Ed Lavandera: Many Latino Immigrants Come from Countries with Really, Evil, Dangerous Leaders and See Trump as Far Less Harmful
EXCERPT:
LAVANDERA: “Yeah, he used to be a Democrat, voted for the Clintons, for Clinton, and voted for Barack Obama and then eventually became a Trump supporter. But you know, the radio guys told us something interesting. He said a lot of younger Latino male voters are very disengaged from politics and really what they know about Donald Trump is that he’s a celebrity businessman and don’t really pay attention or remember the history of Trump’s first term. And another thing that’s important to point out and this is really fascinating, Erin, is that many Latino immigrants come from countries where they have truly evil, dangerous political leaders. And so, because of coming from that and experiencing that, they view the American political system and Donald Trump as far less harmful.”
