President Trump's public approval numbers have hit 50% among likely voters, according to a new Rasmussen poll, which is good news for midterms. And who should be pushing those ratings to el norte?
No kidding: Hispanic voters.
You know, the ones who are supposed to hate Trump with a passion. After all, doesn't the press dutifully report that Trump is an enemy of illegals, and aren't illegals in the same conventional wisdom simply synonymous with Hispanics, and with Hispanics and illegals all the same thing, isn't it all just proof that Trump is racist?
Here's what the Washington Times, now featured on Drudge, had to say:
Are Hispanics shifting their allegiances to President Trump?
A recent Harvard/Harris poll recorded a 10-point spike in Hispanic support for Mr. Trump. It hasn't received much attention from the mainstream media, which is heavily invested in its portrait of the president as an unrepentant and unpopular "nativist."
Coming in the midst of the nationwide controversy over children and families at the U.S.-Mexico border, it suggests that Hispanics may not be the entrenched liberal voting constituency that Democrats so often imagine.
This makes me say "whoa." Because ever since 2008, when I attended the Democratic Party's convention in Denver as a reporter, I've sat through Democratic caucuses and listened closely to how Democrats have staked large amounts of the party's fortunes and resources on controlling the Hispanic vote, with visions of controlling it permanently

I’m not so sure. The Southern Baptists are in turmoil. Many of their pastors are caving, even people who were firmly conservative an election cycle ago.
The rank-and-file, not so much. But the seminaries, like in more liberal denominations, have gone hard left in the SBC.
Unfortunately, FBC Dallas is an outlier.
There is another possibility: pastors and professors are under lots of pressure from the New Left. Many professors I know don’t say anything, or give mixed signals just to throw the opposition off. Pastors could be doing much the same thing. It’s hard to tell.
Picked up a ride from a very Hispanic mechanic in a work related move - he had Rush on the radio - just sayin
I have similar problems with many, not all, fellow churchies. They arent voting Hilary or Bernie but Trump just seems unusually immoral to them. I have tried the best I can to promote his excellent actions esp his work in the area of religious freedom. I hope I can get some of them to vote.
Let’s hope that more and more Americans can honestly look at the truth :)
That is a fact!
RINOs have said for years they couldn’t really crack down on illegals because they needed the Hispanic vote. I knew that was BS, Hispanics I know despise illegals. I am sure the real reason is they had people that hire large numbers of illegals paying them off.
People who support open borders and illegal immigration did not vote for Trump, he made no secret how he was going to act on those issues. He was indeed elected President.
WE SAW THE MOVIE LAST NIGHT. I FOUND THE EXPLANATION OF NAZISM WITH THE SUBSEQUENT CHANGE OF THE SOURCE FROM LEFT TO RIGHT VERY WELL DONE. ALSO THE EXPOSURE OF THE SO CALLED ALT RIGHT GUY WAS NEW TO ME. I HAD NEVER SEEN HIM EXPOSED LIKE THAT. OTHERWISE IT WAS AS YOU DESCRIBED IT. WE ENJOYED IT. NOW WE WE WON’T GO TO A MOVIE FOR ANOTHER 10 YEARS.

Whenever I see pictures of that POS weakling, Quisling, TRAITOR BOWING to other leaders, I SEE RED!
Words cannot adequately describe my LOATHING of that POS!
10% spike from Hispanic voters. DOUBLE approval ratings from Black voters.
My Gawd! We just MIGHT be able to heal this country and bring us all together again...and leave the far-left Socialist dirt bags in the gutter where they belong!
Best. Election. Ever. EVER! MAGA! :)
