53. I don't wanna talk too much out of school

I'm not Latino, but am definitely around many. People from Latin America are used to things like economic discrimination, but for the most part they've never dealt with slavery or civil rights like we have here. They are certainly aware of anti-Latino discrimination, but for many (not all) they see cozying up with the type of people who discriminate as a way of strengthening their own position.

For some Latinos, the traditional/patriarchal/iron fist is what they are accustomed to. Mix that with lack of political sophistication that runs among all groups and you have Latinos for Trump. One friend of mine has an aunt, a citizen who in 2016 said "a woman as president of the U.S.? You can't have that" or something to that effect. I know of other Latinos (not friends) who supported Trump. They support the anti-immigrant message. I don't know if it's self-hating or what. It's totally complicated.
