You need to realize how insanely defensive you're being. Why? For what?
Think about what you're arguing for for a second: America doesn't want AI, only Trump's administration does. Is this not all of politics?
"America doesn't want free health care, only some of its democrats do."
"America doesn't want ranked choice voting, lots of people in Wyoming hate ranking things. And math."
"America doesn't want gay marriage, there are still lots of people really upset about that supreme court ruling."
You're drawing a scenario in which "America" can't actually "want" anything because no one ever agrees on who America is.
I'm being competely serious: you need to unwrap your ego from all this. This isn't about you. ICE raids aren't your—you specifically—your fault. No one is saying it is.
America is a really, really big machine, and sometimes it does things I don't like. Sometimes it does things I do. You know what I mean?
