Rolling Stone interviewed more undecided Latino voters who took part in Univision's town hall with former President Donald Trump, and it found that they came away decidedly unimpressed.
Earlier in the week, it was revealed that 56-year-old Ramiro González, whose questions to Trump about the January 6th Capitol riots went viral on social media, said that he had firmly decided against supporting Trump in the 2024 election.
Now three more voters who also attended the town hall also told Rolling Stone that they were not pleased by what Trump said at the event, with two going so far as to say that he had lost their votes.
Registered Republican José Saralegui told Rolling Stone he was "very disappointed" by what Trump said, adding that he was particularly disturbed that he doubled down on telling lies about Haitian immigrants eating locals' pets in Springfield, Ohio.
"I heard the things he was saying about us Mexicans," he recalled. "He’s let it go now — because now he’s going after the poor Haitians — but during the first campaign he painted us as rapists, diseased people, anything you can think of."
Saralegui also described Trump as "totally disingenuous" and said he would be casting his vote for Vice President Kamala Harris.
Guadalupe Ramírez, meanwhile, told Rolling Stone that she went into the town hall with an open mind but is now "99 percent" sure she's voting for Harris after she found Trump dishonest when he said that everyone in the United States really wanted the Supreme Court to overturn Roe v. Wade.
And participant Jorge Velázquez, although still undecided about who will get his vote, told Rolling Stone that Trump "didn’t give anyone convincing answers" during the session.
