Interesting Portents of Shifting Alliances - Hispanicos & Black Nation

Nothing but an anecdote, but I was driving through a largely lower middle class predominantly Hispanic neighborhood yesterday and noticed quite a few Cruz and Trump signs.

Gen Z are going to be a fascinating voting bloc for the next 20 years.

Another big rally today. A speaker made a joke about he and his “black friend” carving watermelons last night. This is awesome. I hope Donald and his surrogates continue to milk their first amendment freedoms, because libz and all that.

Trump surrogate at his “rally” today, trying to gotv of the Hispanic community

Trump rally speaker: “And these Latinos, they love making babies too. Just know that. They do. They do. There’s no pulling out. They don’t do that. They come inside. Just like they did to our country.”

Surrogate? Is he having Trump’s baby? He made stupid jokes at a meeting, that’s all. Hopefully not asked back.

This won’t effect a single thing but jokes at a meeting is some fun minimization.

Calling him a Trump surrogate is some kind of maximization, but that doesn’t seem to bother you.

FreeAndClear · 2024-10-28T13:56:46.417Z

He is def not a Trump surrogate. It was also not a meeting.

It’s not as if you countered the hyperbole over a a bad joke that barely anyone laughed at with a sensible response by referencing that it was a bad joke that barely anyone laughed at

Nope it was some jokes at a meeting. See the difference?

DougBH · 2024-10-28T13:58:27.697Z

Fine. I can live with it was a bad joke at a raly that hardly anyone there laughed at…but Democrats loved.

And the best part is that the campaign didn’t even need to vet it because they knew nobody is going to pay attention to it even if used as fodder.

They had to come up with something to try and put down a magnificent rally at Maga Square Garden.

Kamala and her supporters are Flailing at this point and know it.

You bet they are. I really don’t like this part of the election cycle towards the end when the spaghetti throwing at the wall begins.

They will not get anything from the election. It’ll be the same thing racism and misogyny, not we could have looked across the Atlantic and watch leaders fall one by one because of inflation and immigration. But no it can’t be that.

It’s just like the Springfield Ohio story with all the Haitians that have totally overwhelmed the town the only story they got from that whole thing is “Trump said they’re eating dogs - racist.”

I really do hope they are mass deportations, if they win both houses and don’t do that, I won’t listen to another Republican again.

I don’t know, your side seems to be willing to lose elections for illegals so as long as one side is not willing to enforce laws (other than Martha’s Vineyard) the other side is going to pick it up as and issue

I’m not alone. I miss the left wanting to give Medicare to all instead of just trying to change the demographic makeup of the U.S. at any cost.

The Hill – 18 Sep 24

54 percent of Americans back mass deportation of immigrants: Poll

A new poll has found that more than half of all Americans support the mass deportation of undocumented immigrants, with a large number of Democrats also supporting the effort.

“About 54 percent of respondents — 86 percent of Republicans, 58 percent of independents and 25 percent of Democrats — said they “strongly” or “somewhat” support a wide-scale effort to deport millions of immigrants, and 59 percent said they are closely following the “immigration situation at the U.S.-Mexico border.”

The survey also found that 39 percent of respondents named immigration a top issue for them this election year — second only to inflation.”

mass deportations is just a pipe dream, along with all the other cockamamie ideas suggested by trump (no income taxes, mexico will pay for the wall etc).

just really bad ideas.

mass deportations will devastate the economy and cost billions to implement.

So you think those brought in over the last three and a have years are what is keeping our economy growing? It would be a boon to the economy to be rid of them.
