Republican lawmaker's immigration ad and a voter's regrets point to Latino unease with Trump

Two reports look at signs of unease among Latino voters who backed President Donald Trump. NPR reports that Rep. María Elvira Salazar, a Republican, filmed an ad telling the president he has overreached on immigration. NPR describes the ad as reflecting worry among some Republicans that their gains with Latino voters could be at risk.

An AP report from Casa Grande, Arizona, profiles Chris Martinez, a 28-year-old maintenance technician who voted for Trump expecting a thriving economy and no wars. He says he now feels made a fool of and points to high gas prices as a source of his disappointment. AP frames the piece around the question of what Latino voters, who helped return Trump to the White House, will do next.
