New Census Data Show US Becoming More Diverse
By Victor Landa, NewsTaco (1.5 minue read) 
This may be why the Caucasian voters at Trump rallies have become angry-white voters:
The county is getting browner. At least, that’s what the latest U.S. Census numbers tell us.
The Census released its annual count of the U.S., population – updates, really, of the formal decennial counts – yesterday. I assume the numbers have changed across the board because these are from July of 2016. So they’re a year old.
Here’s the thing, if we apply the 2016 percentage of growth of U.S. Latinos to 2017 we get 61.1 million. But that’s getting ahead of ourselves.
These numbers prove, to an extent, what trump voters are upset about and why they like his nativist rhetoric.
