NPR’s Maria Hinojosa: Latinos Know Trump’s Heart Sympathizes with White Supremacists and the KKK

‘He started and ran his entire campaign against immigrants and Mexicans specifically’

RUSH EXCERPT:
HINOJOSA: "I think that Latinos and the immigrants, Ali, at this point know exactly the kind of heart that this president has. So he can say he’s conflicted and has heart. We can’t forget the fact that it was just a couple of days ago that he pardoned Joe Arpaio who specifically was going after Latinos and immigrants. So that’s his heart. His heart is that he was clearly sympathizing with white supremacists and the KKK. His heart is that he started and ran his entire campaign against immigrants and Mexicans specifically. At this point for the DACA people, if they’re hearing him talk about his heart, it’s like they don’t really care. And in terms of the laws, I mean, yeah, it’s about what will be probably a thousand to 1,500 losses, job losses a week at this point. And I think what’s going to happen is going to be really interesting because, yes, there’s a lot of sadness here, but there’s going to be a whole other thing that’s going to happen that whoa don’t know, because remember, DACA was created because of the protests of these young people. They will not be quiet. But you know this, Ali. Their employers are going to come out in their defense, right. Like the young kid who I know who works at bank of America. They don’t want to lose him. What are they going to do? Who are they going to start challenging to keep these young DACA people employed. So I think you’re going to see a whole interesting political shift. And by the way, there is a political argument. This may absolutely be the death nil for the Republican Party."
