  • Now, in addition to his troubles with women,

  • Donald Trump is struggling with another key demographic--

  • Latinos.

  • And I don't understand. Come on, Latinos--

  • how could you guys hate Trump?

  • He's the same color as your queso.

  • -(laughter) -The question is,

  • does Trump have any shot with Latinos?

  • For more on this, we're joined by our brand-new

  • s... senior Latino contributor, Eliza Cossio, everybody!

  • (cheering, applause)

  • Thanks, Trevor.

  • Excited to be here.

  • Quick shout-out to my family

  • and all my drug-dealing, rapist buds back in Mexico.

  • Te quiero mucho. I miss you guys.

  • Oh, okay, well, Eliza,

  • obviously, Trump has not been very friendly to Mexicans,

  • so how do you feel

  • now that he's the presumptive Republican nominee?

  • Well, speaking as a Latina, bad.

  • But speaking as an American, very bad.

  • -(laughter) -It's weird to see the GOP

  • slowly embracing Trump, considering how desperately

  • they need the Latino vote.

  • Republicans, a couple years ago,

  • did this autopsy where they said,

  • we need to do better with Hispanics...

  • Trump is the exact opposite

  • of what Republicans were hoping for.

  • NEWSMAN: According to our ABC News-Washington Post poll,

  • 81% of Hispanics disapprove of Trump.

  • It's like the Spice Girls said:

  • If you want to be my lover

  • Can't deport all my friends

  • And then make them pay for a wall

  • Friendship never ends. ♪

  • -Nice! -Ah, yeah, yeah.

  • (cheering, applause)

  • Great song.

  • But somehow, Republicans went with the guy

  • Latinos hate the most.

  • And we're not a hateful people.

  • Even our public beatings end with candy.

  • (laughter)

  • By the way, I know it looks weird

  • that I was at a kids' birthday party,

  • but don't worry, I was not invited.

  • (laughter)

  • Oh, uh, okay, so, um, if Latinos don't like Trump,

  • then can't they just vote Democrats?

  • That's not the point, Trevor.

  • Latinos and Republicans have a deal--

  • once every four years, they pretend to care about us,

  • and we're like, "Oh, my God, really? Me? No!"

  • And then they're like, "Yeah, you're right, no."

  • -(laughter) -And then we vote Democrat.

  • It's a time-honored tradition,

  • like a quinceanera or a Kinko de Mayo.

  • -You mean Cinco de Mayo. -No, a Kinko de Mayo.

  • It's where we all get together

  • and fax a bunch of (bleep) at Kinko's.

  • (laughter)

  • Last year, I woke up naked on top of a flatbed scanner.

  • I don't even know what that means.

  • I (bleep) a scanner, Trevor.

  • (laughter)

  • The point is... with Trump as a nominee,

  • the Democrats don't have to work for our vote.

  • So wait, is there any way that Trump could become

  • a viable option for Latino voters?

  • Yes. And he doesn't even need to stop hating Mexicans.

  • All he needs to do is reframe his message a little.

  • Like, "Hey, Mexico, you're drug dealers,

  • "you're rapists, you're doctors, you're lawyers.

  • Wow! Is there anything you guys can't do?!"

  • Come on, Eliza, I mean, do you really think that's gonna work?

  • I think Trump has a lot of potential with Latino voters.

  • I mean, he's basically a telenovela character

  • come to life.

  • He's crazy and unpredictable,

  • and he has something no other candidate does.

  • La Pasión del Donaldo.

  • -♪ ♪ -ANNOUNCER: Tonight on...

  • I found this in your room.

  • (dramatic music plays)

  • I forbid you to see that... racist man!

  • Papa, you don't understand!

  • (guitar strums)

  • I've made my choice, and it's...

  • ♪ ♪

  • ¡El Donaldo!

  • Not in mi casa!

  • Adios! Now I fall into a coma.

  • -(imitates flatline tone) -Papa! No...!

  • (deep, distorted): No...!

  • ♪ ♪

  • (cheering, applause)

  • Wow, I...

  • I don't even know what that was.

  • -Did you like it? -I mean, I guess.

  • Uh, good, because I already made 128 more episodes.

  • -Yay... -Yay.
