I am a 美华 living overseas for a long time. I can no longer relate to many fellow 美华. I don't know what happened since I left 17 years ago. Their support of Trump is pretty much against their own identity, their own future and their own safety. Even what 美华 cared about the most - their wealth and their decedents are at risk in this increasingly racist Sinophobia society. Trump's appeals to many 美华 lie with their worst instincts - they don't like other minorities; they don't want to pay tax although the US has one of the lowest tax rate in OECD countries; they believe all their kids should get into Ivies just by performing well in SATs. But,but, they lose sight that, under Trump, the US is morphing into a society with a total disregard of facts, a bloated sense of entitlement and no sense of empathy. The US has become a danger to the world's progress, morality, and even peace by creating a self-fulfilling prophecy of a war with China. Hitting home, just think about this: yes, your kids may now have a better chance to get into the best colleges, but they may still end up Alx Wong - a self-hating, dual-ivy Chinese working under suspicion and dumped for no course. I am not partisan and I don't like many of Biden's policies, but trump is 200% more harmful and we shall fight him, instead of enabling him.
