Seriously, he would.
So, I guess that's where this comes in. He would probably prefer to be in room of Latino celebrities. He pretty much knows how to talk to all sorts of people and he doesn't give AF. But, I could see where someone is Latino and they're sent to a white neighborhood. I do have Latina friends who do have issues in white areas. It's a real thing.

Express diversity, MAGA hates diversity America doesn't uponit7771 Jul 26 #85
yeah, I kinda' think it draws unnecessary lines NJCher Jul 26 #12
The groups themselves were drawing the lines. It started with Black sorority members, one of the most organized WhiskeyGrinder Jul 26 #13

To show the diversity of support IronLionZion Jul 26 #23
i believe it comes from the fact that white women voted from sick fuck in much greater numbers than black women. mopinko Jul 26 #24
No one is calling anyone out. They are calling themselves in, organizing, and acting on it. WhiskeyGrinder Jul 26 #29
That is exactly the yobrault1 Jul 26 #33
I doubt it even started that way - Kamala is in AKA (traditionally black sorority) TBF Jul 26 #45
