New Yorker Cites Two Failed Pollsters to Prove 'Collapse' of Trump's Latino Support
Newsbusters ^ | July 15, 2026 | P.J. Gladnick

The New Yorker seems to think that President Donald Trump will again be running for re-election in 2028. Perhaps they take the "TRUMP 2028" seriously since Jack Herrera wrote a piece in their Tuesday issue that makes that assumption in "Democratic Schadenfreude and the Latino Vote," with the subtitle of "Trump’s once strong approval rating among Latinos has collapsed, but Democrats can’t count on their support."

Herrera bases his sweeping conclusion of a "collapse" of Latino support for Trump on a total of two polls with an incredibly poor track record on this topic. This led Herrera to engage in a high level of liberal Hopium as you can see in his story based on dubious sources:

Thank you very much and God bless you.

Of all the polls out there to cite and the New Yorker writer decides to rely upon two polls that FAILED horribly to predict the outcome of the Latino vote in the 2024 election.

If Trump’s Latino support has collapsed, then I don’t think he’s going to be re-elected in 2026.

C’mon, Man!

Everyone knows that Billary Clinton won the 2016 election. None other than the New York Slimes promised it, stating it was a 90% done deal.

Until.........it............wasn’t.

Some of the wonderful videos, Trump Can’t Win, Trump Will NEVER be the Republican Nominee, and the Pièce De Résistance, The Young Turks 2016 MELTDOWN.

The TYT meltdown has been viewed so many times, it even has its own IMBD Webpage.

The New York Times and their butt boy pollsters KNOW a certain percentage of people want to ‘stand with the winners’ so pollsters lie leading up to elections saying, “Jump on the bandwagon with the winners...

They are NOT to be trusted. The pollsters and MSM work for white liberal elites.

What does the US Constitution say?
On the face of it, the US Constitution seems to rule out anyone having a third term. The 22nd Amendment states:

“No person shall be elected to the office of the president more than twice, and no person who has held the office of president, or acted as president, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected president shall be elected to the office of the president more than once.”

Changing the constitution would require a two-thirds approval from both the Senate and the House of Representatives, as well as approval from three-quarters of the country’s state-level governments.

Trump’s Republican Party controls both chambers of Congress but does not have the majorities needed. Additionally, the Democratic Party controls 18 of the 50 state legislatures.

See the link to check out red counties on the Texas border for election 2020 (the stolen one) verses 2024. In 2020 Trump won few of those border counties. It went from 14 deep blue and 6 deep Red in 2020 to 6 light blue to 14 red or light red in 2024

The counties that were affected greatly by the Biden border crises and millions of illegals were those that went from blue to red.

Nothing has changed

Trump Hispanic vote...

2016 - Hillary Clinton vs Trump - 28%

2020 - Joe Biden vs Trump - 32%

2024 - Kamala Harris vs Trump - 46%

The 46% was probably a one time event.

Kamala Harris was not a strong candidate.

Texas Hispanics, especially those living near the chaotic 2024 USA-Mexico border, went like 60% for Trump, with record turn out.

2028 election?

I do not think any Republican nominee can get 40% of Hispanic votes nationally, including Marco Rubio.
