Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’s (R) policy of shipping migrants from the border to left-leaning jurisdictions has been a winner in the GOP — but it could cost him at home with key Latino constituencies.

The push by GOP governors to transport migrants from border states comes amid a surge in migration from Venezuela, Cuba and Nicaragua, a trio of Latin American countries with left-leaning authoritarian leaders.

The numbers say the opposite, but the Marxist kiddies at The Hill are building one of their fact-free narratives.

Hard to believe that any Floridian would want the illegal aliens disrupting their local economy and swamping their law enforcement resources.

My experience has been that Hispanics hate illegal entry, they have to compete with the fact illegals will work for less pay, don’t have insurance which lowers bidding on projects, etc.

I dub this a red herring.

Baloney. I’m Latino and I think it was brilliant. His point was clearly made and the hypocrisy of the Left was exposed. The illegal immigrants themselves were not harmed or humiliated in any way.

Good news is that the illegals will work for less and will displace existing folks in the work force. That would generally include those at the bottom of the economic ladder. Those who are displaced can go on welfare and will learn that they never should have left the liberal plantation by getting a job in the first place. That will also ensure that they vote for Democrats next time.

I might’ve had eight of them on my roof on Friday replacing it. They did a fantastic job. Course I have no idea if they’re legal or not. They work for the roofing company so who knows. I just have two that spoke English which was great because most people around here don’t have that luxury. They talk with her hands or point or whatever to communicate.

But clearly it's not because if it was, they'd say that.

If Latino voters were bailing on conservative candidates, Deep State wouldn’t have to steal elections, would it...

Anyone who has worked hard (or still working hard) to get their legal citizenship is pissed about thousands being allowed a pass. Same with the idiotic college bailout.
