ActorĀ John LeguizamoĀ obliterated a small horse piƱata while reciting a thorough catalogue of Spanish-language profanities on ā€œThe Daily Showā€ Tuesday in response to a New York Times/Siena poll that reported formerĀ President TrumpĀ leadsĀ President BidenĀ among Latino voters.

Of the pollā€™s Hispanic respondents, 46 percent they would vote for Trump if the election were held today, and 40 percent said they would vote for Biden.

ā€œYou may be thinking, how is this possible? ā€˜Build the wallā€™ Donald Trump? ā€˜Mass deportationsā€™ Donald Trump? ā€˜Guy who thinks Daddy Yankee is a baseball playerā€™ Donald Trump?ā€ asked Leguizamo, afterĀ pummeling the piƱata.

ā€œBut the truth is, in 2024, Latino voters have something else on their minds,ā€ he added, cutting to a news report about Latino voters prioritizing inflation.

That priority was reflected in the Times/Siena poll: 93 percent of Hispanic respondents rated current food and consumer goods prices negatively.

ā€¦

For Leguizamo, any newfound Latino support for Trump is unacceptable, inflation or not.

ā€œWell, hereā€™s what you can count on, though. No matter what Trump says about inflation, he doesnā€™t like us and he doesnā€™t want us here,ā€ he said.
