Actor John Leguizamo obliterated a small horse piñata while reciting a thorough catalogue of Spanish-language profanities on “The Daily Show” Tuesday in response to a New York Times/Siena poll that reported former President Trump leads President Biden among Latino voters.
Of the poll’s Hispanic respondents, 46 percent they would vote for Trump if the election were held today, and 40 percent said they would vote for Biden.
“You may be thinking, how is this possible? ‘Build the wall’ Donald Trump? ‘Mass deportations’ Donald Trump? ‘Guy who thinks Daddy Yankee is a baseball player’ Donald Trump?” asked Leguizamo, after pummeling the piñata.
“But the truth is, in 2024, Latino voters have something else on their minds,” he added, cutting to a news report about Latino voters prioritizing inflation.
That priority was reflected in the Times/Siena poll: 93 percent of Hispanic respondents rated current food and consumer goods prices negatively.
…
For Leguizamo, any newfound Latino support for Trump is unacceptable, inflation or not.
“Well, here’s what you can count on, though. No matter what Trump says about inflation, he doesn’t like us and he doesn’t want us here,” he said.
My brother’s mother in law’s whole family is the same, only they aren’t even citizens after multiple decades living in the US. I really dont get it. My mom’s an immigrant, but will never face any problems from it because she’s from England, not El Salvador, but our whole family sees the good and hypocrisy of her being welcome here while Hispanic refugees are told to pound sand.
How can you deny others the same gifts that you were given?
“F U, I got mine” seems to be the common thread.
Truly they have been assimilated
Classic selfishness.
Fuck you, Got mine, is like one of the base requirements of republicanism.
Its OUR treehouse and OUR ladder, not YOURS
Well, everyone cannot have it. Just like we all can’t make a living wage, be rich, or pull the shiny Charizard from a pack. It’s not fair. But life’s not fair. We need to start following the laws. Neither biden or Trump is doing it right IMO
We could all have a living wage and a shiny Charizard, there isn’t an intrinsic reason for that. The supply is intentionally limited.
