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.”

    The fact that any of them voted for him is astounding. Did they not listen to a single word from his mouth about hordes of immigrants watering down the blood of America? Did they not see him drag a Hispanic celebrity (Nicky Jam) on stage, only to reveal, before the entire audience that he had no idea who they were, and in fact thought they were a hot woman?

    Like a bunch of turkeys counting down the days to Christmas.

    Doesn’t really matter what they think of him now, they’ll be in an El Salvador concentration camp by the time the next election comes round.

      They, like most people who voted for Trump were more interested in harming “the opposition” failing to realize 90% of people were the opposition despite Trump saying it loud and proud. As a liberal white millionaire I am still confused and concerned at how many idiots I am trying to lift up are encasing their feet in concrete, and a little voice says “maybe it’s their nature and you should give them what they ask for.”

      I’m disgusted by this all around, don’t turn me into what I fucking hate.
