Worse, it means anything they want it to mean, at whatever moment they need it. You could be perfectly fine today, and tomorrow be public enemy #1.
Look at the Venezuelans. I have several very close Venezuelan friends, all of whom came to America to escape the brutal Maduro regime. They all arrived illegally, but very quickly hooked up with lawyers, and got documented ASAP, which all previous non-MAGA Administrations were happy to assist with. All eventually became American citizens, and got jobs, some started their own businesses, and they have been active, positive contributors to American society. Even Conservatives were happy about it, because it gave Maduro a black eye.
But today, all Venezuelans are evil gang-members, here to rob, rape, pillage, and eat our pets. Not because they are all those things, but because MAGA simply says they are, and today, these good people are all considered demonized criminals, by the same people who used to be proud of them for resisting Maduro.
You can be the best American today, and be the worst American tomorrow, if MAGA decides that it is politically expedient.
