Latinos themselves are not a very cohesive group.

Many are die-hard Catholics. Many fled from Cuba and will vote against anything that looks like communism.

But that’s far from all Latinos, or even all Cuban immigrants.

It’s important to not lump everyone together.

hm, that makes sense with what i've heard so far, so i guess that shouldn't surprise me.

i guess i'm probably just most confused by the fact that people would vote for trump at all lol

You, me. The entire sane world.

It’s truly perplexing why most these people would vote for the guy. Or even donate to his political campaign since he brags about not needing donations…(and his lawyers fees… yesh.)

yeah, idk, one of the mysteries of our age, bound to be present until the end of time. Until someone covers it in a significant historical context that is.
