A Latino or Latina who betrays their own people by siding with a political party that works against their people's safety and self interest. Someone who counts his own people on a clipboard on behalf on some other social group.
He is advocating for killing migrants at the border. A clipboard Latino. No doubt he will be holding a clipboard when he counts us as we are being loaded onto the ICE vans and taken away or shot on sight.

The word Latino is not to be confused with dumb people of spain, portugal or other european countries with latin languages like spanish or italian, who think they are latinos because of their language.
The word latino is used for people of latin america. "gringos" is the word who is used for white people like americans or europeans.
it isn't cool if you say, you are latino if you aren't of one of these countries:
brasil
bolivia
argentinia
venezuela
colombia
peru
ecuador
paraguay
uruguay
chile
puerto rico
cuba
panama
nicaragua
honduras
el salvador
guatemala
dominican republic
mexico

Nowadays, the term Latino is used to describe somebody who originates from a Spanish-speaking country in Latino America.
Some things to take note about Latinos is that ANYONE can be Latino regardless of race, because Latino is an emphasizer of ethnicity. From a pale-skinned ginger from Mexico to a dark-skinned curlyhead from Puerto Rico, we are all Latinos whose land was colonized by the Spaniards.
(Except for the Guianas and Brazil because they were colonized by the Portuguese and British. As a result, they’re associated with South America, but not LATINO America)
Second note, no, Spaniards are not Latino. They are Hispanic because they’re also a Spanish-speaking country, but they are not Latino—they’re Europeans.
Third note, no, the French and the Italians and whoever else is European with Latin roots—they’re not Latino either! They are Latin, yes, but that is a separate term and they do not originate from Latino America. (Nor do they speak Spanish.)
Aaand that sums up a Latino.

Girl 1: “So, like… what are you?”
Girl 2: “Oh, I’m a Latino! I was born in El Salvador.”
Girl 1: “Oh? I thought you were White?”
Girl 2: “Well… that too. That makes me a White Latina.”
Girl 1: “Oh.”

A person born in Latin America, or that has heritage in Latin America. Latin America includes South America, Central America, and the 3 Hispanic-Caribbean Islands: Cuba, Puerto Rico, and Dominican Republic. ONLY people from Latin America are Latinos. Spaniards, Italians, and Portugues are NOT latino whatsoever. their languages are latin-derived, but they are not part of latin america, therefore, they are not latinos. the word Latino does NOT mean descendent of the latins from the roman empire; it literally means people from Latin America.
Latinos can be of any race and skin color. There are black latinos, white latinos, and indigenous latinos. There are also many mixed-raced latinos (mestizos, mulattos, afro-mestizos). many latinos descend from the African slaves brought to Latin America, the Spanish conquistadores, and/or the Indigenous peoples. many people of many different races have immigrated to Latin America throughout history; they too are Latinos. ex: Shakira is of Lebanese descent, but her family immigrated to Colombia, where she was born. she is an Arab Latina.

Person1: I'm Latino, my family is from El Salvador.
Person2: "I'm Latino too! I'm Italian."
Person1: "Italy is not in Latin America...you're not Latino"
Person2: "Are you serious?? I've been living a lie"

A Latino is a person from Latin American, or a person of Latin American descent. Latin America consists of all of South America, Central America, Mexico, Haiti, and the three Caribbean islands where Spanish is the official language (Cuba, Puerto Rico, and Dominican Republic). Although Italians, Spaniards, Portuguese people, and certain other European groups speak a Latin-derived language and/or are descendents of Latin people, they are not "Latinos", because the term "Latino" is nowadays used to specifically refer to people from Latin America or of Latin American descent. Latin America is a melting pot, therefore Latinos can be of any racial background and can look like anything.
