Accused of Racism And Misogyny for Voting Trump – Hispanics Speak Out

Republicans have been called everything from racists to xenophobes to misogynists who control women. Female Republican voters are being called uneducated and stupid. The latest group to suffer a backlash, Hispanic men, with accusations of racism and misogyny. It’s been intense, and now local Hispanic leaders are speaking out.

The number one issue among voters who voted for Trump is the economy. As a result, many groups that traditionally voted Democrat took a leap and decided to do the unthinkable among Democrats who thought they had certain voting blocks locked up: They voted Republican.

Jorge Garrido, a Republican Hispanic businessman and local Palm Beach County political leader who chairs The Hispanic Vote of Palm Beach County, a nonpartisan organization, has had enough and is speaking out against these inaccurate claims. Other local Hispanic leaders are also calling this BS and following suit.

In an excerpt from Jorge Garrido’s scorched earth email to local Democratic party leadership in Palm Beach County, he had this to say.

Following Donald Trump’s presidential victory, many leaders and pundits in the Democrat party have taken to labeling Hispanic men as misogynists and racists to explain their embarrassing defeat. These remarks are defamatory, racist, and demonstrably false. Perhaps they have not heard of Maria Elvira Salazar, who currently represents all those “misogynistic” men who have elected her twice.  

They may have even missed the fact that local leaders like Maria Antuna, Susy Diaz, Angela Cruz, Yvette Drucker, Cristina Lambert, Lourdes Casanova, and Zayteck Marin could not have been elected without the votes and support of many Hispanic men. The fact that the local Democratic Executive Committee (DEC) does not have a single Hispanic man or woman on its eleven-member Board is indicative of how the Democratic party perceives Hispanics.

Florida Jolt reached out to a few locally elected Hispanic Democrats who responded by saying they either had never heard that such things were being said or flat-out said they didn’t want to say anything about it. One was asked directly if she thought Hispanic men were racists and misogynists. Crickets. Another was asked why he had been vocal about Puerto Rico being referred to as garbage but wouldn’t say anything about this. No response.

Garrido’s scathing email continues.

Democrats are out of touch with Hispanic men!

Millions of us voted with the Republicans not because we hate women or blacks but because we disagree with the many bad policies that you have pushed on us. We are against the woke mentality that values race, gender, and sexual orientation above merit. We prefer not to pay twice as much for fuel and food while you are sending billions overseas to fund unnecessary wars. We hate that thousands of criminals who have crossed the border are being sent into our communities to further their criminal activities. We hate that human trafficking and the sex slave trade of young Hispanic women have skyrocketed under your leadership. We are against high taxes.

Rolando Chang Borrero, the President of the Democratic Hispanic Caucus of Florida, is the only Democrat who was willing to discuss this subject. He faced the questions head-on.

There are extremes on both sides, and that’s a losing formula. I believe in compromise, and accusations of racism aren’t helping. I’d like to see moderates in office who come up with solutions. The Hispanic community is not a single voting block. It’s more diverse than people realize. We’re different colors, socioeconomic statuses, etc. Most Hispanics who voted for Trump did so for economic reasons, whether the information was true or untrue. I don’t believe this happened because of racism. The larger population is trying to figure out why eggs are more expensive, and the ones who voted for Trump thought he could fix these problems. Most people do the things they do because that’s what they believe. People, in general, are not trying to hurt other people. They’re doing what they think is right.

North Palm Beach Councilman Orlando Pulyo, a Trump supporter, had this to say.

Last time I looked, I’m not a misogynist or a racist. I’m Hispanic through and through, and I’ve got none of these issues that Dems are talking about. It’s crazy what’s going on out there. The Democrat party no longer represents the working class. The Republican Hispanic voters were quiet during election season but came out and voted. Their voices were heard. 

~Councilman Orlando Pulyo (R-North Palm Beach)

Garrido ended his email with this.

We are angry that our daughters’ sports are being invaded by men. We are disheartened about your soft stance on anti-Christian and anti-Semitic activity. We cannot support your soft stance on crime. We were heartbroken by the unnecessary killing of Hispanic servicemen and women that occurred during the catastrophic withdrawal from Afghanistan. We fear and hate socialism. Most of all, we are tired of your bias against us. We are strong men who love our communities, families, God, and country. We don’t hate groups of people; we hate bad policies!

There was a time when people were concerned about accidentally saying the “wrong” things or voicing opinions that might offend others and possibly get them “canceled.” It’s now so overdone that everyday Americans have decided that they know what’s best for themselves and will not be told what’s right and wrong. The 2024 election was a mandate. Voters chose policy over party, and name-calling has stopped working. The voters have spoken, and Donald J. Trump will be the 47th President of the United States. Let’s get to work.
