I am sorry and do not wish to state racially stupid things, but how is this POSSIBLE? There was no doubt before the election last year which candidate was going to at least TRY to do more for the undocumented and the minorities in this nation. There was ZERO DOUBT which person on the ballot was a racist pig, a clown, a charlatan that actually said stupid shit like "They're eating the dogs, they're eating the cats..." AND THAT MOTHERFUCKER GOT 50% MORE support from LATINOS THAN RIGHT NOW???

Seriously, I am 100% curious and unfortunately I do not have a large Latin population or friend group to ask, but WHATTHE ACTUAL FUCK WERE THE PEOPLE WHO VOTED FOR HIM SMOKING?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
