    Hispanics stick with Trump despite tough border stance

    President Trump is poised to launch his 2020 reelection as popular with Hispanic voters as other Republicans, bucking predictions that provocative nationalist rhetoric and hard-line border policies would crater his support with this critical bloc.


    When Trump, three years ago Saturday, descended the escalator to the lobby of his iconic New York skyscraper and announced his first campaign, he riffed that Mexicans "with lots of problems," including rapists, were crossing the southern border. Many Republicans, establishment and otherwise, were mortified. They fretted that nominating Trump, never mind electing him, would permanently doom the GOP with Hispanics.


    It hasn’t worked out that way. Available polling consistently shows Hispanic support for the president at around 30% — about the same as it has been for many Republican politicians post-George W. Bush and pre-Trump. Indeed, Some party insiders focused on improving Hispanic support for the GOP now contend that he has room to grow with this cohort in next election.



    “He starts in a much better place for reelection than when he launched his 2016 campaign,” said Daniel Garza, a Bush administration veteran who runs the Libre Initiative, a Koch network group that encourages Hispanics to embrace conservative policies. “One would think immigration would be a major anchor for him, but he’s turned it into at least a push,” he said, suggesting his policies would neither harm nor help the president.

    Yeah Trump will end up with more than 30% of Latinos. Hispanic will be over 30%. Then the other Latinos. Apparently the Lame Stream and their pollsters will be missing that until to late.

    Meaning the Republicans still don't get a majority of the Hispanic vote, no matter what.
    Freedom Requires Obstinance.

    We the People DID NOT vote in a majority Rodent Congress, they stole it via election fraud.

    According to the article in Wednesday’s Real Clear Politics, Hispanics Americans are polling between 45% and 50% in support of Donald Trump. This is based on polls from January through March of this year.


    While the growth in support for Trump is impressive it’s not surprising. Many Hispanic cultures put a high emphasis on hard work and entrepreneurship, so it’s logical for Hispanic American voters to favor a tax-cutting president.


    According to Cortes, “Hispanics neither desire nor expect a laundry list of deliverables from the government, but rather seek the conditions to advance and prosper independently. As the most statistically entrepreneurial demographic in America, Hispanics have thrived amid the Trump boom as regulatory and tax relief unleashes a small business surge. Every American benefit from this new dynamism, but Hispanics most of all. For example, the Hispanic jobless rate has now been below 5% for the last 11 months; prior to the Trump presidency, it had only been below 5% for one month ever (in 2006). In addition, jobs are paying more. Wage growth has finally ramped higher for all Americans, but especially for Hispanics, who now welcome wage growth far above workers on the whole. The American manufacturing renaissance drives much of this resurgence, as on-shoring, better trade deals, and rising optimism made 2018 the best year for factory jobs since the 1990s.”


    Lastly, Latinos are largely conservative in matters of faith and religion as well. Creating gravitas toward the pro-life position on hot-button issues like abortion as well.

    True, Trump's approval with Hispanics has ticked up around 10% or so. Doesn't necessarily translate to votes.

    A new POLITICO/Morning Consult poll found Trump’s approval rebounding to 45 percent overall, with Hispanic approval jumping sharply—to 42 percent, after bottoming out at 22 percent on January 21. That result, like the early Marist number, suffers from a high margin of error. A more conservative rolling average puts the figure at around 35 percent.

    That doesn’t necessarily translate into votes, Lee Miringoff, director of the Marist Institute for Public Opinion. His poll found that only 27 percent of Hispanics said that they definitely plan to vote for Trump in 2020, with 58 percent definitely voting against him. Still, a definite 27 percent, if accurate, is equal to the percentage of Hispanic voters who chose Trump in 2016 (28 percent), or Mitt Romney over Barack Obama in 2012 (27 percent), or Republicans in the 2018 congressional midterms (29 percent).

    Perhaps, but that's only because 3-5 million illegals will be voting in 2020.

    Sounds low.

    Donnie the Dimwit keeps encouraging them to come; we'll be up to 25-30 million by August.

    Well they might want to move out of the Demos sanctuary cities and states. The Deviate Demos will just keep encouraging them to come. Then will do like California and give the illegals free health care. That those legal immigrants will end up paying for the illegals along with citizens.

    All those illegals flocking here know that the Demos will give them all kinds of free $#@!. Know that the Demos will obstruct ICE, will keep the border open for them.
