Trump Gets Staggering News From Hispanic Voters Changes Entire Race

http://conservativetribune.com/trump-ne ... ic-voters/

After his comments about America’s unsecured border and illegal immigration, the media roundly assumed that Donald Trump would get almost no support from the Hispanic community.

So, imagine the surprise of the mainstream media when a recent poll revealed that the candidate with the most support amongst Latino voters was … Donald Trump.

The latest survey from Public Policy Polling showed Trump with a 34 percent favorability rating among Hispanics, highest among all of the Republican candidates. Pro-amnesty candidate Jeb Bush was second at 31 percent.

Trump even scored higher than two candidates of Latino descent: Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, whose father was a Cuban immigrant, scored only 30 percent, while Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida, both of whose parents were Cuban, scored 29 percent.

And one of the most pro-illegal candidates — Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey, who offered in-state tuition to illegal immigrants in the Garden State — came in near the bottom at 21 percent. Only Ben Carson and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee scored lower, both with 16 percent.

Trump caused a great deal of stir when he told reporters he would “win the Hispanic vote” during a campaign stop in Laredo, Texas this week (H/T The Gateway Pundit).

And while most every other candidate has tried to give noncommittal answers to questions about illegal immigration, Trump has made his position on the matter unequivocal.

“Illegal immigrants are causing tremendous problem(s) coming in,” Trump said during an appearance on MSNBC. “There’s crime. It’s a crime wave. It’s a disaster. The problem we’re having with Mexico is that their government officials and negotiators are far smarter than ours, like from a different planet … We are getting the short end of the stick in every single instance.”

He added: “Mexico is sending a lot of their people over that they don’t want. And that includes people that should be in Mexican prisons and you know it and I know it and nobody wants to talk about it.”

Why would Latino voters be supporting Trump? Maybe it’s because they know something the liberal mainstream media doesn’t want to admit: Trump is telling the truth about illegal immigration, and Hispanics don’t like it any more than Trump does.

Do you have anything going for you other than constantly calling everyone names and making false accusations? Are you running for president of the clueless? Generally 60% or more of the Latino consistently vote for Demoncraps. At the site linked below you will see the information on bar graphs. Can you read bar graphs? Educate yourself instead of blurting out those name calling moronic spews.

Answer this:

If the Latino population generally vote for the repukes, then why are demoncraps so insistent as to letting so many illegals into the country and why are there so many demoncraps trying to make it legal for them to vote? So that they can elect repukicans? Like duh, that's a hard one isn't it? I know, you hate facts and common sense.


Why are the demoncraps so insistent on making sure you can not distinguish legal voters from illegal voters through their "No ID required to vote initiatives? So that the illegals can vote for repukicans? Like duh, that's another hard one to answer.. Those lousy truths sure mess up a hypothesis.

And your brilliant deduction from these facts is "so they will vote for repukicans?" All those facts and no way to process them. I can see why liberals are so bitter.

You say: "Hispanic people are historically conservative. 34% is a third; that also means 2/3 think he's a bonehead, like the rest of us."

A good many of the 2/3 that don't vote for him will vote demoncrap. Through looking at the charts of past Latino voting I think that is a pretty safe assertion. ( However I will agree with your statement that he's a bonehead like the rest of you.)

Document your voting data with some facts. And try to explain why demoncraps want the illegal voting base so badly if they are going to vote repukican, for the most part.

Hello? Anybody home?

I know everyone is tired of hearing or thinking about the U.S. presidential election, but Latino Decisions has released an interactive website that shows how Latinos/as in the U.S. voted, as well as the issues they found particularly important.

In many of the swing states, Latinos formed an essential part of President Obama’s winning coalition of voters. As you may have heard by now, Latinos voted overwhelmingly Democratic, with about 3/4 voting for President Obama:

But this varied by ancestry. Among Cuban Americans, only 44% supported Obama, while he received 96% of votes cast by Dominican Americans, 78% by Mexican Americans, 83% by Puerto Ricans, 76% by Central Americans, and 79% by South Americans (hover over the graph here to see the %s):

Language also made a difference. Among those who speak primarily English, Obama got 70% of the vote; among those who speak Spanish, it was 83%:

Religion was an even bigger factor. While 81% of Catholic Latinos voted for President Obama, he got a much smaller majority — 54% — among those who identified as born-again Christians:

The website also lets you get specific data on a number of swing states or states with large or growing Latino populations, as well as breakdowns of the issues that Latino voters said were most important to them. It’s an interesting website with a lot of breakdowns, so it’s worth clicking over and looking around.

Yeah... so does the other half of the country that is working to support the other half.

I smell a war coming on that is going to make the isis threat a joke or the last civil war a minor infraction to humanity.

The anger is swelling, Trump may be the key, to return to a REPUBLIC with firm belief in the LAW OF THE LAND.

Without blaming any ONE president or any class year of congress... As a nation we have racked up 18 trillion dollars in national debt. The interest payment on that exceeds our GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCTION.

We are,... as a nation... broke. SAD!
