MODERATORS
 

Notable majority feel the country is headed in the wrong direction, and only 27% approve of his job performance

Donald Trump’s standing with Hispanic adults has dropped notably since he took office at the start of the year, according to a new poll.

Polling by the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research suggests growing unease among a voting bloc that was crucial to his 2024 re-election victory. The October survey shows that 25% of Hispanic adults now hold a “somewhat” or “very” favorable view of Trump, down sharply from 44% in an AP-NORC poll conducted just before he began his second term.

At the same time, the share of Hispanic respondents who believe the nation is headed in the wrong direction has risen from 63% in March to 73% in October.

Citizens are getting harassed and brutalized by ICE. Prices are skyrocketing and unemployment is surging. The approval rating should be much lower.

Don't get it twisted, white Latinos voted for exactly that, delusionally thinking that the only ones who would be harassed and deported were Latinos less white than them. They're only opposed more because they found out that the WASPs didn't consider them white the hard way.

Yup. Shit got pretty bad under Covid as it was. But I can see that happening next, although I doubt blacks are going to be overlooked... I suppose all the attacks on DEI and trying to get universities and companies to change all their hiring and teaching policies is part of it already.

alot of them turned to trump over covid. University have thier own problems way before the pandemic, covid just worsened it. low job prospects, causing enrollment issues(at least for state universities in cali), example for stem not much resources going to expanding lab works for bio students, which is the most important part of the degree anyways, bad advice from overworked professors that are reluctant to "advise"students. university problems are a symptom of a much larger problem.(trump+ covid definitely unraveled it more). the state uni i went to sources quite alot of students from a nearby CCollege(which decided that to make thier core classes equivalent to what berkely UC wanted, and you can see the fallout of that directive, if you were to take a equivalent course at any other state, you wont face the same difficulty as of that CCollege courses(mostly stem, and english)

Which I really don't get. We're called WASP for a reason. It's not just because it's "white Anglo Saxon protestant" it's because we're scary in any amount.

Like shit, I'm far more terrified of other WASPs than any other categories of people.

(Well, ok I guess technically I'm not protestant anymore, but I consider being raised that way enough.)

I went to high school in the mountains of WNC and we had a few Cuban families and They still live in the west of Asheville area and they a hardcore MAGAites to the point of them endorsing P2025 to my face at a big class reunion about a year and a half ago. I saw one of them a about 3 months ago and he was still going on about getting all the illegals out of here. I understand his parents came here to get away from Castro but they want to pull up the ladder behind them. The Hmong are the same. I live in a big Hong area now and fuck me they are fucking rabidly conservatives Trump voters.
