Maybe it feels that way to you because the usual MAGA mouthpieces haven't denounced Trump, but reality on the ground is different.

“This was just like a gift from the gods,” said Victor Martinez, an Allentown resident who owns the Spanish language radio station La Mega, noting some Puerto Rican voters in the area have been on the fence about voting at all.
“If we weren’t engaged before, we’re all paying attention now,” Martinez said. He added the morning radio show he hosts was chock-full of callers Monday sounding off on the Trump rally comments, including a Puerto Rican Trump supporter who is now telling people not to vote for the former president.
Pennsylvania has about 500k people of Puerto Rican descent. In 2020, Biden won Penn by about .2 percent, around 100k votes out of about 7 million total cast.
With races this close, every vote matters. Trump just took a giant dump on a huge very prideful voting block that Harris was underperforming with, a week before the election. That's why the Trump campaign, famous for always doubling down, took the notable rare step of rushing out a statement after the rally trying to distance Trump from the racist remarks. But Trump hasn't actually denounced the insults and Vance went with the "can't people take a joke" defence, so Puerto Ricans are just getting more pissed.
This shithead right wing comedian might have delivered this elections Comey "But Her Emails" letter. Single handedly tanking his god kings reelection for the lolz. Fucking ironic.
