    Chronology is clarifying.

        It's annoying how they're misreading the data. Latinos went to Trump precisely because he toned down his immigration rhetoric. Had Dems pushed for immigration more, Trump would have responded and alienated Latinos.

        There are areas where Hillary won by 40 and Trump won by 10. A 50 point swing has more to do with than just a lack of outreach.

        Also to me the bigger problem are all the Latino strategist especially on the Biden campaign who were dismissive of data showing Trump improvement amazing Latinos.

        They are not wrong. Nobody knows what the strategy is for Latino outreach. Honestly I think it was about holding so much different plates in the air to defeat Trump that something had to give and it was sadly enough the Latino vote.

        Heh..Chronology is clarifying. Feb. 2020: Sanders praises some of Castro policies, angering Florida Hispanics and more. Jeet Heer tries to embellish outcome by blaming "Dem eggheads".

        Imagine thinking Latinos are a cohesive voting block.
