There are a surprising number of Latino Americans who are pro-Trump who don’t seem to realize what will happen if Project 2025 is implemented and they’re out somewhere without the “proper” paperwork.
I’ve been able to convince a few of them to not vote for the orange asshole by passing them along this pic and link to Project 2025’s PDF. All it took for one was the mention of abortion rights being curtailed to change her opinion. A lot of people don’t bother learning about policy and that just makes them gravitate toward whoever appears to be “strong” or “righteous”.
I’m interpreting that one to mean you just submit your initial application within 10 years of acquiring the disability, or possibly within 10 years of being discharged.
Ok, so take my case (and the situation of thousands of other GWOT veterans) it took years to even get the VA to admit anything was received, and that was without losing anything. It took 14 years to get mine processed, and you know under this law it would hit year ten and they would do a “sorry, brah! Go fuck yourself!”
At first, I thought the phenomenon had to do with religion. My opinion changed after 2020 as Biden is Catholic, so that no longer tracks. Nowadays, I’m starting to think it has more to do with machismo culture.
I think you are right about it being machismo. A thing to know though is that plenty of Christians hate Catholics. The schism between Catholics and Protestants still burns bright for some people.
Plenty of them can. They just don’t realize what will happen to them if Trump wins and they happen to get on the wrong side of a cop who doesn’t like how brown their skin is.
That’s fair. Personally in the 4 years he was president I was terrified he would come out with something that would force me out of my job and thus out of the country. (and he nearly did, I wasn’t allowed to work for 3 months at one point.)

You might also send some people this. There are a lot of Latino veterans.
The time limit one is amazing. It took me 11 years to get the VA to process my shit. “We lost it, bro. Try again!”

Well, don’t mention abortion rights then, and let the other points bring the point home that Trump would be a bad idea.

Not to mention that these pro-Trumpers can’t even vote.
