Yes. It's always been about 30% of the Latino votes goes R. This time it could be more as I read
here there are more than a dozen Latino candidates running for congress as R. So if they drive voter turnout, they could vote upticket for Trump.
And sadly, I've said this before, old immigrants crap on new immigrants. FYIGM. I believe that while Latinos may sympathize with illegal immigrants and favor a path to citizenship for those already here, large majorities agree with Trump’s policies regarding law and order at the border.
And finally, Latinos also crap on the Blacks. For most of Trump's term, his racism was focused on Latinos, so Latinos were more likely to be opposed to him. But I think the focus on Black Lives this past few months will lead to more Latino opposition to Democrats.
