Immigration changes society. People who like their society the way it is, and don’t want it to become more like the places the immigrants come from, are entitled to vote against that. They don’t owe you any explanation.
Such desires can be and have been xenophobic. You’re welcome to prove that they’ve never been. I would like to see you revise the Federalists’ own history for once, instead of someone else’s.

You’ve elided a premise along the lines of “moral rights cannot be exercised in a xenophobic manner,” which is incorrect.
