MAGA commentator Dinesh D’Souza defended his daughter Danielle D’Souza as an acrimonious exchange between Rep Brandon Gill and streamer Hasan Piker shifted towards Brandon’s wife, Danielle. The exchange started with an interview of Hasan Piker with Axios, where Piker said America is worse than Al-Qaeda. Rep. Brandon Gill said Hasan Piker proves why the US needs to end birth tourism.“Hasan Piker is the poster child for why we need to end birth tourism. He was born in America to Turkish nationals, was raised back in Turkey to hate Western civilization, and now spends his time working to make America weaker and our enemies stronger,” Brandon Gill posted, sharing the clip of Piker’s interview.“Your wife is Indian,” Piker’s rebuttal was short and on expected lines, as this is not the first time that Brandon Gill was mocked for his anti-immigration stance. Every time he posts against immigration, he is reminded that his wife is Indian.Daniell’s father Dinesh D’Souza chimed in and posted a family photo of his daughter, son-in-law and grandchildren and clarified that Daniell is not Indian. “She’s Christian, born in America and her mom is white. Care to show us a picture of your family?” Dinesh posted.
