Am I annoyed? You betcha.
 
Josh Zaragoza Latino Political Strategist and Trump Supporter:
“But a lot of Latino voters are focused on ‘I’m a hardworking American trying to feed my family or build a business."

Most middle class and working class Americans are hardworking and doing their best to feed their families or building a business. So, it's a lame-ass excuse for voting for a sociopathic grifer, misogynist pig, pedophile racist shitsack.

Donny's managed to convince Latino voters that those other brown people just want to freeload off the government. You know, the darker brown people.

Or its truly how they feel???

Both of you should stop talking about Latino voters like they all think the same. Fact is the Trumpers convinced an absolute minority of them. But more that before, and it represents a great job of wedging off Democratic votes.

There are big divisions in the Hispanic population before Trump came on the scene.

One of the telling irony that I have personally observed: Established Hispanics, have a general disdain for newly arrived such as Guatemalans and Southern Mexicans. The claim is that the new ones work for a pittance.

Met some Mexicans once in Queens NY who did not speak Spanish and were not well received by the rest.

Puerto Ricans and Dominicans have some rivalry. Cubans are often Republicans. They feel that JFK did not support them fully at the Bay of Pigs.
Venezuelans also lean heavily Republican. Many of them claim that Biden is a soc;list. WTF

Once again, the size of one's wallet is a lame ass excuse for wanting a sociopathic grifter, misogynist pig, pedophile, racist in the Oval Office.

Cuban Republicans in Florida aren't invested in this country. The moment they see the opportunity to wrest control of Cuba from the current government, you won't see the majority of those who can afford it, for the dust.

The Puerto Rican population in this country...how long ago was it that 3,000 Puerto Ricans down on Puerto Rico were dying of starvation, dying of disease, dying of injuries, dying in the streets, dying on remote hillsides in the aftermath of Hurricane Maria, because Donald Trump was pissed off at Mayor of San Juan. How soon they forget, eh?

Our disgust for Trump supporters should not be limited to christian white supremacists.

You're absolutely right. They shouldn't be thought of that way. Just like any other ethnic group is not some monolithic entity. I fell right into that one.
That "wedging off", it's called the ol' divide and conquer.
