GOP Hispanics Dump Trump After Arizona Immigration Speech

Let's talk the Hispanic vote. After Mitt Romney lost because he never reached the 40% threshold, the GOP went on a hispanic outreach crusade with the catapulting of Rubio and others.
Trump doesn't have anywhere near the 20some % that Romney has. Gallup has Trump's approval among Latinos at a catastrophic 12%. This makes me question the poll numbers and the hand wringing.
Is it me or does it look dire for him? Not to mention the impact he is doing to the GOP. Didn't he just put them back a couple decades? Can he truly win with just the white vote?

I will show him this.
I told him this weekend that Assface needed three groups to win...Hispanics, African American, and Women.
His response..."So, we're okay then."
