Indian-origin comedian Zarna Garg says Indians love Trump because ‘all politicians are crooked back home’

Indian-origin comedian Zarna Garg says Indians love Trump because 'all politicians are crooked back home'

Indian-origin comedian Zarna Garg claimed the Indian-American community sees President Donald Trump positively as they don’t see Trump’s felony charges as disqualifying, as “all our politicians are crooked back home’. “First of all, our politicians are crooked back home, so that just seems to be a job requirement. So I mean, they’re like, of course, he’s a criminal, they all are. Nobody who’s not a criminal wants to do this job,” Garg said, explaining that Indians in the US do not have a problem with Trump on issues that a lot of people in America have. As Garg spoke with Joanna Coles on The Daily Beast podcast, the Indian-American comedian and author also discussed the immigration issue and added that Indian people are mostly legal immigrants in America. “Of course, he (Trump) has cheated on his wife; they all do. We don’t even consider any of those issues,” Garg said. “Indian people, by and large, are legal immigrants in America, which means it was years of waiting, years of applying paperwork,” Garg said, adding Indians are not on board with the illegal immigration issue. “They did not understand what was happening during the Biden administration. We could not understand why they were not taking this seriously, because ask any Indian person — we have relatives who have been waiting 15 years in line because that’s the right thing to do, and then it felt like anybody who was breaking the law was getting rewarded. ”The comedian then went on to say that she did not support how Donald Trump had been removing people from teh country but agreed that a lot of the problems that Trump started highlighting are the real problems. As Garg’s video went viral, social media users said she might be representing a tiny minority as Indians generally vote for the Democrats. “Roughly 250,000 Indians attempted to illegally cross the borders during Biden‘s presidency,” one wrote, refuting Zarna Garg’s claim that Indians generally come to the US following rules.
