Of all the #NoMames moments of 2016, Latino Rebels’ Twitter followers have named Latinos With Trump (formerly, Latinos For Trump) as the winner of this year’s No Mames Award.
The grassroots movement (that at times trolled this site and our social media accounts) took 48% of the votes in a four-day Twitter poll. Twenty-five percent of respondents voted for President-elect Donald Trump (the 2015 No Mames winner), 21% chose “establishment Democrats” and just 6% picked “racists caught on tape.”
What some of the voters told us:
@latinorebels I’d like to cast a vote for all of them.

@latinorebels Almost voted “Latinos for Trump”, but Trump won. He is the monster, the racist, xenophobe misogynistic teflon politician…

@latinorebels and most of his tweets are in broken English, when he speaks no other language. He is the one who needs to be deported!

@latinorebels who married not one but two immigrants, one of whom violated immigration law. Plus he bragged about tax evasion…

@latinorebels #NoMames Establishment Democrats because they forgot what “democracy” means by not honoring the enthusiasm of the youth.

We do expect the Latino Trumpers will relish the news, since they have this knack for gloating and trolling, and we can only predict that their attitude will be fully obnoxious now that Trump won the election.
