Support For Trump Among Latinos Plummets As Many Feel Betrayed Over Scope of Immigration Crackdown

Support For Trump Among Latinos Plummets As Many Feel Betrayed Over Scope of Immigration Crackdown Almost three in four Latinos now disapprove of Trump. Only Blacks have a higher rate President Donald Trump's support among Latinos has plummeted as he nears his first 100 days in office, with many saying they feel betrayed by the scope of his policies, particularly immigration enforcement. Concretely, almost three in four Latinos (72%) now disapprove of the way Trump is handling his job as president, with 54% who do so strongly, according to a new poll by the Pew Research Center. Only Black people surveyed have a higher disapproval rate of Trump, with 82%. The scenario contrasts with the gains made by Trump with the demographic in the last election, swinging 19 points to favor Trump nationally compared with 2020, according to preliminary exit polls. Harris still won a slight majority of the electorate, 52% to 46%, but it was a dramatic decrease over Joe Biden's 33-point margin in 2020. Overall, 59% of respondents disapprove of Trump, compared to 40% who agree. Only Whites are close to having a net approval of the Republican, with 49% approving of him, including 39% who strongly do so. Asians, the other Demographic surveyed, shows a 69% disapproval rate, compared to a 29% approval one. Partisanship continues to be a significant factor in people's views: more than 9 in 10 Democrats disapprove of Trump, with only 7% approving. In contrast, 75% of Republicans continue to approve of him, but almost one in four now disapprove (24%) with 14% disapproving strongly. The shift in views of Trump's way of leading the country among Latinos comes as many who supported him say they feel betrayed by some of his policies. Many Venezuelans, for example, have been impacted by the decision to revoke their Temporary Protected Status (TPS) even if it is being challenged in court. "Today, I feel the same way I felt in Venezuela— that they're going to come take me somewhere I won't be able to escape from," Ronald Bellorin, a Venezuelan who fled during the first Trump administration in hopes the Republican leader would protect him and his family, told the Washington Post in February. "It's terrible to feel this way here in the United States. "I thought we would be safe here," he added as he teared up recounting his family's story. Some of Trump's most dramatic inroads with Latino voters were made in Florida, particularly in Doral, where roughly 40% of the city's residents have Venezuelan roots, leading to the nickname "Doralzuela." Trump went from losing the city in 2016 to winning in the 2024 election, getting 62% of the vote and beating Vice President Kamala Harris by 25 percentage points. "The Venezuelan community gave President Trump their support," said John De La Vega, a Venezuelan American immigration lawyer and Army veteran. "This is completely different from what I thought it was going to be." The administration has also revoked protections given to migrants who entered the country through CBP One, an app implemented during the Biden administration to allocate asylum appointments to people waiting their turn outside the country. They are now being directed to self-deport or risk never being allowed into the country again. Another program targeted is CHNV, which allowed 530,000 Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans and Venezuelans sponsored by American citizens to enter the U.S. Another program consists of processes that permit some Colombians, Ecuadorians, Central Americans, Haitians and Cubans with American relatives to come to the U.S. to wait for a family-based green card to become available.

From the #FAFO department:
"The decision to cancel temporary protected status (TPS) for hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans has ignited fear, confusion and outrage in this Miami suburb, which is affectionately known as 'Doralzuela.' Venezuelans here have been some of Trump’s biggest proponents"
Venezuelans backed Trump. Now some worry he’ll deport them.
Venezuelans in the Miami suburb of Doral have been some of Trump’s biggest proponents. Many feel betrayed after he revoked temporary protected status for thousands.

Précis of report co-written by Sabrina Rodriguez and Reshma Kirpalani The revocation of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Venezuelans under Trump’s administration has sparked fear and disillusionment among a community that once fervently supported him. Many, like university professor Ronald Bellorin, fled Venezuela’s autocratic regime believing Trump would protect them. Now, with TPS ending, they face deportation, shattering their sense of security. In Doral, a Miami suburb known as ❝Doralzuela,❞ Venezuelans once championed Trump, attending rallies and flying his flags, convinced he would aid their fight against Nicolás Maduro. However, the community now feels betrayed. Immigration lawyer John De La Vega, a vocal Trump supporter, expressed shock, noting that Trump had made significant political gains among Venezuelans, winning Doral in 2020 and securing 62% of the vote in 2024. Many, like Andrea Rangel Walther, are grappling with the irony of supporting a leader now deporting their families. The decision affects approximately 600,000 Venezuelans, many of whom have established deep roots in the U.S., working in various industries and contributing to South Florida’s economy. Critics argue that Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem’s justification —that conditions in Venezuela have improved— is detached from reality. Trump’s recent diplomatic moves, including sending an envoy to meet with Maduro, further alarm Venezuelan exiles who see it as legitimizing an illegitimate regime. For people like journalist Samir Luzardo, who fled government persecution, and Bellorin, whose asylum claim was denied despite credible threats, returning to Venezuela is not an option. Many are now scrambling for legal alternatives, though the cost and uncertainty make it an uphill battle. The sense of abandonment is palpable, and community leaders warn that this betrayal will have political repercussions.

Trump’s move has sparked a sense of betrayal in this Miami suburb affectionately known as “Doralzuela” that is home to more Venezuelan immigrants than any other city in the United States. Venezuelan Americans helped deliver Trump a resounding victory in the city, where his margin of victory grew by about 20 percentage points from 2020 to 2024. Voters from the community said they appreciated Trump’s tough line on government abuses in their homeland – and didn’t expect him to deport their relatives. Noel Ginestra voted for Trump, but now his sister, who is a TPS holder, is facing possible deportation. While he still backs the president, he said he hoped the TPS revocation is blocked in the courts. “I supported him, but it disappointed us that he decided to end TPS,” Ginestra said, referring to Venezuelans. “It bothered us that he put everyone in the same bucket.”

Doralzuela went 61% for Trump in 2024. They thought they were the good guys, and now their formerly TPS-protected relatives have zero legal status. I in turn will shed zero tears.

Tr*mp is deporting his base by terminating Temporary Protected Status for Venezuelans (still a ghastly erosion of rights).
Venezuelan voters in Florida have become critical to Trump's Latino base, who turned out for his town halls and campaign stops in Miami last year. Venezuelans are the fastest growing Latino group in the U.S., and they number in the hundreds of thousands in South Florida. In the majority Venezuelan enclave of Doral, known to locals as "Doralzuela," Trump won upwards of 60 percent of the vote.
