Who the Hell Are ‘Latinos for Trump’?
Daily Beast ^ | 09/15/2015 | Gideon Resnick

Posted on 09/15/2015 3:19:26 PM PDT by SeekAndFind

Only 20 percent say they support The Donald for president. We talked to a few, who even say they agree with him on immigration.

Trump will be lucky to win 20 percent of the Latino vote if he makes it to the general election, according to today’s polls.

He called Mexicans “rapists,” threw the most prominent Latino reporter out of a press conference, and wants to put his name on a wall running the length of the border with Mexico. Piñatas are literally being made out of him and selling like hotcakes in Mexico.

So who the hell are the 1 in 5 Latinos who are viva Trump.

Shawn Bambaro is a 39-year-old black car limo company owner in Miami, son of Colombian immigrants, and runs the “Latinos Support Trump” Facebook group. And he agrees with Trump on immigration.

“There has to be a process where illegals go back,” he said of Trump’s desire to initially deport all undocumented immigrants in the United States. “And like he says very clearly: is it going to happen overnight? Are we kicking down doors and taking mothers from babies? No. The media again wants to portray this image that ICE agents are going to be at every illegal’s door

Lhessa Lyons, a 41-year-old Trump supporter of Dominican heritage who is a research analyst for a government contracting firm, also says she is a fan of Trump's immigration plan.

Lyons said she never created a Facebook page for a politician until “Latinos for Donald Trump.”

“I’m not partisan. I try to vote for whoever I think is best at the time. I don’t consider myself a Republican or a Democrat.”

But she said she would vote for Trump in a general election, endorsing both his plans for undocumented immigrant deportation and the “Trump Wall.”

Trump will not get many votes from Mexican illegals

No kidding, ‘illegals’ can vote now?

What a stupid, child like piece of garbage from yet another ‘hit’ piece on Trump...

Really, you should hire professional writers if your going to put this stuff out for people to read...

All this does is unite the Trump supporters and bring new ones on board...

Latinos for Trump?
Round Them UP, and deport them.

Well, given that only legal immigrants Mexican or otherwise will be voting for Trump, how or why would you deport them?

Last I heard, legal immigrants who become citizens have earned the right to vote.

Illegals on the other hand will be voting rat party, so, what is your point?

The “Latinos “ that support Trump are the Latinos that love America more than Mexico.

They are your friend and neighbors. They are your co-workers.

They are the ones who speak English and are proud and thankful to live here and who respect our heritage. They are the ones who fought and died for our liberty. They are the ones who fly the Anerican flag on the 4th of July.

“Piñatas are literally being made out of him and selling like hotcakes in Mexico.”

But they love Jeb Bush. He is the leading candidate for Ambassador of Mexico in the Trump administration.

Hey seekie,
If you’d heard El Rushbo today, he had a caller from Texas who said he was at the rally in Dallas last night. He said there were MANY LEGAL Latinos there, and when Trump got to the subject of illegals, the legals were the first on their feet, applauding and cheering.

And when it was over, as they were leaving, there were a ragtag bunch of illegals protesting in the parking lot. The LEGALS protested AGAINST them and drowned them out.

Since he’s already polling in the 30s with Hispanics, I’m guessing it will be high-30s to possibly low 40s.

True. Never order refried beans, unless you are craving a plate of lard with some bean sauce mixed in for flavor and color.

And I do understand your cynicism, it's a creepy world out there, very difficult not to be cynical.

We have great refried beans here in New Mexico, as the beans are grown here, and the best are high altitude beans for some reason.

They just harvested in Estancia, down the road from me.

Time to take a trip to the Old Mill.

HUH! How the hell can they vote?

Do you really have to ask? They vote the same way they enter the country - illegally, and with help from anti-American liberals.
