Excellent. Hispanic US citizens want the same things as any of the rest of us, to "make America great again" for everyone.

To me, political pandering is a form of condescension.

But everyone said that he was not going to get any votes from women, blacks or Mexicans. This poll must be wrong.

Pray America wakes

Latinas and Latinos legally here do not want non-law abiding people here any more than any other race does.

What could have ever made those limp wristed candidates think otherwise??

Gosh, I just heard a reporter the other day, breathlessly saying that Trump was polling lower than those guys with Hispanics, and that’s why Trump will lose. I just assumed he was lying.

Hispanics maybe don’t consider themselves a ‘minority group.’ La Raza hasn’t done its job.

My guess is that they want Trump because he isn’t Hillary.

From the article: “...Romney’s poll numbers were at 21 percent with Hispanic voters, while McCain polled at 23 percent — both slightly behind Trump’s 24 percent.”

To be fair, this appears like all 3 poll relatively similarly (margin of error) low.

Doesn’t anyone open articles here? lol

I usually dont.

That he’s barely doing as AWFUL as the others did, 24 percent support compred to 21 doesn’t show me that pandering/not pandering to hispanics, blacks, lgbt has ANY effect either way.

This is going to be won with whites or lost with whites.

The maniacs who talked about getting 25 percent of the black vote two months ago have faced reality.

AS LONG as he doesn’t do WORSE amog those groups, and white men show out in YUGE and SERIES numbers, we can win.

It will be interesting to see how the numbers turn out. I’m not sure how accurate the polling is going to be in this particular election, because to say you are voting for Trump will get you chastised in some circles. Likely, his numbers will be the same or slightly better among these demographics, but nothing would surprise me much.

Good analysis. The way I see it is many, many blacks work o day every four years or they would have had the jobs mexicans have.

Hispanics are not like Europeans who came, in my case, from Italy.

We didn’t want an Italy 2, Germans didn’t want a Germany 2, etc.

Hispanics want a Mexico 2. They want their “lost” land back.

Single white mothers want their babies paid for by the state

#### em all.

White men and married white women will make or break this election.

Lots of Latinos consider themselves macho - makes it easier to appreciate/respect a trump over the pansies....

You don’t think Hispanics are watching this circus with BLM? They are.

Hispanic citizens are not any different than regular citizens and the idea that they should be more concerned about illegal immigration than they are about jobs, wages, security, and other domestic policy is condescending. All that pandering does is appeal to the hispanics that we don’t want in the GOP. We don’t want those who embrace socialism and left wing policies. We want those who came to America because of its opportunities not its social programs.
