Actually older Cubans tend to vote GOP based on that parties' pandering on the issue of Cuba hence how somebody like Rubio got elected from Miami.
The younger Cubans voted heavily for Obama twice & won Miami-Dade county. The second largest Hispanic group in Florida are Puerto Ricans who favor Dems.
Both of these groups have no stakes in the immigration issue since they are legal residents & US citizens but are offended by Trump's remarks toward their fellow Hispanics.
I predict he will lose their votes here in Florida.
The only thing that Cubans and Puerto Ricans have in common with Mexicans and other Latinos is the Spanish language. Culturally they are different and as I have stated have no horse in the race of illegal immigration and amnesty. I seriously doubt they consider them fellow Hispanics and why would they be offended by Trump's remarks about illegal aliens? If what you are claiming is true than all groups of Hispanics have a tribal mentality. I certainly hope that's not true as that is racism to its core.

no one cares who comes to this country, as long as they work hard to become part of the neighborhood and not work against us...by expecting free bees....
yes, we we are certainly a nation of immigrants, with one big difference, they worked hard to be come American, not prance around throwing their nationality at us, in parades, and so forth, while they are illegals....while they strain our hospitals, schools, and taxes.....
No one cares about any nationality coming here to live, as long as they become a working member of the community....when they don't, they work against us....and use us, to live, no one likes to be used.
[quote=Oldglory;44806089]Floridian Hispanics are mostly Cubans though they aren't Mexican-Americans. They tend to be conservatives and don't have an interest in amnesty as most Cubans aren't here illegally. "The southwest is a whole different ball of wax"
Souhtwest Florida is more Mexican Americans. Then there are the Puerto Ricans (fastest growing Hispanics), who CANNOT be illegals, in the Orlando area.
I will not get into the Haitian/American, Caribbean (Black) populations. I am sure they will be giving a big Trumps up.

Yes - and it's surprising that Cuban Americans overall have such a negative view of Trump. That's not good for Don as the Cubans are or were probably the best bet for him to win over, but that's not happening:
Trump is the uniter, Hillary divides us and puts us into groups.. Trump sees all as wonderful Americans! Trump will put America first ,not as globalist Hillary will do. Giving jobs away..
The more labor that flows over the borders in all areas, white collar and blue collar , it brings down wages. We need to make sure Americans find good paying jobs and stop the influx of cheap illegal labor.

Trump is uniting the party as Group of Latino Conservatives Are Now Backing Trump.
See how it's done liberals.
When you have something good your candidate is doing you have something good to talk about.
I know it's not possible to do this with crooked Hillary because she panders. It's not really the fault of the little people in the Dem. party.
We know she was selected by the establishment in positions of power so they can continue their corruption. But this is how it is done when the people at the grass roots select a candidate.
And he's from Mexico City. But he's now a naturalized US citizen. And he's a successful CPA. I was surprised when he came out and said it. I asked him why and he said "Because Trump will be good for business."
If they do, they all need an immediate Psych evaluation! He has done nothing but spew bigoted, insulting racist insults at them.
He certainly has not! He has merely pointed out that Mexico is sending their citizens here illegally and some of them are rapists, murderers, etc. How are facts insulting, bigoted or racist? He has said nothing bad about Hispanics in general. You guys need to stop lying.
