I’m Chicanx, so some see me as a “white” Latinx and treat me as such (I will vent about that elsewhere). I’m talking about Latinos that are darker than dark in shade and treatment by others that are Trumpers who are in denial that they have anything in common with “foreigners.”

Latinx is a vast identity category and not a monolith. Whiteness sustains itself through power and domination. Some Latinx are white, some are white passing, and some can be aspiring to whiteness. In the first and second there is clear power associated with whiteness.
