I don't disagree with whare you're saying, but I've talked to a lot of people that didn't understand it was deeply racist, but also these are people I know have been consuming ''illegals'' are the root of all problems media, so I'm not sure they care at all about not being racist, I'd generally say they weren't racist in action or speech, but these are people who have a severe disinterest in anything past the surface thinking. For context I live in a rural area, I'm Hispanic, and pretty sensitive to the blatant racism against Hispanics in the Republican party from Bob Dole on.
