‘Real Deal’ GOP Latinas Are Not Done With Jill Biden – Opinion

As we previously reported, Republican Latinas who are either running for office or who are already there have been under attack in recent weeks by terrified leftists and their media allies, both of who are proclaiming these women are out of the mainstream of Hispanic thinking or something simply because they don’t all think the same way socialist Democrat Latinas like Rep. Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) do.

For example, just last week, the New York Times hit out at newly elected Rep. Mayra Flores (R-Texas) as well as Republican House nominees Monica De La Cruz and Cassy Garcia (both also from Texas), calling them members of the “far-right,” which is media speak for “any member of a minority group who does not march lockstep with Democrat party dogma.”

Days later, the ladies were attacked by NBC Latino contributor and CNN columnist Raul A. Reyes, who declared in an op/ed published on the struggling network’s website that conservative Latina women like Flores are “not the real deal” because their views allegedly are not “an authentic reflection of Latino voters.”

So understandably, these ladies were ready to roar when First Lady Jill Biden compared San Antonio Hispanics to “breakfast tacos” during her Monday appearance in Texas at a “Latinx IncluXion” luncheon.

But though mainstream media coverage of the co-president’s tone-deaf comments has waned over the last 24 hours or so, that doesn’t mean these GOP Latinas are willing to let the issue go. They, along with fellow GOP House nominee Yesli Vega (Va.), are still raising the roof in their own way, making sure that people in their respective communities don’t forget how little the Democratic party actually cares about what they think.

Flores, for instance, appeared on Fox News Wednesday for an interview where she stated that Biden apologized (through a spokesperson) because she was caught showing disrespect towards the Hispanic community.

…Flores said it shows Democrats believe things like tacos and “playing Latin music” is all it takes to win voters.

Flores doubted the sincerity of Biden’s apology, saying it only came after the White House saw the backlash from the Hispanic community.

“It’s going to take a lot more than that. We need gas, rent, and groceries to go down. We want more money in our pockets, and they’re only making our lives more miserable.”

Jill Biden was educated by Vega in a brief, concise and direct video.

Hey Jill Biden, since you can’t tell the difference between a Hispanic and a taco, we made you a video! #NotATaco @FLOTUS pic.twitter.com/cUMOzXkeh2

Garcia capitalized on the debate over Mrs. Biden’s cringe comparison and the use of the term “Latinx” in a tweet noting that she’s not “Latinx” and not a “taco.” She’s “100% Texan”:

The Latinx vote can be retained by Democrats.

They are very lucky.

Hopefully, they’ll keep making noise every time Democrats say the quiet part out loud regarding their true thoughts about minority communities, as black conservatives did after Joe Biden’s infamous “you ain’t black” statement in 2020 and as Hispanics did after Terry McAuliffe’s eye-opener during a 2021 campaign stop about how they needed to keep reproducing so Democrats wouldn’t run out of voters.

Republicans were successful in gaining support from minority voters during Trump’s years. They realized there was a place where they shared common ground (for example, on economic and education matters) if their messages were clear. Though they still have a long way to go, the GOP continues to make progress in these communities not by going “Democrat-lite” but by appealing to them by pointing out their commonalities, emphasizing that they agree on more than they disagree – something the media and the left don’t want people to believe.

Between that, and Joe Biden’s mangling of the southern border crisis and the Democratic party’s growing obsession with appearing “woke,” Hispanics are now not just walking away from the Democratic party; they are running away from it.

Only time will tell, but what we’ve seen in recent elections is that the peeling off of Hispanic voters from Democrat voter rolls is commencing apace and shows no signs of stopping. This trend is likely to continue as long Democrats don’t stop trying to appease out-of touch hipsters or wokesters within their party.

Black people are not all the same. Hispanics do not think the same way. Some women don’t think the same. It’s possible to go on but the point is made. Republicans understand this now, Democrats don’t because they hate admitting they’re on the wrong side of any issue.

Advantage: Republcians. That’s the end of this story.
