        Latinos themselves are not a very cohesive group.

        Many are die-hard Catholics. Many fled from Cuba and will vote against anything that looks like communism.

        But that’s far from all Latinos, or even all Cuban immigrants.

        It’s important to not lump everyone together.

          hm, that makes sense with what i’ve heard so far, so i guess that shouldn’t surprise me.

          i guess i’m probably just most confused by the fact that people would vote for trump at all lol

            You, me. The entire sane world.

            It’s truly perplexing why most these people would vote for the guy. Or even donate to his political campaign since he brags about not needing donations…(and his lawyers fees… yesh.)

        With the Hispanic people I know that prefer Trump, it’s the usual trumpist/Republican reasoning. Even down to anti-immigration, from a person who’s father was an undocumented immigrant. Propaganda and desire to be in the in-group among your peers is wild.

        I have no idea. Fear of “socialism”? Religion? The myth that republicans are good for small business owners?
