Gosh, if only there were some indication that Trump was a racist that hated Hispanic people before Mosquera voted for him.
You're not wrong, but at the same time, there was a concerted effort to obfuscate the republican game plan in Hispanic communities specifically. Like, they were more directly lied to than basically everyone else in the voter base, with (very obviously, but still) empty promises of protection, benefits, and security.
Many of these people genuinely did not know what they were voting for because many, many steps were taken by swaths of lying dirtbags to ensure that they could not know the truth of these things without suddenly and dramatically pivoting in their beliefs and exiting their comfort zones for reasons they, by design, did not even know they might have need for.
It shouldn't be a surprise to any of us at this point that the propaganda works. We are in the position we are in as a world culture because the propaganda works.
They literally, openly posted their step by step plan for anyone and everyone to read.
