    The crazy thing is that back then was also the time of peak immigration at Ellis Island etc. Even if you try to give MAGAs the benefit of the doubt that they aren’t trying to be evil, their ideology is just flat-out incoherent!

      Those were European migrants. Don’t even bother trying to explain that they weren’t considered “white” back then, it’s not going to work.
