Because she's still a bourgeois Venezuelan ex-pat who wants the US to rescue her country from the nasty socialists. Back home, she's one of the whites but she's about to learn the hard way: Caracas white != Connecticut white.

This happens so much in Rio de la Plata "Somos blancos y europeos , somos italianos" which basically means "We're white and european, we're italian" ... but the thing they're actually saying is "I'm not native or black, fuck those people, I'm better than them".

When my in laws visited texas to see my brother in law though... in some rural parts, the advice was not to speak spanish.

As an Italian, I would love all the people who think Italians are white to watch "Sacco e Vanzetti".

"I don't want to make this political"

What does that even mean in this context?

Anything against Trump is seen as political to these people. She knows she is going against the narrative and knows people are going to give her shit for it.

It's politics. By definition, it's political, not "seen as political"

If only there was an abundance of evidence that Don fucks over people when they’re no longer useful to him. This poor woman. Where did I put my tiny violin?
