Darryl CooperGUEST
I blocked those two literally years ago and I barely see any of the responses to them even.
Darryl CooperGUEST
But, you know, you wish that their side of this argument was represented by more serious people because it is a serious discussion that Americans need to have and have had like for many, many, many years, long before Hartzell.
Darryl CooperGUEST
It's something that we've had to kind of figure out for ourselves.
Darryl CooperGUEST
And the idea that the founding fathers would have been indifferent to whether America was a majority Muslim non-white country or not, as long as people believed in the Constitution or whatever,

Darryl CooperGUEST
And granted, like the exclusion of the African-American 10 percent of the population is that was an issue we had to deal with, obviously.
Darryl CooperGUEST
But in terms of the great majority of the population, you had this sense of like people were no longer Irish immigrants or Italian immigrants or Jewish immigrants or whatever it was.
Darryl CooperGUEST
Like people had really come very far toward coming together as just Americans, as American people.
Darryl CooperGUEST
And it was shutting down immigration and taking a breather and giving the people who were here an opportunity to just get used to living with one another.
speaker_3NARRATOR
Okay.
Milan VaishnavHOST
And I think I have the data here, which says the Pew report finds that 45% of Americans view India favorably.
Jacob PoushterGUEST
Mm-hmm.
Milan VaishnavHOST
50% view it unfavorably.
Jacob PoushterGUEST
it's an interesting question because there's two things going on.
Jacob PoushterGUEST
One, as I said earlier, it does seem to kind of be in a middling range, you know, about half and half.
Jacob PoushterGUEST
It's been that way for a couple years since we've used our Americans Trends panel, which is the way that we do surveys in the U.S. It's a probability-based panel.
Jacob PoushterGUEST
Before that, we had some phone surveys in the U.S. where favorability of India was comparatively higher than it is now, more in the 50s to lower 60s as it is like mid-40s to 50 now.
Stephanie SladeGUEST
Mostly, yeah.
Jonah GoldbergHOST
But you know, right now I'm sure you've seen, because you make the same moral error I do and spend too much time on social media, this grand coalition of jabronis and weirdos and bigots who are freaked out by Indian Americans celebrating at a football game, right? I mean, like, the new right crowd has a whole bunch of racism to it.
Jonah GoldbergHOST
Not everybody.
Jonah GoldbergHOST
I agree with you that you need an umbrella term because there are a lot of different, there are a lot of rooms in the mansion of the new right as well.
John HodgmanHOST
I mean,
Jesse ThornHOST
Hari and also another Indian American, Anil Dash, who's a pal of mine, have both discussed with me that in New York City, they're both New Yorkers.
Jesse ThornHOST
In New York City, there are many Indian grocery stores that where you put in an advance order for mangoes.
Jesse ThornHOST
Right.
Eric EricksonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Beau French in Texas attacked a bunch of kids who turn out they're all American citizens.
Eric EricksonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
They're just Indian Americans.
Eric EricksonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
They're Indian ethnicity.
Eric EricksonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
They're American citizens.
Kamala HarrisSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
And that has never deterred us.
Larry O'ConnorHOST
Now, when she says we are a creative people, is she talking about Indian Americans? Or is she talking about Jamaican Americans? Or is she talking about women? Or is she talking about Californians? I'm confused.
Larry O'ConnorHOST
Number one.
Larry O'ConnorHOST
Number two, purging voter rolls is not illegal as long as the people being purged from voter rolls shouldn't be on the voter rolls.

Larry O'ConnorHOST
It was all about Hamas in Israel.
Larry O'ConnorHOST
And then when Kamala Harris became the nominee.
Larry O'ConnorHOST
That motivation of the uncommitted voters, mostly Arab Americans that you were rallying, they didn't really turn the corner and support Kamala Harris because the policy didn't change.
Larry O'ConnorHOST
So that's what I'm specifically asking about.
Neal McCreadyHOST
And he tweets live body cams, exposed criminals, social media, live body cams, exposed criminals.
Neal McCreadyHOST
Social media is exposing how many Americans have been displaced by foreigners.
Neal McCreadyHOST
It's everywhere and far worse than any of us could imagine.
Neal McCreadyHOST
The response is very predictably right away.
Josh HendricksonHOST
There was a book written by who was then a moderate Democrat, a guy named Sam Huntington, wrote a book called Who Are We? about the United States.
Josh HendricksonHOST
And it was all about immigration issues.
Josh HendricksonHOST
And how immigration affects the way that Americans see themselves and, you know, what that means for the future.
Josh HendricksonHOST
And one of the main points that Huntington makes in this is that assimilation is much more likely when you have small groups that are brought into larger groups.
April BaerHOST
So what exactly are younger voters here focused on in 2026? And what do they want from the people asking for their vote? Stateside's team of summer interns went to find out.
April BaerHOST
We're bringing you their stories through November in our project, What the Vote? Today, intern Isabella Jacob brings us a conversation with a young Indian American student who sees the GOP as this country's best shot at preserving the American dream.
Krish MathraniGUEST
Being a young conservative in a very liberal city in a very liberal high school was obviously a struggle, but to me it just pushed me and pushed me more to stand for what I believe in because if you don't stand for anything, you fall for everything.
Krish MathraniGUEST
It was very encouraging to me that a lot of students would come to me and say, we agree with you, but we're just scared to speak out because I feel like I'm giving them a voice and giving them a say.
Isabella JacobCORRESPONDENT
there's a pretty sizable, large South Asian population in Troy and surrounding cities, do you see a swing towards the right in these communities?
Krish MathraniGUEST
I'd say absolutely.
Krish MathraniGUEST
I mean, the frontrunner for state rep in the city of Troy is an Indian American who endorsed President Trump last cycle.
Krish MathraniGUEST
We've seen over 200 Michigan Indian American Democrats endorse President Trump in 2024.
Jack AthertonGUEST
I could go on about his business background, his marriage and family, but Brian, can we celebrate something else Vivek Ramaswamy is rightly proud of? Please.
Jack AthertonGUEST
Being an Indian American.
Jack AthertonGUEST
The Vague may be a trailblazer in local politics, but for a long time now, Indians have been many of our most brilliant and productive fellow citizens.
Jack AthertonGUEST
Five and a half million Indians, and counting, are now the second biggest group of Asian Americans, increasing by 125% just since 2000.
Julie HallGUEST
In fact, there was a lot of shame, a lot of stigma in, you know, going to therapy.
Julie HallGUEST
I think culturally for me, I grew up Indian American.
Julie HallGUEST
And so, again, just some like resistance based on... you know, narratives that came from...
Julie HallGUEST
Yeah, I think the culture
