# My Mom (Mormon) likes Trump.  She doesn't like illegal immigrants...

*July 11, 2023 — Comment Amanda Ruth's post*

My Mom (Mormon) likes Trump.  She doesn't like illegal immigrants (she thinks many of them are criminals and parasites), and she doesn't want any more of them in the US.  She likes that one of Trump's signature planks is building a border wall, and spending money to enforce immigration restrictions. She also thinks he'll push back against taxes and government spending. I think she'd agree with Stephen Friedman's analysis as well. My Dad doesn't care for Trump, but preferred Trump to Clinton for some of the same reasons as my Mom.
