3. These Republicans always try to get Latino voters

But they always shoot themselves in the foot and mouth by giving in to their racist rhetoric which then turns off many conservative leaning Latinos.

I remember after the 2012 election they did lots of navel gazing and concluded they had to tamp down on the bigotry but then Trump came along with his red meat to the bigots and racists in the party and we know how that ended up.

Until the Republicans purge themselves of these racists the party will continue to decline. They can't keep rigging votes and pull off narrow electoral wins forever.
