The former president captured 55% of Latino voters in the state, according to exit polls. He also won 14 out of the 18 counties within 20 miles of the border, a number that doubled his 2020 performance in the Latino-majority region.
The trees voted for the axe because its handle was made of wood.
Pretty soon…
“The
formerpresident captured 55% of Latinos in the state, according to Fox News…”Maybe “just” 45%, the ones who didn’t vote for him.
That suggests he gives a shit about what happens to his voters. I think it’s been clear for a long time now that he doesn’t.
They are going to get a very unhappy surprise if a cop stops them and they either don’t have an ID or the cops decide it’s not authentic (or says it’s stolen).
An angle I read on this, is most likely the ones who are citizens (and allowed to vote) were affluent enough to emigrate legitimately and don’t want illegal poor people coming over. Latinos in Americas tend to be more conservative/ perhaps religious? I am told.
The biggest takeaway from the election so far for me (the votes are still being counted), it doesn’t look like trump got any new votes, he lost something like 1-2 mil from last time but the main issue is that Harris lost 15mil voters.
“I got mine, fuck you” is at the core of Republican ideology.
So after having a Democrat president that opened the borders, the only area to vote Democrat was the only area that has a well-staffed Border Patrol presence (El Paso / Ciudad Juarez) easily explains this. I don’t understand how people are quick to embrace crazy racist narratives instead of the simple one, other than those pushing that story are the racists or seek to divide Americans.
