Donald Trump claims to have the support of a large portion of the Hispanic vote.

Trump at American-Mexican border stated: "I am way, way ahead (in the polls) with Hispanics. Over the years, thousands of Hispanics have worked for me."

What do you think? Are Hispanics lining up to support Trump?

According to a Univision poll of Hispanics:

"If the Republican primary were held today, the poll found, just 7% of Latino voters would support Trump, compared to 38% who would back former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, 22% who would go for Florida Sen. Marco Rubio and 12% who'd vote for Texas Sen. Ted Cruz."

However, Univision might be prejudiced against Trump; he is suing them for $500 million for breach of contract.

How many of those voting for Jeb Bush would be doing so only because his wife is Hispanic?

Why not?
Trump is the result of taking a hardworking rational people and forcing Political Correctness down their throats. Its almost funny that he is probally going to win, it will not be Hiliary or Bernie. Its like the PC police's worst nightmare. Trump is the monster the PC liberals created with all their ridiculous BS they have been trying to force feed for the last 6 years plus.

Liberals better find a 'safe space ' in 2016.

I'm seriously thinking that Trump is being paid by the Clinton camp.
Support from Hispanics??? He basically called ALL Mexicans rapists and murderers...why the hell would they support him? Why would ANY hispanic people support him?

I wouldn't be surprised honestly. It's been my personal experience that people of Hispanic descent but were either born in the USA and/or its territories (Puerto Rico) or became naturalized citizens after coming here legally HATE illegal Hispanics.

PO1 John Miller - Well John, your point is mute. I don't hate anyone. There are many people that have hate, and we already have plenty of that in our country. There just seems to be too many radical people in our country.

That's great. That's your opinion and you're entitled to it. You've never met me so I doubt you've met the people that I have. I was simply stating my personal experiences. I really don't care if you believe me or not, I know the truth.

PO3 Maureen Ruane - I am of hispanic descent (Mexican mother) and her side don't approve of anyone illegal either. Why would they? I think the race baters tend to lump all Mexicans as having something to do with illegal immigration/illegal alien workers, etc. And it works to an extent as a lot of latino groups will come out to show solidarity or anger depending on the way the issue is worded.
