"Big Bang Theory" creator Chuck Lorre, donning an IMAG (Immigrants Make America Great) hat, said Thursday his new CBS sitcom is a love letter to America's immigrants and how they make America great.
"The story I wanted tell was about the greatness of first-generation immigrants, about the focus and discipline, hard work, rigorous honesty, that goes with coming and grabbing hold of the American dream," Lorre said during a news conference for the show, "Bob Hearts Abishola," at the Beverly Hilton Hotel. "So, the premise of this series is immigrants make America great."
"That was a story I thought worth telling," he added.
Trump in 2016 popularized the slogan, "Make America Great Again," and during his first term in office has pushed a fierce immigration policy.
