The View host Ana Navarro went after Latino Trump supporters for their views on immigration, describing their stance as a “very stupid attitude" while in a recent interview.
Speaking on CNN on Friday, Navarro commented, “There are some Latino immigrants who forget they came here as immigrants and who want to shut the door behind them, and who think being anti-immigrant somehow is going to make them pass as more American, pass as whatever.”
“That’s a very stupid attitude to have,” she added.
Navarro also referenced the 2019 mass shooting in El Paso, Texas, where a gunman targeted Hispanics, to illustrate her point.
"What folks don’t realize is that when the guy drives thousands of miles to go hunt down Latinos in a Walmart in Texas, he doesn't care when you came here. He doesn't care what your accent is," she stated. "What he's looking for is, does it look like me, does it sound like me? That's what he's looking for. So, you know, when people are anti-something, they're not asking for your papers, they're just anti-that group."
In response to Navarro’s comments, CNN host Jim Acosta noted that Trump’s polling numbers among Black and Hispanic voters are surprisingly high for a modern GOP nominee. “What do you make of this disconnect?” Acosta asked Navarro.
Navarro responded by saying many voters have forgotten the “stupid stuff” Trump has said in the past.
"People already know the guy's a misogynist, they already know he‘s a racist, they already know he says divisive things, and they seem not to take him literally or seriously," she said. "They think it is part of a clown act entertainment.”
Navarro's comments followed a large rally held by former President Donald Trump in New York, which featured a diverse array of supporters, including many black and Hispanic individuals.
During the rally, Trump addressed key issues such as illegal immigration, crime, and economic challenges like inflation. His remarks on illegal immigration prompted the crowd to chant “send them back!”
