Residents in a town that voted overwhelmingly for Trump and support his hardline immigration policies don't want to live with the consequences of those policies.
Personally I'd build the detention centre closer to the town.
Trump supporters don't want a detention centre near them

NIMBYs are the entire MAGA base. That Venn diagram is a damn near circle for sure.

There are tons of NIMBYs who would consider themselves to be liberal or even progressive. Many would argue that they're not NIMBYs because their concerns are (to them) reasonable.
I'm thinking of where housing and services for the homeless and low income families get built, for example.

Not sure why they're complaining. It's a brand new gated community.

The build quality of the Trump ™ concentration camp is rather shoddy.
They were expecting build quality of Dachau and instead they have some tent city like sheriff Joe Arpaio's jail in Arizona.
