Because a lot of people thought Hillary would win, based on the polls, and she lost.

You really have a poor understanding of statistics, probability, and polling.

My cousin went to some Latinos for Trump parade in Florida over the weekend. He said they had 30k people there. I didn't believe him until he sent me this video. All of my family, who came here from Nicaragua, in Miami is voting for Trump because they want nothing to do with Biden and his socialism(their words, not mine). It seems like a lot of Latinos feel that way, at least in Florida. **** is wild.

Let's keep it real. Latinos are essentially White. Pop culture makes it seem like they're closer to Black than White which is absolutely false.
How do you determine which candidates you think are more likely to win? Is it a 50-50 toss up in your mind, or do you have an evidence based approach?

it’s pretty hilarious when you know the history with some of these groups
like how dirty white people used to do Greeks, Latinos that could pass, Jews, Italians and others
but the more any from those groups could slide in they seemingly forgot some of that history outside of certain convenient aspects
even to the point now where you got Dominicans, puerto ricans and couple others who will fight you if you tell em they black
hell we got a ton of that in the Bahamas where you got folks denying their blackness just could they could pass for white

This election might not tell just how many bigots there are in America.
But it will give us a definitive count of how many top-shelf, grade-a buffoons they really are. Cause if you are voting for Kanye, you a exactly that.

He has a poor understanding of many things, including leverage.
Somehow thinking that Black people voting for the party who wants to appoint a Justice who will allow them to finally strike down the ACA, gut what’s left of the Voting Rights Act, and likely get rid of Affirmative Action as we know it would somehow give us leverage. How would voting for a party who actively wants to suppress the vote of Black people give us leverage?

That's a whole different thread for discussion. Folks be Afro-Latino(a) when it benefits them, but let Black people start making strides that they fought for, then I'll gets real dicey because "we didn't fight for them too."

Can't you see that helping the GOP never have to worry about the black vote hurting them at the polls, is the perfect way to get leverage over them?
It is such an asinine premise that anyone that gave it a few seconds of thought should realize it is bull****.
Could you imagine if someone suggested that everyone at Winterfell just surrender and join the Night King's army, help him sack King's Landing, and take over Westeros; so in turn that will give the North leverage to make him pass the Second Snow Act, and increase HBCU funding so the Unsullied and Dothraki can get job retraining.

Voter Turnout Appears Steady; Enthusiasm Running High
A key Gallup measure of Americans' propensity to vote suggests turnout is on pace to be similar to that in 2012 and 2016, while voter enthusiasm is higher.

Why do you think the Lincoln Project exists? Those are the Republican operatives who, back in 2013, wanted to appeal to the increasing number of minorities in this country who identify with conservative values that are not racism, white supremacy, and hatred for women's autonomy.
The fact is, they left because they finally saw what those with two eyes and folds in their brain realized a long time ago: this republican party DOES NOT want the black vote. They just want them to stop voting for the opposition party.
