    Don’t forget that the Latino vote for Trump went from 25% to 45%.

    The dumb bastards voted themselves into being deported and don’t think Stephen Miller is going to have a soft spot for people here legally.

    Hes gonna come for them all.

      It blows my mind. But it’s the reality. In an ideal world every minority should be against Trump. But this isn’t the world we live in. There is a huge amount of immigrants who are coming from ultra conservative society.

      Some latino who are well established will happily kick the ladder so that other can’t come in.

      So it’s not super surprising. Homophobia and racism isn’t only a white people’s thing.

        For real. ~45% of them deserve to be round up into camps or deported. That’s what they voted for, after all.

          *the monkeys paw curls

          45% of the Latino population in the us that voted for Harris are deported. Or they just somehow sink Puerto Rico.

      There’s a lot of christian fundamentalists among them too, and I think the “sitting out of it” could have affected that demographic too.

      This is sort of beside the point you’re making, but a lot of 1st/2nd generation Latinos still look down on immigrants. “We did it the hard way, so they should have to as well” similar to bootstrap mentality.

      It’s some real mental gymnastics, but I’ve had several latina girlfriends over the years and some of their families were poor or super well off, but they openly hated Mexicans and/or Puerto Ricans.

      That number isn’t really that surprising.

        Aaaah Cuban expats. Welcomed with open arms often getting to jump the line. So much hardship. So much effort. So much privilege and entitlement.

      Well technically I don’t think you can vote to deport yourself since you need to be a citizen to vote federally.

      Now voting to have your friends and family removed, now we’re cooking!
