Contributing sentiments towards policy:

52% : David Sacks, the venture capitalist who has become a fundraiser for Donald Trump and a troll of Ukraine, left aged five, and grew up in a South African diaspora family in Tennessee.
47% : The Trump administration says the South African government is pursuing racist, anti-white policies through affirmative action laws and a new land expropriation law it says targets Afrikaners' land.
46% : Peter Thiel spent years of childhood in South Africa and Namibia, where his father was involved in uranium mining as part of the apartheid regime's clandestine drive to acquire nuclear weapons," Kuper wrote.
44% : The HHS office for refugee resettlement was ready to offer them support, including with housing, furniture and other household items, and expenses such as groceries, clothing and diapers, a document obtained by the Associated Press said.
40% : They are the first Afrikaners - a white minority group in South Africa - to be relocated after Donald Trump issued an executive order in February accusing South Africa's Black-led government of racial discrimination against them and announcing a program to offer them relocation to the US.
39% : As the Financial Times columnist Simon Kuper pointed out last year, several of the most influential voices around Trump "are fiftysomething white men with formative experiences in apartheid South Africa".
22% : Trump himself falsely claimed to reporters South Africa's leaders were "taking away land, they're confiscating land".
