MSNBC’s Kornacki Admits: GOP Making Major Gains with Hispanic Voters in Pennsylvania

Donald Trump has been rewriting the campaign playbook for years. But this time around, he is flipping the script again and again. Thanks to a crooked New York judge, Trump was off the campaign trail for weeks. So, he used that time to reach New York voters. And it appears many of them responded.

Since that time, Trump has done the unthinkable: go to the most blue places in America to make an appeal to voters.

Trump has gone to places other Republicans feared to tread. He made a case to groups thought locked up by liberals. The former president has boldly called out failed liberal policies, urging voters to reconsider. How has that been working out for him? Well, the left might have scoffed at his tactics. But one NBC correspondent is done scoffing. And he is raising the alarm over one big swing state.

The Daily Caller:
NBC News national political correspondent Steve Kornacki said on Wednesday that support for Republican nominee Donald Trump is growing among the Hispanic population in Pennsylvania ahead of the 2024 election…

“This is an area, we’ve talked so much about the polls showing Trump making more inroads with Latino voters, this is the kind of place where the Trump folks think this trend can continue.”

A Changing Tide

In a surprising twist that has the liberal media in a spin, MSNBC’s own Steve Kornacki has revealed that Hispanic voters in Pennsylvania are shifting towards the Republican Party. This unexpected development could have significant implications for the upcoming elections and has left Democrats scrambling to understand what went wrong.

Steve Kornacki, known for his in-depth electoral analysis, dropped the bombshell during a segment on MSNBC. He noted a substantial increase in Hispanic voter support for Republican candidates in Pennsylvania, a trend that could reshape the state’s political landscape. This shift comes at a time when Democrats have traditionally counted on Hispanic voters as a reliable part of their base.

The Hard Numbers

NBC looked at several Pennsylvania towns with large Hispanic populations. While they went for Clinton and Biden in previous elections, they are leaning hard for Trump. Democrats lost support in Hispanic-majority cities in Berks County, Lehigh County, and Luzerne Count. In Allentown, which has a 54% Hispanic population, liberal support went from 45 points to 35 points.

The numbers are even more telling in states with higher Hispanic populations. In Reading, which has 67% Hispanics, support for Democrats went from 64 points to 45 in the last presidential election. These trends will likely continue this year, with Trump gaining a huge advantage in November.

Democrats in a Panic

The left is trying to explain how a minority group as large and important as Hispanics are ditching their party. Especially when you consider how they’ve tried to pander to this group in recent years, to the detriment of black Democrat voters. But the left’s idea of appealing to Hispanics is to open the border to illegal aliens.

Apparently, Democrats think all Hispanic Americans came here illegally and would naturally support an open border. Who wants to tell ‘em the truth? That most Hispanic Americans are legal citizens and don’t want an open border.

On top of that, Biden and Harris’ inflation fiasco has hurt working Americans the most. That includes many Hispanic workers, who have seen their paychecks shrink under this administration. You can throw around identity politics all you want, it won’t change the fact that Hispanic families are struggling to put food on the table.

Trump’s Advantage.

Let’s not forget that many Hispanic Americans are deeply religious and cherish strong, family values. That’s not the Democrats’ strength when they welcome drag queens into classrooms and let men use women’s bathrooms. Trump successfully ended Roe v. Wade and continues to fight for traditional values. That is a big draw for Hispanics, who are more suspicious of the race pandering of the left.

If these trends hold, Trump could win Pennsylvania by a large margin. It is unknown how Kamala Harris will be able to win over Hispanic voters… if she can.

Key Takeaways:

  • Hispanic voters in Pennsylvania are breaking for Donald Trump by increasing margins.
  • Towns that went for Clinton and Biden are turning away from the Democratic Party, according to NBC News.
  • This comes after Trump has targeted blue cities and regions, making an appeal to swing voters.
