It is a fact that Trump was criticised for policies that were considered protectionist including his avowal to punish companies for outsourcing work at the cost of American livelihood. You can criticise Trump for a million other reasons (including employing Mexicans in his hotels and outsourcing their merchandise to foreign countires) i.e. being totally hypocritical in not practising what he preaches. But people who say that Indian Americans can be expected to see things from the American point of view are blowing hot and cold at the same time when they criticise(d) him (Trump) for protectionist policies.
And as to the digression, it was you who opened this line of argument in the opening post itself by including a link to a TOI news item which gloats over the inclusion of 20 Indians in Biden administration as if that is something that all Indians (Indian citizens) should be feel elated about. Just as you speak for those who share your elation about Kamala Harris, I speak for those who feel otherwise for our own valid reasons. If this thread is a celebration of the heights that Indian origin people have reached in USA, then (in my opinion) there are far more inspiring names like Hargovind Khorana, S Chandrasekar, S R S Varadan, Manjul Bhargava, Kalpana Chawla, Sunita Williams, Zubin Mehta, Indra Nooyi to mention but a handful of names.
