Jay Kansara responded that the primary approach wherein Trump has united minorities.
New York:
A South-Asian assist group for Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden has slammed President Donald Trump for tearing aside communities and failing to denounce white supremacy whereas a robust Indian-American supporter of Trump stated he has united minority communities, views that highlighted a conflict between Indian-Americans over insurance policies of the 2 leaders.
Jay Kansara, former director of Government Relations on the Hindu American Foundation and a Trump supporter stated that Trump has completed very nicely with Hispanic voters despite the fact that the Democrats are nonetheless attempting to assert victory in states akin to Michigan and Wisconsin.
He stated this is a sign that the Democrats have “simply not accepted the reality that Trump …actually united minority communities – African Americans, Hispanic Americans, Asian Americans.”
Jay Kansara was a part of a dialogue throughout a digital post-election political evaluation hosted by main nonprofit Indian neighborhood organisation “Indiaspora”.
Responding strongly to Jay Kansara’s assertion, National Director of South Asians for Biden Neha Dewan said, “I believe we may be dwelling in numerous nations” when Jay Kansara says that Trump really united the minority communities.
“Because I believe that in all probability possibly the primary that I’ve heard. Our neighborhood actually has been torn aside with the Muslim ban, the spike in hate crimes in our communities. So I’m undecided the place the unity a part of that is available in. I will need to have been sleeping during the last 4 years,” Neha Dewan said.
She added that she “can’t actually consider something” that Trump has done for “our neighborhood.”
“That’s the half that we have actually been listening to from our neighborhood. Our neighborhood has been affected by COVID-19,” whether it’s people on the frontline or small businesses that have suffered as a result of it.
“And that is simply not it. Immigrants who’re right here legally and need to have a shot at life and unexpectedly (Trump is) suspending H-1B purposes.”
Jay Kansara, holding up a placard that read ”Indian Voices For Trump”, said he had voted for President Barack Obama twice but could not vote for Hillary Clinton because “I knew the injury that she had inflicted on the world as Secretary of State, and I knew the injury that Biden had completed as Vice President.”
He asserted that Trump has actually had the back of minority communities such as Asian-Americans and added that the President stands for equity in education and equal opportunity.
Neha Dewan shot back saying “speaking about fairness in training, I’m at a loss as to what that even means from this administration as a result of all we have seen is simply white supremacy. When you have got the president of a rustic who doesn’t even denounce white supremacy, I”m not even certain the place the minority piece in that is available in”.
She also added that with Trump it has been, “If I win, it is as a result of I gained. If I lose, it is as a result of they’ve cheated”.
Now that it appears like Trump is dropping, she stated “it will possibly’t probably be as a result of the individuals haven’t spoken for me, it is as a result of they’ve cheated and that is what we’re seeing. Lawsuit after lawsuit, making stuff up. But that is par for the course, that is to be anticipated. This is just not one thing new. I do not assume it is a shock for anyone”.
She, however, noted that it is surprising to see members of the Indian-American and South Asian communities not seeing and acknowledging the carnage that has been inflicted on them by the Trump administration.
They “simply blindly type of drink the Kool-Aid and say ‘nicely this individual has been superb for our neighborhood and unity”. It simply blows my thoughts.”
Jay Kansara responded that the number one way in which Trump has united minorities, particularly first-generation immigrants, is “in opposition to this notion that America will turn out to be a socialist nation. And sadly, the Democratic Party is not the celebration of JFK (John F Kennedy) who was completely probably the most ardent enemy of communism throughout his time in addition to an ideal good friend to India.”
“Most immigrants consider that they don’t need to stand in breadlines that Nancy Pelosi can hand them out bread. They don’t need to sit at house whereas their companies have been shut down for these arduous lockdowns whereas Nancy Pelosi once more will get to go to the salon,” he said.
Jay Kansara added that the “Democratic dictatorship” needs to be countered and the Republican party has a very strong chance of countering it in 2022.
He also added that Kamala Harris, Biden’s running mate, could lose her seat when she goes for her Senate re-election if there’s a strong Republican candidate against her.
As Biden inches closer to securing the Electoral College votes, Neha Dewan said there is a sense of hope in the campaign.
“It’s not over till it is over however for the primary time in so lengthy we’ve hope.”
She said South Asians for Biden was formed in December 2019 and the group is also celebrating the inroads that we’ve made with our community with regards to organising, celebrating our differences, joining hands, speaking to people who have never voted before and who’ve taken an interest.
“Just from a grassroots perspective, we really feel like we’ve gained with our neighborhood and naturally there’s much more to be completed. This is a motion that I consider has began and there is a variety of hope for certain,” she stated.
