“We need a white male christian next time!”
“Kamala was too progressive!”
“Muh post-covid incumbent party disadvantage!”
“Latino people will never vote for a woman because of machismo.”
I made this point on a TikTok comment and a liberal double downed with the idea that Latinos in US are fundamentally different from the ones in Mexico
Yeah that’s true though. Miami Cubans are different than Cubans too
Latinos in US are fundamentally different from the ones in Mexico
To an extent yes, because the options offered to Latinos in the U.S is “be white supremacist adjacent” or be a “loser liberal”.

Being leader of the free world ain’t easy
The only mexican left-wingers I know adore her, more than AMLO. And she polls higher than AMLO ever did
she takes indigenous socialism a step further than amlo ever did and that’s her base; if she can avoid getting assassinated or mexico can avoid destabilization from the american empire, she could become the next trump (if trump were socialist)
as long as they move mexico further left, and cater to the indigenous peoples, I’m all for it
