Chuck Todd: ‘How Many Different Ways Does the Republican Party Want to Alienate Hispanics?’

‘This is going to be the reason Hispanics don’t support this president?’

RUSH EXCERPT:

TODD: “This is going to be the reason Hispanics don't support this president? I mean, you look at the census. I'll say this when you combine the census fight and his gloating about ICE raids, I know he does this for base stoking. We keep saying this, but how many different ways does the Republican Party want to alienate Hispanics. This feels like -- Pete Wilson would blush at this when you think about what happened in 1994 in California, the famous Prop-187 that basically turned California to a swing state to a blue state because of the way the Republican Party was seen as the party that was Hispanics and against immigration.”

MITCHELL: “Former governor and former senator Pete Wilson, a Republican.”

TODD: “What do we think the Hispanic vote is going to look like in a decade by party with what’s happening. This may short term allow the president to keep that base fired up, but the long term damage to the Republican Party with—it looks like a target campaign to alienate Hispanics away from the Trump version of the Republican Party.”
