Eric Swalwell lied to all of us.
My friendship with him, our family's friendship together with him, clouded my judgment.
And I was wrong.
I deeply, deeply regret that.
So two things.
Number one, the affordability crisis.
And number two, immigration, immigration enforcement.
The affordability crisis, Latinos are probably just also as affected by the economy as black men.
And so when things start going south, that community first feels it first.
They're the ones that will get fired first.
They're the ones that start losing contracts first.
And they don't have much savings to actually kind of like
get through these bumps, right?
So if you see when the economy started going south, here, Latinos had already started moving against the president because they were feeling it first, right?
Number two, immigration enforcement.
Now, the president had a message in 2024 that if you listened, it said, I want to do mass deportations.
And of course, everyone in, you know, D.C.
mind world says like, well, how do these Latinos not see that?
Yeah, yeah.
