CNN Investigates Why Latinos In Florida Voted For Trump: "Silent Majority Has Won"

CNN's Randi Kaye goes to a Cuban diner in Orlando to get the Latino reaction to a Trump victory. CNN found that Latinos in Florida have a problem with people illegally entering the country, one legal immigrant said, "I came through the front door." One person interviewed expressed excitement for a border wall while another and declared "the silent majority" has won.

The stunned CNN anchor said Florida Latinos "loved that he isn't politically correct."

"The bottom line is that they broke the law. When I came to this country, I came through the front door," Juan Torres, a Trump voter, told the CNNer.

"Do you think everyone should go through the front door as you say like you did?" the CNN correspondent asked.

"If you go to somebody's house, you go through the front door," he responded.

The Latinos I have known are in general pretty conservative.
Hard working. Almost to a man, Catholic. Strong, strong family supporters.

But I will tell you, I get a little fed up with the “Press 1 for English” stuff...

If they want to come in LEGALLY, and LEARN TO SPEAK AND WRITE THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE, then I don’t have a problem with it.

Hispanics. They are Spanish speaking Americans. From Cuba, Venezuela, Colombia, Puerto Rica, Spain, and others.

They do not refer to themselves as ‘latinos or latinas.’

The closer they lived under Communism, the more they reject the D party.

The more educated and successful they have become, they vote R.

Libs think of all ethnic groups as they define them to be basically low IQ tribal societies that only want “stuff” and want to be “ruled” by elites who will treat them well and give them stuff. It shocks the libs when they find out that lots of ethnics are actually individuals and can do esoteric things like think, an activity the libs think is exclusive to them. And the ethnics often have a capacity to reason which the libs DON’T have. The libs hear some of these things from real people and it shocks them so that they retreat into their gilt enclaves and tell each other that they didn’t see and hear what they saw and heard.

Liberals believe that minority groups think only as groups and that they desire always a wise and benevolent king.

I always wonder why people tend to think Latinos belong to a Hispanic Community that does not exist, and why do certain folks want to put us in communities instead of promoting individualism.

No, because many Latinos who've lived here for at least two generations realize the problem: many of the illegals coming in from Mexico come from the southern half of the country, where the people are often not even literate in Spanish, of all things! In short, those illegals could barely comprehend Univision and Telemundo TV broadcasts here in the USA--and that makes them difficult to employ even for farm labor work.

“Because Latinos are Americans too.”

Yes.
As are all hyphenated Americans.
The Democrat divide and conquer strategy may be smashed.

Also a lot of Americans don’t realize there is a very strong ethnic & social caste system in Mexico. It goes back to the beginning, Peninsulares , Mestizos & Indians. The current crop of illegals are predominantly Indians and as someone pointed out not even literate in Spanish. I think Trump pointed this out, not very elegantly but he did point it out! Assimilating them will be tough.

Its sickening how the left treats human beings - Like cattle, to be prodded, herded, coerced, and ultimately butchered.

It’s all they do, over and over again. You’d think people would be sick of it by now and reject them completely.
