The new Quinnipiac poll finds that a staggering 54% of Hispanic voters disapprove of President Joe Biden’s job performance. Only 32% approve!
Forty-three percent of Latino registered voters “strongly” disapprove of Biden’s job performance. If you take a moment to study the numbers, you’ll notice that whites give Biden a higher approval rating (33%) — although they also disapprove of him in greater numbers (60%).
It’s also noteworthy that the two groups have near-identical views about Biden’s performance on the economy: Whites disapprove by a 31-point margin (32%-63%) and Hispanics by a 27-point margin (29%-56%). They agree that Biden has not been a strong leader on Ukraine — whites by 20 points, Hispanics by eight points.
For decades, Republicans have been talking about making gains with or even winning the Hispanic vote. It was often joked that this was Karl Rove’s great white whale. But perhaps he had the wrong strategy and the wrong candidate for president.
Also important: Perhaps the Democrats hadn’t lost their minds enough in 2004 for the breakthrough that’s about to take place now that they have so lost them. Yes, Biden is doing poorly on the economy, immigration, and foreign policy. But what’s going to bring about a true realignment is the Democrats’ obsession with racializing every issue and indoctrinating children in fringe gender ideology.
There will be a couple of hot congressional races in South Texas this fall. Perhaps this will be the breakthrough year.
