Hispanics rightly take “Latinx” to be an insult. They don’t think they’re “breakfast tacos”. Nor do they think it makes any sense at all to tell young Juan that he can “identify” as Isabella.
Plus everybody saw how rich White Lefties acted up in Maaathah’s Vinyaaaaaahd when they saw a group of 50 hispanics without mops or leaf blowers show up. They shrieked in horror and had the national guard show up and take them away to a military base within hours.
If Republicans were smart and they are not, in the new Contract With America everyone already forgot about, they should have put "We Promise NEVER to use the term LatinX".
That alone would have brought many Hispanics over.

The names don’t do it justice. In fact, I believe Hispanic basically means anyone who migrated from a Spanish speaking country (implied is western hemisphere) but even if that is a lot less off-putting than Latinx it is ridiculous to have such a huge block like that. Going just from Puerto Rico to Cuba what a difference in cultures you have, and then you have central (not gonna call it latin here) America and how things can be so different in Mexico (a very large country) to Costa Rica and Panama. Then, I don’t know how much immigration we’ve had, but how different is Columbia just from it’s neighbor Venezuela?
Many may be Catholic, and implied is being socially conservative, but that’s definitely not a block.
What I have been paying attention to lately is what they are saying. Seems like you can ask about immigration or gun control or certain political figures, but if left open, the concern is about everyday issues that affect everyone just trying to live. Seems to me that inflation is most often brought up. If true, I don’t think bodes well for democrats.
