New polling conducted by Somos Votantes and the Global Strategy Group between August 26 and September 4 shows that Trump’s net approval rating among Latino voters has dropped from -11 points in February to -23 points in September.
His favorability rating has seen a similar drop, from -12 points in February to -20 points in September.
For the life of me, I have no idea how he ever managed to convince Latino voters to support him in the 1st place.
Latino guys in trucks working blue collar jobs feel more like white Republican guys to them than liberal democrats. Only problem is that the gop doesn’t think that.
Latino culture is just very conservative by nature. There’s a lot of factors, religion, (family) education, traditions and just how their communities operate. It’s more telling that Trump literally has to threaten deportation or extermination to get them to break ranks than his rhetoric for the past decade, let alone prior to that. If Latinos didn’t have brown skin they’d be the model republican. And somehow that drives the power center of the party up a fucking wall thanks to their racist views.
None of that should matter if you have and use a brain.
Conservative politics, as John Staurt Mills pointed out, attracts.stupid people. Not.all conservatives are stupid.of course, many are just grifters etc.
“I did not mean that Conservatives are generally stupid; I meant, that stupid persons are generally Conservative” h . John Stuart Mill
And Cipllola defines a stupid person as someone who hurts others even if they hurt themselves.
You have the perfect intersection here of conservative and stupid.
You remember we are talking about conservatives, who are conditioned to shut off their brain, avoid any critical thinking and take what ever “good” people tell them as though it were gospel.
Chickens for McNuggets. The first rule of immigration is shit all over other immigrants.
Trump didn’t win the Latino vote, Biden lost it. The same goes for the 2024 election. It was a rejection of Democratic Party establishment, not a Trump victory.
Fair enoigh but image being so disillusioned by Biden or Harris you’d vote for Trump …as a latino. You’d have to be a either a fool… or a phsycopath. I mean i can see u being so upset you vote for neither but Trump ?
If you don’t offer voters a good candidate, then you will lose the election. Saying “I’m less evil than the other guy” won’t be enough.
