The future of the Democratic party & the country depends on latinos understanding that Republicans [View all]

have revealed their preferred societal structure and while they may agree with latinos on matters that pertain to Christian beliefs, latinos are no where to be found in the top tiers of their ideal society. The only expectation is that this minority group will be useful to them during elections, but then suffer the negative consequences afterwards.

So, while they're shock, SHOCKED that the Republicans turned on them, the important thing they should remember is that it's going to take the Republican party one or more generations to leech this perception from the minds of the public. So, minorities who decide to continue supporting them, have to decide how much pain they are willing to inflict on themselves.

By the way, another DUer posted this link, which does show that latinos are finally waking up: 27% in support of Trump. 73% against. This can completely undermine the Texan gerrymandering effort.
