Fuck these ladder snatching pricks. These "I got mine so fuck you" mother fuckers. Every single one of them.

Most Americans today are 4th generation at best. Fuck you if you were halfway decent cared about your dumbass ancestry.com results more then helping the billionaire capitalist fucking pig that made them available to you, the maybe you'd see that these FUCKS raped your ancestors and gaslit you into believing if you pay your taxes you can be one of them. Latinos, you'll always be brown.

This is not any more weird than literally anyone supporting him. They're all voting aggressively against their own self-interests.

They act like it's somehow makes no sense for Latinos to support Trump, but let's be honest: it makes no sense for anyone to support Trump.

It saddens me thinking about how stupid our country is.

como se dice "leopards eating faces"?

How can Latinos not realize how much Trump hates them? It's his main topic, how the dirty immigrants are pouring across the border bringing crime and taking American jobs. He and his cronies say it over and over with every speech.

I would be surprised if Catholicism wasn't playing a big part in that as well.

My goddamn Guatamalan immigrant coworker yesterday: "Kamala ruined this country, she let in all the illegals and they're ruining everything. She did nothing to stop them!"

Ignorant and brainwashed... Ffs.

Hell, this history was like 4 years ago when he was president and deporting Hispanic immigrants and still hasn't shut up about his border wall or being harsh immigrants. It isn't ancient history or anything.

Do they think that his recent focus on Haitian immigrants means he likes Latino immigrants now?

Baffling.

If you ignore history, you are doomed to repeat it:.

First they came for the Communists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Communist

Then they came for the Socialists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Socialist

Then they came for the trade unionists And I did not speak out Because I was not a trade unionist

Then they came for the Jews And I did not speak out Because I was not a Jew

Then they came for me And there was no one left To speak out for me

by Martin Niemöller, a German Lutheran pastor and theologian born in Lippstadt, Germany, in 1892.

We've seen mass deportations before and when it happened American citizens were deported."

This is the terrifying reality that these fools don’t realize. Trump’s Schutzstaffel will not care about your legal status. You could be a fourth generation citizen but if your name is even vaguely Hispanic sounding you will not be spared when they start rounding people up. You will be guilty until proven innocent. It’s a serious mistake not to take MAGA at their word when they promise mass deportations.

He’s absolutely talking about all of us, no matter what our citizenship status is. That lady and all those who support him will be the first ones to get shipped the fuck outta here because they already have their addresses and phone numbers. There’s a special place in hell for people that sell out their own kind.

On one hand id love to see the leopard eating their faces, but on the other another 4 years of trump in office and on TV every day make me wanna puke.

Kind of a clickbait headline but there are some interesting parts in the text... It's worth keeping these in mind when doing election outreach in the US.

"... I feel like we, as Latinos, are traditionally conservative.”

"traditionally conservative" is a tautology, and this statement is a bit exaggerated, but Latinos do often have strong values associated with family, religion, work, and other things that conservatives try to "own".

Paschall said that if there is racism, it comes from white liberals who tell her that, as a Latina, she should not support Trump. She describes that view as “so deep-rooted that they don’t even realise they’re being racist”.

I disagree with Paschall's assertion. However, while white liberals call Republicans "weird", those same white liberals often come across as weird to people who don't share their ideas. DISCLAIMER: I think Republicans are weird and agree with white liberals more often than not. I'm just describing some of the attitudes I see here in my battleground state, so we can communicate better during voter outreach. END DISCLAIMER

There are other factors at play. The proportion of Mexicans crossing the border to work without visas has dropped sharply in recent years with much larger numbers of people now coming from Central and South America as refugees. They sometimes face hostility from more established Latino communities, about 60% of which are of Mexican ancestry.

There's a tendency to think of Latinos as some monolithic people, but this paragraph describes one way that isn't true. Even if you only consider those with the right to vote, there's a tremendous difference between say a third-generation Cuban-American, a recent Central American naturalized citizen in Nevada, a second-generation Puerto Rican in Georgia, and a Tejano whose family has lived here for hundreds of years. Each of them have a wide variety of priorities and opinions, it's not all about immigration. And if they vote for Trump it's not just that they're brainwashed or ignorant, a lot of times they're holding their nose in the same way a lot of people on the left are holding their nose to vote for Kamala. (Not me! I think she's all right! In fact I just recently signed up to help her campaign, I hope it's not too late...)
