I can’t explain it for the man in this video, I don’t know his story, and truthfully I don’t know a single latino person who would admit to having voted for Trump in any election for any reason.
In a more general sense, though, it’s often pretty straightforward. Modern misinformation / disinformation campaigns along with right-wing media control and dark money have been powerful tools in getting convenient lies delivered directly to swayable voters who otherwise aren’t politically savvy.
In the mean time, a lot of left aligned people have traditionally been of the mind that their political views are what’s best for the people of this country, so of course that means most people are going to vote for it because it’s what’s best for themselves. Instead of getting out on the streets, talking to strangers about politics, putting their money where their mouth is, they just assumed that good ideas themselves would do the heavy lifting.
Unfortunately, it’s been shown time and time again that good ideas and good intentions alone don’t sway or motivate unaffiliated / undecided voters.
So, when the dude in this video is seeing ads on TV/online/etc in his native language promising him that Trump will keep him safe, convincing him he’s in danger otherwise, and nobody on the left takes the time to really counter that message in a way that will actually reach him, then it’s really just a numbers game at that point, where he’s more likely just to believe the convenient lies he’s seeing/hearing – whether or not he’s stupid.

the DNC still lives in TV and radio - two dead mediums. It’s been over a decade now and they still can’t get their communication shit together. It’s really fucking simple. Any one of us here could run that org and deliver results better than they are.
Remember when Kamala was first out of the gate and her team was killing it on social media? It lasted about two weeks? Then the old Bidens got there and started huffing about how it wasn’t presidential or some shit. I dunno.
I still cannot fathom how people are this stupid
