Dem nightmare deepens as party is 'underperforming' among Hispanics
American Thinker ^ | July 05, 2018 | Thomas Lifson

Golly gee, it turns out that race-baiting and fear-mongering aren't paying off for the Democrats and that Hispanic voters are not universally motivated by the call of open borders.

Josh Kraushaar reports for the National Journal:

Democrats counting on President Trump's hard-line immigration policies to spark energized Hispanic turnout and a wave against GOP candidates in this year's midterms will be surprised to see what's transpiring. Even during the heat of the family-separation crisis, Democrats are underperforming in heavily Hispanic constituencies, from GOP-held border battlegrounds in Texas to diversifying districts in Southern California to the nation's most populous Senate battleground in Florida[.]

It's becoming increasingly obvious that Democrats believe all sorts of racist stereotypes about minorities: that blacks are incapable of advancing themselves without help from Democrats and the quotas they espouse, and that Hispanics are all supportive of illegal immigration, for example.

Do you suppose it’s because they had a chance to fix the problem for the Dreamers but wouldn’t compromise because they opposed border security?

Perhaps but who do they elect in their countries of origin?

I have a question. I only know most ethnic groups by their stereotypes. Does the dems not just tolerance but aggressive promoting of sexual deviancy play well with pro-family and macho values in many ethnic and religious communities?

That's what happens when you treat people like they're stupid.

A good economy and security are at the top of Maslow's hierarchy on needs.

Running on open boarders is the gift that keeps on giving

I’m just waiting for “reality” to set in and they start saying in unison. “please forget all that stupid, untrue $hit we’ve been saying and come back to us, we’re sorry!” But it’s too late!

I'm not sure how devout, but Hispanic men tend to be somewhat macho, and may identify with President Trump's powerful persona.

Absolutely correct. I’ve tried explaining this to people who don’t understand DJT’s hispanic support.

Maybe because they see all hispanics as the same...

Dems were ecstatic when Perez got the DNC job...and named Muslim Cong Keith Ellison as his second in command.

At that time, Perez gleefully announced that “abortion on demand” was the Dems ticket to victory.

Unfortunately Perez’s abortion worship flopped.....so Perez began promoting assisted suicide and infanticide as the “real” tickets to Dem victories.

With the new sagging stats coming in, Perez is dragging out his “winning nuclear option”......

.......mercy killing of Hollywood celebrities.

The author of the original piece in National Journal makes the excellent point that this is yet another dagger into the narrative pushed by the 2013 “Autopsy”.

The party of slave owners, slave torturers, lynchers, the KKK and state Klan leader Robert Byrd, Sheriff Bull Connor, Lester Maddox, George Wallace, and segregation still aren’t over hating the Republicans who freed their slaves, and who actually killed the President who emancipated their slaves.
Many blacks are leaving the current democrat plantation.
