Disclaimer: In no way is the following comment an endorsement or
statement of support for Donald Trump. That said:

What did he say that is "racist" in nature? He erroneously claimed
that
the Mexican government exports criminals, rapists and drug dealers to
the USA. He didn't say anything derogatory about Mexicans in general.

He's wrong of course, but I don't see he statement as "racist".
He's against illegals, but so is the majority of the US population.

Harry thinks everyone is a racist.
It is just short hand for "I disagree with them".
I totally disagree with the assertion but I think Trump is just trying
to appeal to the hard hat gang and that crosses racial lines.
I think the anti-immigrant demographic is the "working class" who feel
their job may be in danger.
The ironic thing is, down here, the Latinos are actually doing jobs
Americans will not do. When it is 95 in the shade, you need someone
who is used to working in the heat. Those northern white boys are not
going to be able to deal with it.
A guy who was raised in central Mexico never knew anything else.

The Mexicans I've hired and seen working seem to have a tremendous
work ethic. I've
no problem with legal Mexican immigrants. Just their legality shows
they're willing
to put forth a lot of effort to get something accomplished.

The illegals? Well, they've already broken the law once.

The liberals would much rather leave the distinction out of their
comments. Trump
referred to *illegals*, but the liberal media continues to apply his
comments to
*all* Mexicans. This whole episode is showing how the liberal media
can inflame a
situation as it desires.

I agree with you. The dishonesty is just written off as being "politics".

You guys think that Trump is only referring to illegals? Get up to speed
on GOP "coding."
