2016 Postmortem

I wonder if it came across as a bit patronizing. Latinos are not as homogeneous as African Americans as a voting group. Cuban-Americans, Mexican-Americans, and Puerto Ricans all have unique needs and viewpoints. So I think it's a bit hard to lump all Latinos together. Cuban-Americans, for instance, know that as soon as they reach US soil, they have a secure pathway to citizenship. They don't face the same hatred and obstacles that Latino immigrants from Mexico or Central America have to deal with even though they are fleeing persecution and narco violence. So Trump's hateful language toward Mexicans likely didn't stop Cuban Americans in Florida, for instance, from voting for the Donald.
