She does know what she is doing. She seems to be pushing a narrative I’ve heard from white nationalists that only white people are REALLY eligible to be US citizens. By virtue of race or ethnicity, one is automatically “illegal” because they are not white. She is lumping us all together because she doesn’t want us to be citizens too. She believes her feelings of racism and hate justify her erroneous argument.
You have once again used facts and history to make a valid argument. Willful ignorance is certainly part of it, but I have to wonder why racists still try to hide behind false facts and data. Why not just come out and say, "I hate these people."? It seems to be an acceptable statement in the Republican party these days.

Indeed it does. Laura Loomer said everything but that.
Yep. They'll keep repeating until people believe it. Sadly, many already do despite it being illogical.
