You know who supported Operation Wetback the most? Native born Latinos whose wages and jibs were being undercut by illegal laborers. Latinos who have jobs HATE illegal aliens. They left the Latin world to come to America to get away from what is happening down south. They don’t want that culture imported.
The media always state how Trump is against immigration when he is not,. he is against illegal immigration.
Then why do the media and both parties assume that if one is against illegal immigration then they will loose the Hispanic vote?
Obviously they are wrong as I know plenty who came here legally who is against illegal immigration and why the republicans do not mention this is beyond me.
Trump was always polite and engaged with the women in the shop -- all of them Hispanic, by the way. A generous tipper, Trump was on time for appointments and remembered the names of the women in the shop and even the names of their family members, taking a conversational interest in and praising their accomplishments. Trump's wife and children were polite and pleasant as well. The good conduct of Trump and his family was distinct from the sometimes dismal behavior of other wealthy customers.
Trump's Jacksonian populism resonates with many ordinary Americans worried over the country's drift and the ominous signs of decline and elite dishonesty. By intuition, luck, or calculation, Trump has thereby also grabbed onto the point of leverage for a strong appeal to many Hispanic Americans. Hispanic and immigrant or the children of immigrants they may be, but they also have a strong sense of patriotism and pride in the country.
When matched against a Democratic nominee who can barely utter a kind word about America, Trump's robust Americanism has the potential to make deep inroads into many Democratic strongholds. I would like to think that any GOP nominee could do the same, but as a group they lack Trump's bravura manner in seizing the spotlight and getting his message out. Most of the GOP filed would fail to get much attention with anything less than lighting themselves on fire and running out on the field during a nationally televised ball game.
My wife is Peruvian - and a U.S. citizen since 2008.
When she first registered to vote, she was “undeclared” ...
Today, she registered as a Republican.
I’m happy.
People like to lump “Latinos” together and it doesn’t work that way. Many have been here for generations or have come here through a tedious legal process and those that I know feel no relationship to illegals and in fact are more critical of illegals than most other people I know.
What politicians call Latinos are people from many countries with totally different backgrounds. Many have nothing in common other than being labeled Latino or Hispanic or whatever PC word others use to refer to them.
ll say it now. Trump, if he is nominated, will get less than 25% of the Latino vote. It doesn’t matter, legal or illegal, its a brotherhood among Hispanics and they stick together. Trump is viewed as a racist among the vast majority of minorities in this country, in particular Hispanics. The Democrats will play on that and get them to the polls en-masse.
There are a few Latinos who are conservative and oppose the mass invasion, but they are very few.
I think Trump will have the most difficult time among the GOP candidates to win this election. He already is viewed unfavorably by 60% in this nation. It doesn’t bode well for him.
El Trumpo has machismo! Latinos love machismo.
