The MeidasTouch Podcast · Lorella Praeli on how Dems Can Win Back Latino Voters · 23 Nov 2025 podcast

It's not a net gain for Democrats when they turn against Trump because Democrats are not actually making a compelling case about what the future needs to look like.

And so,

I think that that's where the opportunity is right now.

And to understand that Republicans have said, well, we are not only against illegal immigration, we're not only trying to target and round up undocumented people, we actually want to shut down all legal avenues of immigration in this country.

So they're against all legal channels.

And what Democrats need to do in this moment is actually lay out that compelling economic vision and say, that is also how we lean into immigration in this country.

But this idea that, you know, you don't have to talk about it creates a vacuum.

And in that vacuum, the right fills it with lies, with scapegoating and with fear.

Well, I think there are a few things.

One is the democratic party lost credibility with Latino voters for many years, right?

Every year, every four year cycle, they would make this promise.

We're going to do comprehensive immigration reform.

We're going to legalize people have been here for a long time.

That's one.

So they lost credibility in this last election.

What we saw is, and people said, well, they're not going to do anything about it.

Trump is going to target criminals.

And so instead we want to vote for someone who has something to promise and something

promising to say about the economy.

And that's how they end up voting for Trump.
