Latino men voted for Trump in large numbers. Here’s what they hope he delivers. - eviltoast

Summary

Latino men played a key role in Donald Trump’s election victory, with 43-55% supporting him, drawn by promises of economic relief, job opportunities, and small business support.

Despite higher workforce participation, many Latino men face wage gaps, dangerous jobs, and lower educational attainment compared to other groups.

Some prioritize trade skills or entrepreneurship over college, seeking practical returns on investment.

Experts highlight the need for policies addressing economic barriers, job training, and health coverage to sustain their support.

Future voting will depend on whether these voters see tangible progress in achieving the American Dream.

    That just proved his point. Mexico elected a woman so they went to a country that’s going to have a misogynistic president. Also women outnumbers the men in mexico 51% to 48%.

        Apparently a shitload of Mexican men came running over the border since Sheinbaum was elected in June. So they could get away from the woman and vote Trump. Yeah.
