Goya CEO: 'Destruction and hatred, tearing down businesses' driving Latinos to Trump
Just the News ^ | September 2, 2020 - 12:03am | By Carrie Sheffield

Democratic strategist Chuck Rocha, a Latino activist and author of the book "Tio Bernie," served as a Bernie 2020 senior advisor. Rocha on Twitter warned his fellow Democrats cynical about the strong Latino voices onstage at the Republican National Convention last week.

"Democrats, dismiss what your seeing in the Republican convention at your own peril," Rocha wrote. "I have seen and done research with persuadable Latinos voters that confirms what your seeing does cut into the margins. And your woke white consultants aren't going to save us. #thatsmyseat"

The rise in support for Trump is due to "fatigue over all the destruction and hatred, tearing down businesses, by people — a lot of people that are from outside the community — because if you're within the community, you're building it, you don't want to tear down what you just built," Robert Unanue, President and CEO, Goya Foods, told Just the News in a video interview.

"And this is organized. People coming in from the outside to destroy. And so you know, we have two paths to take: Love and build, hate and destroy. We need to take the path of loving and building. And that's why we're looking at prosperity. How do we get our country back on our feet, and prosper in all aspects. So let's love. Let's build."

So they were looking for prosperity, again. So the United States has been ... the bastion and has put out the welcome wagon for immigrants all over the world. So they're coming here to seek that prosperity. And that prosperity is not accomplished if we're going to tear things down, cancel things down, destroy. That's just not what the immigrant community wants to do. The immigrant community are builders, and they want to prosper."

That Goya CEO better watch what he says.

AOC might start another boycott, and from what I gather Goya’s production resources have already been strained due to the massive consumer demand the last Progressive boycott caused.

Latinos also tend to think that “It’s all so tiresome.” While those communities come with their own sets of problems, they are not down with BLM rioting in the streets.

LOL! And CEO says, “I’m not tired of winning. I can’t take any more winning! We’re running out of product! Thank you, Mister President.”

They’ve only gotten a good selection of Goya products back on the shelves in the past couple of weeks here in NM.

I just bought 12 boxes of their Spanish rice and 6 boxes of their seafood paella—all good stuff!

That's probably true of virtually all legal immigrants and some illegal immigrants, but a lot of illegal immigrants just want the freebies.

I'm not against immigration, but we need an orderly system, not chaos, allowing people in who are makers, not takers.

Spoiled white suburban kiddies who join ANTIFA and proceed to trash the hood are wearing thin on the patience of Blacks and Latinos apparently.

"we have two paths to take: Love and build, hate and destroy."

What this election is about, in one sentence.

Note to self: pick up some more Goya products (We tried them, in order to support the buy-cott-They are really good).

Very good point.

In many parts of America, the future is going to be an endless conflict between lifetime-welfare blacks and recent immigrants who simply don't give a sh!t about their endless complaints.

Their rice mixes can be cooked in a zojirushi rice cooker, just add water and a lump of butter and push the button. No fuss.

Si as Goya, tiene que ser bueno.

During the last buycott I convinced Mrs Chajin to try Goya’s arroz amarillo (yellow rice). She likes it much better than the other brands; she has become a loyal Goyista.

I keep looking for their products at my local Kroger and they tell me it sells out as fast as it comes in. Goya has picked up a bunch of new loyal customers thanks to AOC.

I’ve tried their kidney beans and they were well worth the price. Can’t wait to try more of their products.
