I have never totally understood why Hispanics were so supportive of the Felon to the extent they were.

His callous disregard for them has only increased with each passing day.

Given the Hispanic support he received and didn’t deserve in November’s election, this figure should continue to drop. This is especially true, given his actions since taking office.

Also he has, as most of us could predict, appointed precious few (Rubio mainly) Hispanics since taking office.
