Biden Campaign to Latinos: Yeah, We Don't Need You to Beat Trump

Former Vice President Joe Biden's campaign is coming under fire for their Latino outreach efforts or rather lack thereof. As more than 32 million Latinos are expected to vote in November, Biden's campaign has failed to rectify the Obama administration's tough deportation policies for illegal aliens, POLITICO reported.

Instead of attempting to reach out and form a relationship with this group of voters, Biden's campaign appears to be turning a blind eye to Latinos, at least that's what Democratic operatives believe.

"I do not think that the Biden campaign thinks that Latinos are part of their path to victory," Jess Morales Rocketto, the former digital organizing director for Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign, told POLITICO.

According to The Week, more than 20 Democratic operatives believe Hispanics are vital to Biden's success this November, especially in states like Arizona and Texas that could be flipped. But the operatives don't see outreach efforts or any kind of ground game from the Biden campaign. The Wuhan coronavirus pandemic has made that outreach even more difficult.

Well heck yeah. Nothing like telling possible supporters they don't mean squat to you or your campaign. DOH! And, of the 32 million latinos, how many are legal? Then again I suppose it isn't restricted to latinos eh?

He’s very confident now, because he’s pretty much locked up the dead vote. They are legion.

Biden should only go after the minority tranny vote.

This is the same overconfidence that doomed Hillary. Plus I think Joe doesn’t really want this. He became the lead candidate by default because no one wants to lose to Trump.

What is this baloney about the Obama administration’s draconian deportation procedures for illegals?

No. The Obama policy was to arrest millions.
Count them as arrested.
Then release them into the streets, with “promise” to return for sentencing and actual deportation hearings.
Later.
And the hearings and deportation never happened. Because the illegals were smart enough not to show up!

Obama was nicknamed “Deporter in chief”.

Latinos and Latinas are voting for Trump. Biden and his fellow Democrats want to unleash illegal alien criminals on their communities, to shutter their businesses, to disband their churches, and to slaughter their children, leaving them to starve in the cold. Many of them or their ancestors escaped Communist regimes; they do not want to live in an American version of Venezuela. Oh, and he’s a part of the colossally corrupt Clinton crime machine.

Trump on the other hand tries to incarcerate and to deport the foreign criminals. He encourages their businesses with low taxes and high wages. He welcomes open churches with large crowds. And he works every day to save and to defend the lives of innocent children, whatever their race and ethnicity. He strongly and uncompromisingly opposes Communism in all its manifestations here and abroad. He also recognizes and follows the Constitution, and he is not corrupt, which explains why Democrats want to oust him.

Legal Latino’s don’t want cheap labor flooding in the U.S. either.
It will negatively affect their income too.

Well, part of Biden’s problem is that he doesn’t have an amusing anecdote where he avoids a beat-down from a “bad hombre” with a disarming apology. He needs to make one up.

That's actually smart. Anyone who thinks that American Latinos are in favor of illegal immigration needs to stop reading CNN poles.

Yes, but how is Biden supposed to “rectify” that? That sentence made no sense to me.

"What is this baloney about the Obama administration’s draconian deportation procedures for illegals?"

You are absolutely correct, and I'm surprised this lie isn't challenged every time it's mentioned. Obama achieved his "legendary" deportation numbers by changing the definition of "deport" to include illegals who are simply turned away at the border, which is an overwhelming number.

High deportation figures are misleading
