Voter analysis in the wake of Donald Trump’s election as President last week has shown that he made gains this time around with numerous minority groups, including LGBTQIA+, Latinos, and Blacks. But yesterday, Chula Vista nonprofit The Undocumented Defense Fund announced perhaps the most surprising gain of all: Trump actually won a majority of the roughly 3 million votes cast by illegal immigrants. “Of course, everyone knows that illegal immigrants voting is a right-wing fiction, but even so, we were surprised by our findings,” said TUDF spokesman Alan Letemin. “Most of those who agreed to be surveyed cited the economy as their chief concern. The last jobs report showed just 12,000 jobs added in October. Illegals are finding themselves fighting for bottom of the barrel jobs against white people with college degrees. They risked everything to come to this country so they could find work and build a better life, and if this is the employment landscape they’re having to navigate, I guess it’s not surprising that they voted for the other guy. Even if the other guy wants to deport them.”
