In Hialeah, a city located in Florida and has a predominantly Spanish population that reaches 95%, only three citizens attended a recent municipal council session to express their opposition to cooperation between local authorities and the federal government aimed at enhancing compliance with the laws of migration.
In the same way, the Hyallea police departments, where three of four people were born abroad and Coral Gabbles, with a Spanish majority of Cuban descent, signed agreements with the US Immigration and Customs Service (ICE) with a very little obvious resistance.

Hialeah’s support for Donald Trump Immigration Policy
Increasing immigration arrests and an increase in deportations within Donald Trump’s Presidency can have a particularly significant impact in South Florida, a region that houses some of the largest communities in Cubans, Venezuelians and other Latinos in the United States.
However, in Hialeah, the answer to Trump’s immigration policies is significantly more comprehensive than his first term. This reflects a change in the position of the Latin electorate, which adopted a more conservative tendency, in addition to the notion that strict borderline measures are needed to ensure national security and immigration control.
“Trump’s deportations are not something personal,” says Latin Hyalea
“I understand that some feel betrayed because most of us choose it for the position,” says Frank Aylon, a 41 -year -old sales representative in Miami. “I think many of these people take it too personally. And it’s not personal. They just have to understand that this has been an open border for many years,” he said.
Ailon also supported Donald Trump’s criticism of former President Joe Biden, noting that his administration recorded record figures on illegal crosses at the border, although they were decreasing by the end of his term. Although Trump’s false claims during the 2020 election, Aylon now believes that the current president had a mandate with more actions he had once witnessed.
Donald Trump’s electoral victory in Florida
In 2024, Trump not only managed to win the Miami-Dad County, but also those of Seminole and Osceola, located in the center of Florida, a region that received many immigrants from Venezuela. In addition, he received prominent results in Pennsylvania regions with a significant Puerto Rican population. He also managed to conquer several border counties in South Texas, which have been the basin of the Democratic Party for several decades.
The factor that initially encouraged Trump’s popularity in South Florida was his position for socialist governments, from which many exiles and their families fled, in addition to their focus on promoting economic growth and reducing prices. However, at a rally in Miami, days before they announce their third White House candidacy in November 2022, Trump said that, unlike some, some people think, the Spaniards were attracted to their promises to fight illegal immigration.
