11. Latinos have a lot to make up for, if you ask me.

The way I look at it, it doesn't matter how much they've turned on tRump. Some of them were all too willing participants in getting other Latinos to vote for the felon guy over the let's put our house in order and continue Bidenomics lady in blue.

I'm all too sure that come mid-terms, they'll have another change of heart and fall in love with the GOP again. The same GOP that has never liked Latinos! But hey, I'm not Latino, so I cannot say what attraction there would ever be to such an abusive relationship as the one presented by history.
