Please, I really hope leftists and Democrats keep talking this way and further alienating Hispanic voters.



NYT



quote:

The Rise of the Far-Right Latina

Jennifer Medina

Representative Mayra Flores is one of three Republican Latinas vying to transform South Texas politics by shunning moderates and often embracing the extreme.



quote:

Such was the Texas of old. The Trump age has given rise to a new brand of Texas Republicans, one of whom is already walking the halls of Congress: the far-right Latina.


quote:

But what is most striking is that Ms. Flores won by shunning moderates, embracing the far right and wearing her support for Donald J. Trump on her sleeve — more Marjorie Taylor Greene than Kay Bailey Hutchison.

Her campaign slogan — “God, family, country” — was meant to appeal to what she calls the “traditional values” of her majority-Hispanic district in the border city of Brownsville. She called for President Biden’s impeachment. She tweeted QAnon hashtags. And she called the Democratic Party the “greatest threat America faces.”

I guess she can’t be Latinx :(

Also I love these articles. Anyone that isn’t left of Mao gets labeled “far right”.

The only thing leftists hate more than conservative wite folks is conservative non-white folks. In their mind they “belong” to them.

....and still the NY Slimes can't see why she won.

That shows exactly how far their fingers are away from the pulse of the average American whose life has been turned upside down due to woke politics and the current fraudulently installed administration's failed rule.

This is America. We can do better than what we're doing. I think these Latino/Hispanics understand that the America they and/or their ancestors came here to live in, is in great peril unless it rapidly breaks away from this trajectory.
