Research shows 70% disapprove of job US president – who won backing of nearly half of Latino voters in 2024 – is doing

A majority of Latinos disapprove of Donald Trump and his economic and immigration policies, according to a new report from the Pew Research Center.

After receiving support from nearly half of Latino voters in the 2024 election, Trump had lost the backing of a majority surveyed in October. Pew found that 70% of Latinos “disapprove of the way Trump is handling his job as president”, while 65% disapprove of his administration’s approach to immigration and 61% believe his economic policies have worsened economic conditions.

Trump won 48% of the Latino vote in 2024, up from 28% in 2016. Latinos, one of the fastest-growing demographics in the United States, account for one in five Americans.

      So does most English print media and editorial content. They give a synopsis of what he supposedly was trying to say instead of putting his actual babble in it’s entirety most of the time.
