They unite temporarily to defeat a common enemy, the Americans. Hispanics want to recreate their homelands whether it is Mexico, El Salvador, Honduras or someplace else.It looks like hispanic voters are turning out to vote in gigantic numbers according to early voting. They've been a growing voting block and because of trump's castigation of Mexicans and 'immigrants' he has mobilized what appears to have been another sleeping giant.
The worst news for Republicans is this will likely carry forward. Once this voting block sees they CAN make a difference and that voting does give them power their participation in elections will continue to grow.
We are just at apogee of Republicans being able to win elections with their platform of exclusion. Poor and middle class whites can no longer carry the day, even with them listening to Faux News 24/7. Republicans will have to change, the worst of all possible words to a conservative. Change.
The racial breakdown of the country is roughly 73% white, 15% hispanic, 12% black, and <1% all other races and groups. So it will be decades, if ever, before whites would be outnumbered in the population. But conservative whites that are afraid of all non-whites are dropping off fast.
This year though looks to be the year hispanics formally take their place in the electorate and find their voice. Conservatives you know the one person you have to thank for this. Send him a card.
So, we can't have a real discussion about immigration and the costs and risks to American society because it will offend a demographic that has the Balance of Power in this nation?
Well, that's not a good thing.
You have a large minority that A. does not feel any loyalty to the interests of their fellow citizens and B. are in a position to harm those interests with no possible political or legal redress from the majority of the nation.
Hispanics have no loyalty to other hispanics either.
They are voting in a pretty good bloc.
Not like blacks, but, still, a bloc.
