Calling Trump’s sneakers a “big deal” in the “inner city,” Raymond Arroyo leaned into racial stereotypes about Black people to suggest they will go MAGA in 2024.
How is this not satire? How do real, breathing people think that, not only is this a real thing that will work, but that blabbing it out on live tv is a good idea?! Fuck.
Well, hispanics or latinos aren’t a single monolithic group of people. Some of them see the other latino immigrants (especially the undocumented) with disdain. It’s just a matter of stroking their ego and saying whatever that sticks to the single issue voters.
