True, but Cubans are the only Hispanic group I know of that lean Republican as a whole.
It's because they had terrible experiences under Castro and vehemently hate communism. Since they believe the lies that the Democrats are communist or socialist, they default to the "conservative" party.
As a whole, sure, but there are still Republican Hispanics here and there. They do exist. And even bigger groups of Republican Black's and Asians amd Indians. The internet thinks that only white folks can be Republicans and that is simply not true which is especially infuriating when those same people always get race-baited into issues. They need to understand that sometimes Republicans do things simply because they are assholes, and not necessarily because they are racist assholes.
