They came in buses, from Utah and elsewhere, excited to help elect Mitt Romney in 2012. Spanish-speaking Mormon volunteers — former missionaries at ease making phone calls, knocking doors, and pitching strangers on the street — were a unique resource for the Republican nominee in the key southwest swing states. In East Las Vegas, a Latino working-class neighborhood where the Romney campaign opened the first Republican office, around 10% of the volunteers were Spanish-speaking Mormons, according to former Romney aides. Outreach efforts in Colorado were similarly infused with bilingual Latter-day Saints. Romney’s hardline immigration stance made the candidate a tough sell with Latino voters — but when the campaign ended, many in the party were hopeful that they’d tapped into a new longterm resource for the GOP. Instead, four years later, Mitt’s Mormon army is missing in action.

I refused to vote for Romney, and I support Trump.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Ditto!
Mormons do exactly what their church hierarchy tells them to do.
Romney’s hardline immigration stance made the candidate a tough sell with Latino voters
*******************************
50% of latino voters want the laws enforced and did not believe Romney anymore than we did.
His “hardline” stance would have become a mincing minuet if Rubio’s amnesty bill had hit his desk.
The Mormon Church is fully committed to:
“Comprehensively Screw Americans Out Of Their Country”
Amnesty is national suicide
Hell I didn’t know there was Hispanic Mormons.
In case no one is sufficiently clued in, I am not attacking Trump - I am attacking a bunch of whiners on FR.
>Now you are all whining and attacking Mormons because they are not doing Hispanic outreach for Trump. Let me ask, has Trump asked them to do anything for him?
Trump supported Romney and endorsed him. Romney spit in Trump’s face and implied his wife is a gold digging whore before Utah. I vote for Romney but now I wish I hadn’t, the man is a rat.
Mike Lee is also one of them. Joined at the jammies. Spit.
The Mormons bear watching. This cult comes with lots of criminal history dating back to its origin, not unlike Islam. They are the only large scale religious group to ever have gone to war with the US and they have done it more than once.
>Mike Lee is also one of them. Joined at the jammies. Spit.
You can’t trust a Mormon. They don’t have a sense of honor.
Oh, they do, it’s just directed in their mannor/favor/flavor.
Come on now ... Mittshitz Romney?. Hairy Reid?. Mike Cruzlee?.
Who’s to tell this Utah Catholic, it ain’t in the jammies?
Mia Love gives a good talk, but she’s done nothing. Nothing.
Jammies?
At minimum, Hatch and Gov Herbert showed at our Tea Party gathering in Draper, and they both endorse our next president - Donald Trump.
As for the rest? ... ptuii.
