Incoming border czar Tom Homan weighed in Thursday on Newsmax on the potential political repercussions of the Great Replacement Theory for the Democratic Party, and he said it could bolster support for President-elect Donald Trump.
During an appearance on âFinnerty,â Rob Finnerty asked Homan about the Great Replacement Theory and whether it could backfire on the Democrats. Homan said Trump has significant support from Hispanic voters, and that suggests a similar pattern could emerge in future electoral cycles. Homan said that Trumpâs appeal might be rooted in his stance on safety and law enforcement, priorities that resonate with many in the Hispanic community.
âA lot of Hispanics like Donald Trump because he believes in a safe America. He wants to, you know, push down at-large crime. He wants to make our community safer. And, again, most immigrant families, when they come here illegally, theyâre here illegally and they got a problem and theyâre not off the table during the Trump administration as far as being deported,â Homan said.
Homan said that once immigrants settle in the U.S., regardless of their legal status, their desire for safety mirrors that of other residents.

âOnce theyâre here, they donât want predators in the neighborhood either. They donât want, they donât want sex offenders. They donât want someone to commit to DUI driving, driving through their neighborhoods either. And thatâs why weâre going to concentrate on public safety threats first,â Homan added.
Homan said this is why many in the immigrant community, even those undocumented, support prioritizing public safety threats over blanket deportation policies.
âEven the immigrant community would rather have ICE working in the jails, but these sanctuary cities wonât let us in the jails,â Homan said.
