Hispanics stick with Trump despite tough border stance
Washington Examiner ^ | June 14,20019 | by David M. Drucker

President Trump is poised to launch his 2020 reelection as popular with Hispanic voters as other Republicans, bucking predictions that provocative nationalist rhetoric and hard-line border policies would crater his support with this critical bloc.

When Trump, four years ago Saturday, descended the escalator to the lobby of his iconic New York skyscraper and announced his first campaign, he riffed that Mexicans "with lots of problems," including rapists, were crossing the southern border. Many Republicans, establishment and otherwise, were mortified. They fretted that nominating Trump, never mind electing him, would permanently doom the GOP with Hispanics.

It hasn’t worked out that way. Available polling consistently shows Hispanic support for the president at around 30% — about the same as it has been for many Republican politicians post-George W. Bush and pre-Trump. Indeed, Some party insiders focused on improving Hispanic support for the GOP now contend that he has room to grow with this cohort in next election.

Dan Bongino, I think, and he would certainly explode a few heads. The problem with any of those people is not that they wouldn’t explode heads, but that they are their own people, with their own opinions and ideas. That makes them less than ideal spokesmen for someone else.

Signs can be made.

“Are you a legal citizen and happen to be Hispanic? Vote Trump and keep your jobs and paychecks, like the rest of America!”

Another sign:

Attention Hispanic Men - Democrats want you to wear dresses and pay reparations to blacks.
