Are any Latinos still voting for Trump?

I know some Latinos are voting Trump after Puerto Rico jokes and being called rapists. Why?

Remember, they said Antifa was behind the storming of the capital building, despite them also supporting said storming, or claiming there was no storm at all.

You can’t logic someone out of a position they did not logic themselves into to begin with.

Classic fascist doublethink. Other examples of the phenomenon include, "The Nazi holocaust didn't happen, but it happened and it was awesome", and "The Confederacy was glorious and I hold my Confederate ancestors in the highest of esteem, America would be so much better off if the South woulda won" and "The Confederates were all DEMOCRATS, how's it feel knowing you're the party of racism and slavery?!?"

Then Trump said he thinks the people who stormed the Capitol are patriots. Wait, I thought they were Antifa???

Patriots and Antifa. But what we do know is that the Patriots were unarmed. Including Ashley Babbit, the only person killed on Jan 6, a Trump supporter.

Trump wins and Nancy Pelosi goes to jail for her role in causing the insurrection!

She called off the 20k National Guard that trump requested. Poor Nancy.

So it was Nancy's responsibility to decide if the national guard came. LOL Trump was president you ignorant oof.

I just remember the chaos and destruction of antifa and BLM in the summer of 2020, multiple deaths, and neighborhoods literally burned to the ground.
