Taking it a step further, this isn't even hypocrisy to them.
Conservatism requires ingroups and outgroups.
Brown and black people are examples outgroups to conservatives.
Their ingroup is straight binary white people.
In their world view, treating an ingroup poorly is a violation of human rights. Treating an outgroup poorly is giving them what they deserve (for not being part of the ingroup).
For this to be hypocrisy from their perspective, Trump would have to be currently deporting who they perceive to be in their ingroup en masse.
Behavior matters less than identity to conservatives.
