In a political age where Democrats rely heavily on identity politics to peddle socialism, by way of climate alarmism, their endgame is poised to unravel a particular demographic they have historically successfully dominated: Venezuelan-Americans. Back when Democrats were progressive and not socialist, they upset Cuban Americans with the botched Bay of Pigs invasion, and Cuba suffered since under communism. To this day Cuban Americans are more likely Republican, and several prominent Republicans have Cuban American heritage. Democrats face a similar splinter today that could see Venezuelan-Americans Republican for generations to come. President Trump is doing everything he can to make it happen.
The crisis in Venezuela shows no signs of getting better. Rather the country is on a course towards greater strife and possibly civil war. President Trump has demonstrated compassion with regards to the plight of the Venezuelans, perhaps unmatched in a long lasting humanitarian crisis. In September of 2017, Trump said “The problem in Venezuela is not that socialism has been poorly implemented, but that socialism has been faithfully implemented.” During the well-received State of the Union, Trump once again expressed compassion for the Venezuelans, vowing that America will never become a socialist nation.
Venezuelan-Americans are not ignorant to the fact that Venezuela was ruined by socialism. And perhaps they are opening their eyes to the Democrats and their allies blatantly endorsing the system that ruined Venezuela. Democrats are afraid of this. The New York Times issued a wake up call on the subject.
Venezuela, not Cuba, now dominates Miami’s political conversation. A television anchor not long ago ended a somber segment with a promise to keep praying for the troubled South American country. Venezuelans in the city have gathered for demonstrations to coincide with protests back home. Even the Miami-Dade County Commission, a local body with no control over foreign policy, voted unanimously to recognize the opposition leader Juan Guaidó as Venezuela’s interim president.
While Hispanics stereotypically lean Democrat, Hispanics are not as pan-ethnic as one might think, despite having a similar linguistic background. Hence Cuban Americans are more likely Republican. Florida is a notorious swing state Trump needs to win in order to gain a second term in 2020. Republicans put many eggs into the Florida basket in 2018, coming up victorious in the key races. Winning over Venezuelan-Americans could very well tip the scale in Republicans favor for generations.
But many Venezuelan exiles are exasperated to see Democrats opposed to intervening in the alarming humanitarian crisis in their country because of the lingering politics of the past.
It’s not just Jews alarmed by Rep. Omar’s words. Venzuelan-Americans are turned off by them. Democrats are slowly recognizing Maduro support as folly with top leaders such as Pelosi and Biden joining Trump on recognizing Guaidó. Still, will this be enough to keep Venezuelan-Americans blue? Trump’s strong policy on Venezuela is sure to strengthen his support within the community, even if they vote blue ballot down. Trump benefited largely from people who voted for Obama at least once and can similarly win a key demographic in a key state in a key election.
