This is the same kind of language employed by far right assholes everywhere.
"If you don't like it, go back to $countryTheyAssumeYouCameFrom", yup. Just a further blurring of the lines between blue and red. By 2032, it'll just be varying shades of purple, and most of them will be angled toward the fuchsia end.
It wasn't a "zinger", I was drawing an equivalence between this lady's "go back to China" rhetoric and the language of the far right where anyone who doesn't toe the line is accused of being a foreign agent.
