Hillary has over a 40 point favorability advantage with Latinos over Trump.

Now that's a significant metric for the GE.

Just ask President Romney.

WHY ONLY 40?!?!?! What latino could possibly not loathe Trump?

I seriously hope there are plans to blanket Spanish language markets with anything and everything Trump has ever said regarding Latinos. There doesn't even need to be any kind of voice over or anything. Just clips of him saying what he has said.

Same thing with markets with large Muslim populations.

There are several southern states where a Republican would not have a chance statewide if every eligible African-American would vote.

Add Latinos and you have a very blue South.

Just saw a clip of Trump's pre-recorded speech to Hispanics made FROM HIS PLANE. Bet that went over well. To any group.
