Florida Politics reports:
Ex-President Donald Trump’s campaign to retake the White House this November just launched a rebranded coalition of Latino supporters called Latino Americans for Trump. Many notable political players from the Sunshine State, particularly Miami, are on board.
Topping the list of members to the group, formerly called “Latinos for Trump,” is U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio. He said Trump “is not going to play petty politics” while seeking a second term as the most powerful person in America.
“President Trump understands the challenges Hispanic Americans are facing under the (Joe) Biden administration. Everything costs more. Our communities aren’t safe. And the world is on fire,” he said. “His focus is on rebuilding this country and making life better for you and your family.”

The group has “rebranded” because its former state director, Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio, is currently serving 22 years in federal prison for his role in the attack on the US Capitol.
The real estate investor who first formed the group lives in Trump Tower, where he’s been seen dining with French fascist leader Marine Le Pen.
