Why are Hispanics Mobilizing Around Trump?

"Food with Dignity"

CPAC is one of my favorite conferences. Some of the things I enjoy about their format is that media row is just outside the main conference room where speakers such as President Trump, Vivek Ramaswamy, Nigel Farage, Tulsi Gabbard, Javier Milei grace the stage. Lined up one by one and broadcasting live are media organizations like The Epoch Times, The War Room (Bannon), OAN, Real America’s Voice, The New American, NewsMax, NTD News and The John Fredericks Media Network, and these are just a few of the many, many broadcasters. This is combined with the excellent vender room - which is full of booths with conservative organizations and their top officials, as well as political candidates and conservative companies. The room is vast. Everyone is there to talk with people about their mission, what they are doing and what they have accomplished. Then there are the “stars”. The speakers, foreign and domestic dignitaries and politicians. Just like everyone else, they are also there to listen to the talks. The energy, crowds (yes, it is huge - particularly on Friday and Saturday) are overwhelmingly supportive of each other.

For me, CPAC is kind of special because almost everyone knows me. I can’t hardly walk through the crowded areas without getting mobbed by fans. I am overwhelmed and humbled by the fact that people feel so passionate about my work over the past three years. Furthermore, that fact that I will too will be speaking on the CPAC stage, shortly after President Trump, is one of the honors of my lifetime. It is so easy for me to brush off accolades, but here it is in my face. In my real life, at home - on the farm, we live quietly. I forget how many people support my work. For that I am very grateful.

Anyway, yesterday I met Eva Sara Landau when I was registering for the CPAC conference at the Gaylord Hotel in Alexandria, Virginia. I have met Eva before at CPAC, and she is a vivacious, out-going, energetic person. So, as I waited for my badge, we struck up a conversation. This is the fifth CPAC conference where she has volunteered, and she is very proud of the responsibilities that the organization has given her. She is an incredibly hard worker and her energy is infectious.

Eva is a political refuge who came to this country from Bolivia in 2009. She told me that she came in “the right way.” She arrived in the USA legally and had to pass through a series of road blocks, interviews, etc. and then wait years and years for her refuge status to be granted. During that time, she found a job. She supported herself. She points out that when people are given cash payments, food, medical care and housing - they loose their dignity. They become dependent on the state.
As she was registering me, I asked her and the other volunteers about what the turn-out for CPAC is this year. The group of registrars all agreed - this year may be the biggest CPAC ever. The reason why? According to Eva and her colleagues,

People of hispanic origin in the USA are pissed off and scared.

And they are coming to CPAC to get involved and to support Trump. Because this group of Americans see Trump as the one candidate who will secure the border. Who will fix the economy. Eva believes that the number one reason hispanics in this country legally have come to the USA is for safety. To escape the drug lords, gangs, lawlessness and corrupt governments. Many have been persecuted, like Eva was - in the country of their birth.

They recognize that the porous border is a danger to the American way of life. To being safe. That the urban centers in the USA are being overwhelmed with people who do not deserve to be here. They have not earned it. They have cheated to get here.

Furthermore, while this group of legal immigrants had to work and continue to work, the US government is putting the illegal immigrants in the front of the line, displacing people who are here legally and going through the proper channels.

Eva pointed out to me that the US government is giving these illegal aliens not only food and housing, but computers, clothes, cash cards and more. Something that makes them dependent on the state and in particular, the democratic administration. It goes without saying, that the hope of the DNC is that this will translate into votes down the road.

There are 63.7 million (plus or minus) Hispanics in this country who can vote, who are here legally. Furthermore, it is no coincidence that more than 50% of border-patrol agents are Mexican Americans. The border is an issue that matters to this group of Americans. They know that the people pouring over the border have not been vetted, many are criminals and whereas in order to obtain a green card, one has to be vaccinated - even this requirement has been waived.

Recent polling suggests that inflation, rising cost of living, jobs and the economy, health care, crime, lack of affordable housing and the border top the list of concerns for hispanics who are eligible to vote. And the border issues keep climbing in importance. The Biden administration has failed on all of these fronts. We all recognize that it is time for a change.

Most hispanics are appalled by the progressive and woke agendas. 83% of hispanics in this country who are eligible to vote consider themselves religious.

The polling of hispanics just gets progressively worse for Biden.

A 2024 USA Today and Suffolk University survey shows Trump ahead with 39% support among hispanic voters. This compares to Biden’s 34% support. This signals a huge change since 2020, when Biden had 65% of the approval from hispanic voters.

Below is a chart from AS/COA that documents how hispanic voters have voted in past elections, I have taken the most recent polling numbers and projected that onto this chart. The numbers are stunning.

I believe that the change in hispanic support for a democrat president is a bell weather for the 2024 election.

Barring censorship, data manipulation, propaganda or an act of Congress, President Trump will be the next president.

I believe that the country will benefit from this and I look forward to January 20th, 2025.
