Chuck Rocha and Mike Madrid dig into fresh polling from EquisLab — the “Memo: Summer 2025 Latino PulseCheck” — and lay out why a sizable slice of 2024 Latino Trump voters are disappointed or regretful, especially on the economy, mass deportations, rising costs, and cuts to social programs. From concerns about ICE's use of 'indefinite detention' to fears of Medicaid/SNAP cuts in the GOP’s “big, beautiful bill,” Chuck and Mike map out the political danger — and the opportunity — of refocusing on affordability, blue-collar messaging, and localized persuasion.
They also walk through the looming California redistricting fight, upcoming off-cycle races in Virginia and New Jersey, and why both parties risk losing Latino trust. Plus—Chuck shares his plans to tackle Yosemite’s Half Dome, while Mike preps for the political battles back in Sacramento.
