Democrats Grapple with Plunge in Latino Support

"Why are we losing these people? Why are we losing firefighters? Why are we losing cops? Why are we losing blue collar working men? ... Because we're very consistent in our messaging away from them -- away from their traditional family values, away from their personal economic concerns and their family's economic concerns," said Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes, the highest-ranking Latino elected official in this heavily Latino state. "And that is a hard political pill for Democrats to swallow."

Though Harris greatly improved her standing from where President Joe Biden was with Latinos before he dropped out of the race, the vice president notched just 52 percent support among Latinos, according to exit polls. Biden in 2020 earned 61 percent of Latinos' support, Hillary Clinton carried 66 percent in 2016 and Barack Obama won more than 70 percent in 2012.

Nothing new, and nothing was done. It won't be long before a pile of those 75,000,000 voters realize they really screwed the pooch.

"Why are we losing these people?"

I feel like if I answer this correctly, I'll face negative consequences.

Here's hoping each and every latino who voted for shitler has a loved one deported to Venezuela, whether their Venezuelan or not.

Nothin better than separating 5 year olds from their parents.

Making orphans great again.

Why are we losing these people? Because they are stupid or evil

Why are we losing firefighters? Because they are stupid or evil

Why are we losing cops? Because they are stupid or evil

Why are we losing blue collar working men? Because they are stupid or evil

The problem is not with the democratic party, it's candidates, it's messaging, it's policies.

the problem is with stupid and evil people who vote for a rapist.

the problem is with stupid and evil people who vote for a felon

the problem is with stupid and evil people who vote for a conman

the problem is with stupid and evil people who vote for a thief

the problem is with stupid and evil people who vote for a corrupt piece of shit

Let them eat the ashes of their consequences, Fuck all magat scum

What happens if Venezuela doesn't want them?

And to preempt all the assholes who are going to criticize me for "oh that's great insult them! that is a horrible way to get them to vote for us!

I say fuck em. They are scum, they are evil or stupid. They are not deserving of respect, only contempt.

They will come crawling on their hands and knees begging for a democrat to save them from YET ANOTHER republican economic collapse, war or shitshow.

Let the rapist fuck your wives and daughters, empty your savings account to buy his shitty shoes, give up your healthcare to make Elon Musk richer.

You deserve the shit that is coming for you.

Hehe... an option I suppose. I just wonder if you are going to deport 10+ million people where do you send them?

Anywhere else remember how they hated it when liberals tried to call them latinx? Yeah that's the first hint as to what you people fail to notice.

Why won't the stupid deplorable garbage Nazis vote the way you want? You have learned nothing.

#19 | Posted by visitor_ at 2024-11-08 01:37 AM

Theyre low information voters drowning in a right wing dominated misinformation news cycle of cable news and podcasts.

#20 | Posted by Alexandrite at 2024-11-08 01:54 AM

Exactly. It wasn't the Democrat message or messenger, it was the people. Democrats don't need to reflect and change. The rest of the country needs to get it's mind right. Learn nothing. Change nothing.
