A top New York Latino told reporters that President Biden and the other Dem candidates will be “rudely awakened” by a wave of Hispanics who are set to vote Republican on Election Day, due to lax US border policy.

The Rev. said that Biden’s disastrous immigration policy has led to an unrelenting flood of migrants flooding New York City and urban areas throughout the United States, causing more Hispanic voters, who are typically Democratic, to defect and support Donald Trump instead. Ruben Diaz, Sr. is a former Bronx Councilman and State Senator and current Trump surrogate.

Diaz, who is a Puerto Rican native, spoke on “The Cats Roundtable” of 770 WABC. He said that Hispanics and other voters are opposed to people crossing the border “without documents” or diverting resources away from citizens.

Diaz said, “This will be a rude wake-up call for the Democratic Party.”

1776 Coalition Sponsored Will you join Elon, Vivek and Me? I want gov’t to work for the people, so I joined the DOGE Caucus. Now that Deep State, Establishment & Liberal spenders have a target on me. Fortunately, I’ve got allies like Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy working with me in this mission. This is LTGen Jack Bergman. Please join me in the fight to make gov’t accountable to the citizens..

He said, “It is the worst thing the Democratic Party [and President Biden] have done” in relation to the border crisis. They may have thought that we, the Hispanic Community, would be happier if they opened the border. It has become their Achilles’ heel, as even the immigrants who are here now are against them.

Diaz said that “Hispanics do not support the Democratic Party in the same way they did before.”

The New York Times/Siena College poll conducted last week confirms Diaz’s claim, as former President Trump leads Biden by 9 percentage points among Hispanic voters registered (50%-41%).

The gap between Hispanics and Trump has also narrowed. Biden is now favored by 47% of Hispanics, while Trump is favored by 46%.

Biden, on the other hand, won almost 60 percent of Hispanic votes when the two candidates faced off in 2020.

Diaz is a conservative Democrat and pentecostal pastor who supports Republicans. He leads the 150 member Hispanic Clergy Association in Bronx.

Many in his own party despise him for opposing gay marriage and abortion.

He argues, however, that the Democratic Party’s stance on immigration and crime has moved too far to left.

We have 150 Hispanic Ministers. All of them have congregations. Diaz, who is 81 years old, said to John Catsimatidis, “Some people try and speak for us. People who don’t understand the community… how we feel.” “But I am familiar with the community. “But I know the community.” I understand how my Hispanic friends feel. “We are angry.”
