that's the fascinating that about grouping latinos together as a voting block. the conservatives in miami are vastly outnumbered by the latino evangelicals throughout the southwestern united states; but most only consider miami.
the person you responded to is right that a significant majority of the middle and upper class latinos (aka the public figures you see on legacy media) have petite bourgeoisie origins in latin america; sheinbaum would be one of them if she had immigrated to the united states.
however it's the latinos in the lower classes (especially the working poor) in this country that are the overwhelming majority that drive downward the american socioeconomic indicators that re-enforce the stereotypes and justify the treatment of latinos as people of color in the united states; their voices are both at odds with upper class' amplified voices and what helped trump win.
