Central Americans are very much conservative, and once they get into the USA they spend a great deal of time making sure their counterparts from their home countries don't get in and have the same opportunities. Ironically, the border security message resonates with a lot of those voters. It's really a strange phenomena.
Cubans and Venezuelans aren’t scared of socialism, they’re scared of communism. And they’re not wrong to be afraid of it.

There’s also been misinformation campaigns on Facebook and Twitter specifically aimed at convincing Latino folks that Biden is a communist.
