One word explains it all: Latinx.
No reasonably Catholic or heterosexual Hispanic wants their children anywhere near that appellation, and in some cases, would kill to keep those people away.
And the Democrats really made a mess of it from the very beginning.
The Democrats can only go so far with telling Hispanics, or any minority, that Republicans are racist etc. and that they should support Democrats by default. Democrats can’t just say Republicans are racist. Democrats have to actually have some policies which can attract support.
Exactly! The few Hispanic kids at the primary school where I taught were extremely respectful & took their learning seriously.
