It seems counterintuitive that Filipino-Americans would support migrant-averse Trump, but many do, even down to his promised mass deportation
US President Donald Trump isn’t the friendliest to migrants. One of his main campaign promises is a ruthless roundup of undocumented immigrants. Yet many Filipino-Americans voted for and continue to support him, despite the fact that a friend or relative or more may be the target of such a crackdown.
Ahead of Trump’s January 20 inauguration, Rappler correspondent Giselle Töngi talks to Fil-Am Trump supporters in California to get their perspective. She sits down with Rachel Gunther, a delegate for the Republican Party in California and a three-time Trump voter, and Nonie Belarmino, a small business owner who believes Trump will indeed “make America great again”. – Rappler.com
