Couldn’t agree more @MarcAnthony . Trump’s treatment of Latinos HAS SUCKED and we’re not going back. Find an event near you (or make calls from your couch) to help put @KamalaHarris in the White House.https://t.co/Rvc9SlX4do https://t.co/kM7Xd4b1nZ— Luis A. Miranda, Jr. (@Vegalteno) October 18, 2024
