#2 An underexamined aspect of why latinos immigrate to the US: Some of them are moving away from undesirable neighbors. They don't want said same ex-neighbors moving next to them again...

#3 Purely anecdotal, but the impression I had living in Houston was that recent immigrants were strongly Democratic based on free stuff and hand-outs. Once they were settled and got skin in the game, they turned more conservative.

I also suspect that anyone who stood in line and jumped through all the hoops for the legal process would be a bit miffed at anyone taking shortcuts.

#2 is a good point.

#5 For what its worth, the caravans in the news recently were all from Central America. The bulk of Hispanics in the US are not.

#6 Trump did better in 2016 among Latino voters than any recent Republican presidential candidate except W.

Legal immigrants and their children are as disgusted with the national disgrace that is tolerance of illegal immigration as anyone including Trump's base."
