Support for Donald Trump among Latinos has plummeted, with many saying they feel betrayed by the Republican president

Summary

Trump’s support among Latinos has plummeted as he nears his first 100 days in office, with many saying they feel betrayed by the scope of his policies, particularly immigration enforcement.

Almost three in four Latinos (72%) now disapprove of the way Trump is handling his job as president.

Many Venezuelans, for example, have been impacted by the decision to revoke their Temporary Protected Status (TPS).

“Today, I feel the same way I felt in Venezuela— that they’re going to come take me somewhere I won’t be able to escape from.” “This is completely different from what I thought it was going to be.”

    Are you talking about 5 year olds? Otherwise I’m pretty sure everyone we’re talking about was on the planet during Trump’s last term.

      Wow it’s awful Brave of you to put yourself out there as an example of the problem I’m trying to illustrate. Thank you for posting this. This is an example 100% of what I’m talking about. The same arrogance, ignorance, and presumption that everyone has the same experience as you. That therefore you are superior to them. You are literally using the conservative/fascist Playbook to ridicule and other these people.

      I’m sure that will win them over to your side. Or make things better. Not.

        that’s a grand stand you’ve put together. bravo.

        I don’t care about winning people so disconnected that living through 4 years of horror didn’t convince them that 4 more years of horror wouldn’t be horrible.

          It’s funny to watch you attack them for being in an echo chamber they didn’t seek. From an echo chamber you did. But I’m glad you can admit that you are dedicated to being the problem. And not the solution. It’s in curiosity and ignorance like that that will help the fascists continue to win. It’s just too much work to ask questions about how and why people behave the way they do. So much easier to just dismiss them as being less intelligent and informed than yourself. Just like they do to you.
