Mitch McConnell reveled in the SCOTUS decision today to uphold Trump's ban, yet his own wife was an immigrant when she came to this country.
I'll never understand this mentality...
Elaine Chao immigrated to the United States when she was eight years old.[5] The eldest of six daughters, Chao was born in Tapei, Taiwan to Ruth Mulan Chu Chao, a historian, and James S.C. Chao, who began his career as a merchant mariner and in 1964 founded a shipping company in New York City called Foremost Maritime Corporation and developed it into the current Foremost Group, where he still serves as Chairman.[8] James had first met Ruth when she and her family relocated to Shanghai during World War II. In 1949, James and Ruth relocated separately to Taiwan at the culmination of the Chinese Civil War, and then married in 1950. In 1961, Elaine came to the United States on a freight ship along with her mother and two younger sisters, a journey that took 37 days. Her father had arrived in New York three years earlier after receiving a scholarship.[9][10]
Chao attended Tsai Hsing Elementary School in Taipei for kindergarten and first grade,[5][11] and subsequently attended Syosset High School in Syosset, New York, on Long Island.[12] She was naturalized as a U.S. citizen at the age of 19.[13]
