    Technically only his mother was an immigrant, born in Scotland. His father was born in the US.

      Both trumps grandparents were german immigrants

      Father was german heritage, blood, ancestry. Just born in USA. Didn’t think american’s counted that these days

      German Grandfather + German Grandmother -> Father (Fred) born in the US. Full “german blood”.

      mother was scottish heritage, blood, ancestry. Born in scotland. Literally not american

      Scottish Grandfather + Scottish Grandmother -> Mother (Mary) born in Scotland. Full “Scottish blood”.

      Trump is a mix of german and scottish heritage. Literally zero american heritage except his dad happened to be born in the USA.

      But I thought republicans hated immigrants? 🤔
