TRUMP SERIOUSLY THINKS HE WILL WIN NEW MEXICO


…Trump Protesters for his very first visit as the US President to New Mexico

This man has no shame in his attitude toward anyone that isn’t white.

President Donald Trump, is the same man that ran for president by going after illegal immigration with his negative rhetoric about Latinos.  This was the foundation of his first term in office. 

Well, this same president made a direct appeal this week in New Mexico to Hispanic voters for voting for him for a second term.  And this is the man that started his presidential campaign by saying that Mexicans: “bring crime, bring drugs” and they are “rapists”.

Yes, the same man that also has a long history against all black’s, but in a 2016 campaign speech, Trump pointed out a man in the audience and said “Look an my African American”, as if the man, were a Trump possession.  A man that, by the way, has since made it known to the public that he is no longer a Trump supporter, and that he will not be voting for Donald Trump in 2020.

At one of his outrageous campaign rallies in New Mexico, his first visit as president to this border state, a state that BTW has been controlled by Democrats since 2004.  Trump once again targeted his campaign attacks on his political opponents, and of course the media, but now he has added his false sweeping declarations of Latino support for his reelection.

In the crowd of Latino’s wearing Trump shirts & holding Trump Supporter signs, he actually said: “Yesterday marked the beginning of the Hispanic Heritage Month….. who’s Hispanic here?”  Trump had actually asked this of the cheering crowd of supporters on the outskirts of Albuquerque, many of whom waved their, “Latinos for Trump” signs.  Trump also had the gall to say, “These are Incredible people . . . we have much to celebrate”…….what the hell does that men?

After touting the low unemployment rate for Hispanic Americans, as well as for all Americans, Trump said, “We’re working night and day to deliver a future of limitless opportunity for our nation’s Hispanic American citizens, including many extraordinary Mexican Americans.”

So, where's the proof of that statement?

And yes, as he had called the Black man, his “African American”,  he actually referred to the crowd as, “My Hispanics”.

This is Trump’s current approach to the same Mexicans that he had called “rapists”, while claiming that God had created Donald J. Trump to create American jobs,

Trump’s statements are opposite the reality of the latest, measured, public-opinion surveys, which show that the majority of Hispanic Americans disapprove of his job performance.  Trump’s approval rating among Hispanic adults nationally stood at 25% in a Washington Post-ABC News poll just this month, with 67% disapproving. That is 13 percentage points lower than Trump’s overall national job approval rating of 38%.

To show where Trump is against the current Democratic front-runner Joe Biden, in combined Post-ABC polls in September and early July, the polls found Trump trailing 71% to 26%, which is similar to his losing margin among Hispanics in his 2016 race, according to exit polling.

According to the US Census Bureau, Hispanics make up almost half of the population in New Mexico, the highest share of any state.  Trump lost New Mexico by eight percentage points in 2016, and since 1992 a Republican has won the state only once in a presidential election, and that was George W. Bush.

We will campaign for every vote, and we will win the great state of New Mexico,” Trump said. “The Democrats want to completely annihilate New Mexico’s economy. . . . The Democrats will never get the chance because New Mexico will never give them that chance.”  The Democrats in New Mexico say that is total nonsense.

New Mexicans certainly don’t approve of pulling families apart or putting kids in cages,” said New Mexico Democratic Party Chairwoman Marg Elliston.  We’re ready for leadership that celebrates our immigrant communities, not demonizes them.”

The only sustained applause that Trump received at his rally was his pledge to uphold Second Amendment gun rights.

I will never, ever allow [the Democrats] to take away your sacred right to keep and bear arms,” Trump said, totally overstating the gun policy proposals of some Democrats.

Trump also forcefully defended the character and integrity of Supreme Court Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh, calling him “a great, brilliant man” and urging resignations at the New York Times, which reported over the weekend new accusations of sexual abuse against Kavanaugh.

Trump actually predicted that he would win a far greater share of the Hispanic vote than all the polls currently suggest.  That is because of, not in spite of, his hard-line immigration policies.

Trump really ended his rally with what should upset most Hispanics because he referred to Hispanics as being separate from being regular Americans.  He did that by, just as he did with his comment of “my African American”, he ended his rally with: “…to be honest. We love our Hispanics!”

Nuff said.
