Just months after President Trump won a landslide in Florida's largest Venezuelan enclave, a new FIU survey obtained by WLRN shows that enthusiasm has eroded significantly among the state's Venezuelans. But it also shows a stark division: those who have been in the U.S. for 15 years or longer tend to remain supportive of Trump.
