A new survey finds Harris substantially ahead of Trump among Latinos, a sign that she may be rebuilding the Democratic coalition—which is essential to defeating him.
I agree to an extent. I think many times, as humans are wont to do, they self-select themselves into different communities. Most of the South Americans I’ve met here are rabidly Mormon and will cluster together, avoiding non-Mormon latino communities.
There’s definitely a generational difference where I live among the Mexicans.
The over 40 ones are mostly conservative and wear pro-gun paraphernalia and have Trump stickers, and also speak little to no English. Which is sad because Trump and his kind would deport them or put them into labor camps without hesitation.
The younger ones, some of whom are recent immigrants themselves, pretty much all lean towards the left. Especially the women. Most of the latinas under 40 I work with would probably punch a man who told them they should be making babies and sandwiches.
I am definitely not Latino but because I speak Spanish (Mexico) and Portuguese (Brazil), I get to participate in conversations and make friends with more of my coworkers.
