Trump Numbers Show How GOP Went Wrong on Immigration

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

68% : If the election were held today, and if the poll is accurate, Trump is headed toward the best Republican performance among Latino voters in more than four decades.
56% : Of course, it's important to remember that Harris still leads Trump among Hispanic voters, just as earlier Democrats led in past campaigns.
55% : The NBC/Telemundo poll showed Trump particularly strong with Hispanic voters under 50 years of age.
47% : Among men in that group, Trump actually leads Harris.
46% : Now, with another election approaching, there is a new NBC/Telemundo poll showing Trump at 40% with Latino voters to 54% for Vice President Kamala Harris.
43% : And they thought Trump would better handle that, too, by 45% to 41%.
37% : Just a little bit in the 2016 election -- Trump received 28% of the Latino vote to Romney's 27%.
37% : If Trump does indeed perform well with Latino voters in the final election results, it would be worthwhile for some Republican Party leaders, past and present, to ask themselves: What did he get right in appealing to Latino voters that we got so wrong?
33% : How did Trump increase Latino support when the Republican Party failed for so many years?
33% : Hispanic voters rated it among their top issues, and they thought Trump would better handle it by a 47% to 34% margin.
21% : Beyond that, Trump sought to use the powers of the executive branch to stem the flow of illegal crossers over the U.S.-Mexico border.
14% : And those same voters said Trump would better handle the cost-of-living issue than Harris by a margin of 46% to 37%.
