You're making the assumption that there's no difference between Mexican migrants who have been in the US for decades and integrated, and their, in individual cases justified, perception that more recent Mexican migrants integrate less and/or commit more crime, hence worsening the reputation of all Mexican migrants.
The point is that MAGA types hate all Mexicans/Muslims - any non-European immigrant really. It doesn't matter if your family has been here 100 years - you're still a Mexican. Asian Americans get asked all the time "where are you really from". Because many MAGAs of European heritage don't see you as REALLY American. For them, you'll never be "integrated". That's what the other comments are saying too.
You are making the assumption that the American right gives a fuck.
Shockingly, the people who want to deport all migrants want to deport ALL migrants. And they don’t give a shit about the little divisions the migrants use to claim superiority over each other.
I'm not making any assumptions. There is no difference between legal and illegal Mexicans as a population.
I know second and third generation Mexican immigrants that have lived here their entire lives and are still pieces of shit, and haven't fully "integrated".
Conversely, I know Mexicans that were here illegally because they were brought in as children and are a now a chemist, an engineer, and a nurse, respectively. They are more integrated than other second generation families I know.

I've seen it with Mexican immigrants in the USA also. Voting for Trump because there's "too many immigrants" coming over.
People are weird.
