      Someone should tell the author that Hispanic means someone of Spanish descent. They didn't use "Chicano" once. There are a number of reasons why some Hispanics and Latinos, and probably to a lesser extent Chicanos, might like Trump.

      Does anyone say Chicano anymore? These days I only hear Latino or Latinx.

      Prof Raymond Buriel (may he rest in peace) taught us to use the terms accurately, although that is usually the case in psychology classes. I'm not Chicano, but I certainly got the impression from him that he preferred the term, and did not like being called Hispanic.

      If anyone is wondering: Chicano means Mexican-American, Latino means from Latin America, and Hispanic means from Spanish descent.

      The Census defines Hispanic as "a person of Cuban, Mexican, Puerto Rican, South or Central American, or other Spanish culture or origin regardless of race".

          Thanks, that's interesting. I assume it is to keep things simple as there are only seven racial categories in the Census, so it's not surprising that the definition if overly-broad.

          Yeah. I use it because it's the broadest category...

          Fair enough, but I'd advocate delineating in your own writing. A lot of original peoples from Latin America & Mexico, whose ancestors suffered at the hands of the Spanish, would be included in that definition, and I doubt they'd identify as Hispanic before Chicano/Latino.

          Or Chicana/Latina, I should have said.
