 The Mar-a-Lago Wave
The FBI raid on Trump’s estate has increased the chances of a red wave in November.

For most of 2022, Democratic voters have been far more ambivalent about participating in the fall midterms than their Republican counterparts. According to conventional Beltway wisdom, however, that enthusiasm gap has been narrowed by the recent Roe v. Wade ruling and the Jan. 6 hearings. It’s probable, though, that last Monday’s FBI raid on former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate will reestablish the Republican advantage. This unprecedented action will likely energize GOP voters and drown any increase in Democratic enthusiasm beneath a red tsunami.

The first poll to measure public response to the raid indicates that it has galvanized Republicans and Independents. A new survey conducted by the Trafalgar Group for Convention of States Action found that 83.3 percent of GOP voters and 71.7 percent of Independent voters are more motivated to vote in the midterms than they were before the FBI descended on Mar-a-Lago. Moreover, when asked who they believed was behind the FBI action, 76.7 percent of Republicans answered, “Trump’s political enemies,” and 53.9 percent of Independents agreed. A mere 11.9 percent of Democrats said that the search was politically motivated.

The survey also breaks down responses by ethnicity in the crosstabs, and the news isn’t good for Democrats. The share of Hispanics who said the Mar-a-Lago raid increased their motivation to vote in the midterms was a whopping 80 percent, while 69.9 percent said it was initiated by Trump’s political enemies. This suggests that this episode may well accelerate the increasing tendency of Hispanics to vote Republican. Their exodus from the Democratic Party began in earnest during the last election and it isn’t limited to any geographic location. As Ruy Teixeira of the American Enterprise Institute writes at the Wall Street Journal:

This slippage happened all over the country in 2020 and among all the different ethnicities lumped under the Hispanic label. The Democratic advantage among Hispanic voters in the presidential election declined 28 points in Florida, 18 points in Texas and Wisconsin, 16 points in Nevada, 12 points in Pennsylvania and 10 points in Arizona. Nationwide, the Democratic margin was down 26 points among Cubans, 18 points among Puerto Ricans, 16 points among Dominicans, 12 points among Mexicans and 18 points among other Hispanic ethnicities.

Though Trump could hardly be called a rock ribbed conservative, he has nonetheless been good for conservatives in his first term. Whether you consider America Firsters as nationalists or something else, at its core America first is part of modern conservatism.

Not surprising

A lot of these Hispanics probably fled from countries where the governments went after political opponents in this fashion and they don’t want to see that here

Same goes for Russians and others in that region. I’ve worked with them many years in the health care field and I can tell you they love America and capitalism, and the culture that drew them here, as much as any red blooded patriotic American.

I’ve worked with three Russian doctors and my experience with them is the same as yours

If this indeed happens in the 2022 midterms, watch the rest of that wall go up QUICKLY before the 2024 election...
