Uppity Latinos: Democrat Version

In 2016, an astounding 29 percent of Latinos voted for Trump.

And now, two years into his presidency, polls show that his support among Latinos is somewhere between 33 and 41 percent. That’s insanely good for a president who is so bad on issues that Latinos supposedly care about.

Wait, what?!?

As a Never Trumper, I didn’t get it. So, I interviewed some Latinos for Trump and I got an earful. Many of them saw themselves not as Latinos but as Americans…

Marco Gutierrez, founder of Latinos for Trump: who does he think he is?

Imagine that, those uppity Latinos ungratefully refusing to accept their assigned role as member of an aggrieved victim group. How dare they?

and so they weren’t hung up on Trump’s anti-Latino screeds. They didn’t like or trust Clinton, appreciated Trump’s frankness, wanted a strong leader, and thought he was right about a lot of issues, including trade and immigration.

Yes, immigration. What most non-Latinos don’t grasp is that Latinos are ambivalent about illegal immigration. They have a front-row seat not just to the pain of deportations, but also to how many immigrants commit crimes or abuse social services.

Read the whole thing: Latinos are waking up to the duplicity of the Democrats.

I’m doing some retirement counseling half way across state today and don’t have time for additional analysis so I leave that to you.

Latinos want jobs and good pay. Yes, there are those that leech off the system, but for the most part, Latinos are about family, and success.
Graduating from high school is a momentous occasion for some families who never had a anyone get passed the 8th or 9th grade because someone had to work to support the family.
Latinos vote with their pocketbooks, and what's best for families, not ideologies.
The church plays a huge role is a lot of the families, and being responsible is sacred. Blasphemy in front of a latino grandmother and find out what that's all about.
generally, third in line for opportunities, Latinos, create small businesses to provide jobs for families they know, and especially for the kids as they grow, so they learn responsibility.
The President has given more people more opportunity in 2 years than the last 5 presidents.

Easy. IT'S BECAUSE THEY ARE AMERICANS...

Why can’t these people figure this out. Everyone (normal people, i.e., ones with thinking minds) want to care for their families and try to make things better for their children.

When someones platform is “Trump is evil and he and all his followers must die!” I see nothing there for the improvement of anyone but those who want power.

This NeverTrumper is an idiot. Latinos are Americans, not Latinos and if can’t understand that, you are really stupid...
