Donald Trump, at his rally in New Jersey, used an extended riff about the 1991 film “The Silence of the Lambs” to demonize migrants at the border.

    I’m an immigrant and US citizen that’s lived here for 28 years. These people (republicans) have done nothing but demonize people like me for as long as I can remember, and it’s getting more and more hateful every year. We are just people who want to live peacefully and give back through our hard work. We came here thinking that this was a multi-cultural and freedom-loving nation. Instead we are constantly reminded of the hateful hypocrisy in many Americans whose family immigrated here not long before us.

      The saddest part is that many immigrants who received their citizenship are the most hateful towards migrants and new immigrants.
