At the same time, many in my community — especially Latino men under 40 —have been steadily shifting to the right for years. Latino voters’ support for Trump has plummeted by 20 points since December, according to a Fox News poll that interviewed more than 1,000 voters. This isn’t just a trend among Latinos — Trump’s support is wavering in general, even among voting blocs he believed he’d locked in. For many Latino voters, though, the shift away from Trump isn’t about suddenly changing beliefs, but about confronting the real-life consequences of policies that once felt abstract or exaggerated. Now, we wait and see whether that disillusionment will lead Latino voters to deeper political awareness, or an even deeper disconnect from politics.
