No more so than any other non democrat. At least not in any number worth speaking about.

Yes because they are increasingly having friction with Hispanics.

Promises to “send them all home” resonate with large segments of the Black community.

I think some be surprised that resonates well with Hispanic Americans, like myself and my family, as well.

It wasn't long ago I was in a retail store and this illegal immigrant with his family and he was talking loud and boisterous throughout the store in Spanish. He had the nerve to come up to me talking all loud in Spanish like I was supposed to be in his corner or something.

I'm telling you, It took everything I had to bite my tongue and just walked away. I'm sure he yelled plenty of expletives at me for being rude but I so wanted to tell him how rude he was being, for having the gall to be in this country and expect us all to speak Spanish. Blame the left for emboldening these people.

If blacks are dumb enough to elect her then they deserve another 8 years of Obama-style misery.

Are you ever out to lunch.

I was out with friends the other day and three out of four of my Hispanic friends are ardent supporters of Trump, and I didn’t even bring him up. They did, and they wouldn’t stop raving about him.

I drove one guy home and for 1 hour and 15 minutes he explained to me what illegal immigration has done to our region.

Your mindset is strictly GOPe. It’s outmoded, wrong headed, and actually racist to think these folks can’t distinguish between right and wrong, legal and illegal, and what the right thing to do about it is.

On top of that, it is their neighborhoods that are ravaged by crime, slum conditions, falling property values, and unfair competition to take their jobs.

Why is this so hard for some folks to grasp?

Well said!

The mistake folks make when thinking of the Hispanic vote, is that we have to receive a majority of it to win. We don’t.

If we traditionally get 10% and squeak a close victory out of it, what happens when we get 25%? We deprive the Left of it, add it to our win column and eek out a larger victory.

Trump is showing well compared to normal standing in both the Black and Hispanic communities. Sure some hate him. Heck, there are plenty of White folks who do. Some right her on this forum do.

Not so much, no. Romney got 27% of the Hispanic vote in 2012. He lost.

Trump is showing well compared to normal standing in both the Black and Hispanic communities.

What polls are you using as your source?

In the general election Trump should make an issue of current child support laws that seek to recoup welfare payments from fathers with no regard to their actual ability to pay. Long term unemployed owe huge child support bills that they can never pay back, and just go to the government, not to their children. And when they can’t pay they go to jail. It’s a huge issue in the black community and nobody talks about it.

Focusing on the immigration taking away jobs for poor blacks, yes.
The session where he had a black father talking about his son killed by an illegal alien, yes.

“Millions of blacks are beginning to figure out just what the communists Democratic Party has done for them.”

I wonder how many of them are even aware that the KKK was started by Democrats. Not many, I fear.

Alcohol, maybe. Indoctrination, definitely.

Ha!  I'm a big Omarosa fan.  I think having Omarosa allied to Trump might be worth 1 or 2% of the black vote -- my hunch.

I’m not using any polls as my source.

I’m still telling you what I have observed first hand.

What first hand experiences have you had?

Doing some research I was surprised to see that she has become an ordained Baptist minister.

Maybe Faux should start doing some research before ‘reporting’.

They never learn.

I think Trump has done fine with Hispanics-at least here-native born Texans of Hispanic ancestry like myself, and US citizens who were legal immigrants are mostly Republican voters, with no liking for mojados at all. In rural areas few are Hispanic and Democrat, other than maybe a handful in the old areas of 60’s LBJ corruption right on the border. Many cities crawl with liberal democrats of all races-another reason why I don’t live in one.

Out here, the population is almost evenly divided as to the number of Anglos and Hispanics-there is a small population of Blacks, a few Asian families, even fewer from India and Pakistan-and they are 2nd generation Americans. There isn’t even an organized Democrat organization in this county-no point in it...
