Did Mitt Romney Seriously Just Wear Brownface to Appear on Univision?
LatestLast night, Mitt Romney appeared on Univision to promote his flailing candidacy to a group of Americans that pretty strongly doesn’t like him: Latinos. But wait a gosh darn second â Mittens looked suspiciously, dramatically tanner and oranger than he normally looks. Could it be that his makeup artist was trying to bronze him to the point of Latino relatability? Did Mitt Romney fucking seriously just wear brown makeup so Latin voters might think he’s tan enough to support?
During his appearance, Romney attempted to make inroads with Latino voters, who Romney desperately needs if he wants to win the election. Unfortunately, Latinos aren’t really into Mitt Romney; 60% of Latino voters say they are Obama supporters while Romney has the vote of a paltry 30%. To Latino voters, the near-consensus seems to be that Romney is an off-putting weirdo who supports shitty, racist immigration policies.
