built the Great Wall, and we kept the Mongols out for thousands of years.”
