MSNBC’s DeFrancesco Soto: Trump Could Get 30 Percent of the Latino Vote in November

BRZEZINSKI: "Victoria, you’ve got to piece up for nbcnews.com in which you explain why Trump will get 25, maybe 30 percent of the Latino vote in November. I’ve said this before, haven’t really been able to actually put my finger on why, but I believe he will get Latino support. Can you explain?”
DEFRANCESCO SOTO: “Yeah, a couple of reasons, Mika. First of all the Latino electorate is not a monolith. I mean while the majority of Latinos identify or lean with the Democratic Party, the biggest chunk of Latinos are independents. They’re a little bit more socially and fiscally conservative. So I think that is the sweet spot for Donald Trump. And just recently we’ve seen Donald Trump in a recent video addressed to the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference talk about how unfair it is that Latinos are living in high-crime rates. That minority unemployment needs to be addressed. So I think that that’s his in with Latinos. In addition to that, I think his tone is going to change."
