My family met my boyfriend for the 1st time... Someone please tell me why my mom thought it was appropriate to ask my boyfriend if he's an "illegal"?

Because he's not white and he was born in another country she automatically assumed he's here illegally... He had to correct her that he's a US citizen and has been for over ten years now to which she told him, "Oh then Trump loves you". Only my mom... Can I get a new mom please?

@Insomniac100 He awkwardly laughed and just basically talked to just my dad and I after that. My dad even was embarrassed and apologized to him even though he wasn't the one making those comments. Later in the car he was just like "Did that actually happened?" To be fair I warned him about my mom beforehand but I think he thought I was joking...

Your boyfriend is a good guy for handling himself like that. Keep him! @NaturallyPeculiar

@Insomniac100 Yeah. He's a good guy and I feel lucky that he didn't get super offended or just leave after she said that.
