“Whatever Donald Trump is doing in office, in the minds of Latinos it is not working. They have turned against him in massive, massive numbers,” said CNN data chief Harry Enten on Monday.
Enten pointed out that Trump was nearly tied with 2024 Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris with Latinos on immigration, where the former vice president enjoyed a 2 percentage-point advantage over Trump in October 2024.
Now, Trump has a -38 net approval rating with Latinos on immigration.
So they went from 50% support to 30% support. That’s a pretty hefty change, but given that they’re the regimes primary victims I have to wonder what those remaining 30% are thinking.
PS: In the current stage of American politics, voting blocs are meaningless.
And Latinos are particularly meaningless. In addition to the oft cited differences in which nation they/their family came from, there are a lot of Latinos that are just white people with Spanish last names.
“Obviously I’m fine, I’m one of the good ones!”
Their only thought: “fuck you, I got mine”
