Latino Support for Trump Is Real

President Donald Trump has done almost everything he can to anger Latino voters. And yet, his support among this crucial portion of the electorate remains surprisingly consistent. After the 2016 election, exit polls analyzed by the Pew Research Center showed that 28 percent of Latino voters supported Trump; today, 30 percent support him.

MSNBC is outraged that Dems aren't doing enough to "connect" with "LaDEENos."

Every single election.

He bought them free lunch. And tried to sell them timeshares!

And it’s not a surprise to me.

Maybe because he isn't forcing them to call themselves LATINX.

Maybe they don't want their cousins pouring into the country after them.

Then they are some of the dumbest people who have ever, ever lived.

We admit it; we love dictators!

Apparently it's all our fault.

r4, if they're more offended by do nothing youngsters impotently demanding that they call themselves "Latinx" than they are of Trump calling them rapists and criminals, they deserve Trump.

Many Latinos are white

Many Latinos *want* to be white, in fact some take pride in not speaking Spanish.

by Anonymousreply 12February 19, 2020 2:15 AM

Latinos have never been known for having common sense. They’re desperate for whites to like them.

That’s not the way most Americans look at them. If you have a tan, most people do not consider you white.

Growing up in Florida, Cubans are by far the worst offenders. I have never encountered a more deplorable bunch when it comes to politics.

This means 70% don’t support him. We should be as lucky with white people as we are with these “trump-supporting” Latinos, Lol.

by Anonymousreply 16February 19, 2020 2:33 AM

That's their right to become deplorables and to vote against their best interests.

It also goes to show, that a large majority of Americans do NOT want open immigration. They want less immigration. Even Hispanics want less Hispanics. The Democratic candidates would be very wise to understand this and say very little about immigration. They just need to get elected. They can do whatever they want when in office. But they have to get into office or they won't be doing anything

I agree R17.

Because the media and the left would have you think that ANY talk about immigration, being anti illegal immigration, is anti Latino. The truth of the matter is its a very polarizing issue to Latinos. Most Latinos don't like illegal immigration, and a far higher percentage of voting Latinos than Latinos in the general population. Trump is trash, and but the media needs to grow up and stop painting these issues as black and white.

by Anonymousreply 20February 19, 2020 5:50 AM

r7, Its because they are from those places that some of them support trump. These people aren't stupid. They know Trump is not a dictator; he's manic, unprofessional, a jerk. But the realize he is the walking embodiment of unfiltered capitalism. They want that. They've come from socialist dictatorship regimes. Liberals need to brand a better alternative.

You ain't lying, r15. And other latinos, like the Venezuelans, aren't far behind.
