• MEDIA: The year of newly minted Indian American GOP stars

    From John D Groenveld@21:1/5 to All on Tue Dec 31 12:24:51 2024
    Brian Roberts' guest National Broadcasting Corporation blogger, Sakshi Venkatraman on whether Susie Wiles sees signs in her (and Bill Stepien
    before her (and Brad Parscale before him)) MAGA marketing research
    that Donald Trump and JD Vance left ballots on the table by failing to
    enlist Narendra Modi as their MAGA campaign surrogate for the National Question: <URL:https://www.nbcnews.com/news/asian-america/indian-americans-most-represented-minority-trump-2024-administration-rcna183503>
    | Asian Americans more broadly shifted right by 5 points, compared to
    | 3.2 points for the general population.

    | "Trump had higher support among 18- to 34-year-old Indian Americans,
    | and especially among Indian American men," Ramakrishnan said. "It's
    | not just the native-born younger men like Ramaswamy and Kash Patel.
    | It includes foreign-born younger men who are likely recently
    | naturalized. You probably have a fair number of people working in
    | tech."
    |
    | Some find this mutual affinity contradictory to the story that
    | brought them to the U.S. Trump campaigned on a heavily anti-
    | immigrant platform, with allies like Ramaswamy promising to slash
    | the H-1B visa program and even revoke birthright citizenship.

    Does Wiles believe Vance has a path to WhiteHouse.GOV by serving as
    Trump's Deputy Chief Salescritter for importing the 8.1+B globe's
    top two quintiles for the Cheap Labor Lobby?

    "There's a bizarre genre of magical thinking among older liberals
    that the country will be brought closer together as its people
    become more different. The idea is so stupid on its face that I can
    only assume they've had most of their higher thought replaced by half-remembered TV." - Mystery Grove Publishing Co. <URL:https://twitter.com/MysteryGrove/status/1228790599928684544>
