Latinos for Trump (Spanish: Latinos para Trump) is a coalition of Latino supporters of Donald Trump, formed in the U.S. state of Florida in June 2019.[10] As of the 2024 presidential election cycle it has expanded beyond Florida with an active presence nationally, especially in the Southwest, Puerto Rico, and the Mexican American community.[11][12][13]

As in any election cycle, the Latino vote is split between candidates across the political spectrum.[14] Although the vast majority of Latinos for Trump support came from Hispanic and Latino conservatism, some liberals identified shared priorities.[15]
