President Donald Trump did historically well in terms of the Hispanic vote.  In both Texas and Florida, the Republican nominee did well among Hispanics. Per NBC News, “55 percent of Florida’s Cuban-American vote went to Trump, according to NBC News exit polls, while 30 percent of Puerto Ricans and 48 percent of ‘other Latinos’ backed Trump.” Nationally, he went from 28 percent among Hispanics to 32 percent.

 

What happened here? Were particular issues at stake in the 2020 election affected the Hispanic community’s votes? What about Trump’s immigration policies? And lastly, is there even a Hispanic voting bloc–or should we look at these voters in a different way?

 

Mike Gonzalez, a senior fellow in the Douglas and Sarah Allison Center for Foreign Policy at The Heritage Foundation, joins The Daily Signal Podcast to discuss all this and more.
