And people call this man a racist. Ha.
Trump has never been a racist. He's a businessman. Open racism doesn't get you business. He may elect to hire the most eligible of people (which becomes racist by proxy due to political correctness demanding a diversity quota) but he himself harbors little, if any racial animosity.
Racists, like me, who sympathize with Trump's political campaign do so because they have no one else to vote for and him being the closest thing to a nationalist we've ever seen running for some time now, it's only natural the "bigoted" people would jump on the Trump train.
Also I live in California and further Mexicanizing this country will be disastrous.

Ancestry, not nationality really, as Curiel is an American national even if I don't personally see him as an American. But it's not so much Trump being racist as it is the shitlib media pressuring a cowed and cowardly GOP establishment into bashing Trump. It wore him down.
It does demonstrate the power of the press even at this stage if only due to its power to set and control the narrative. This is a problem.

This is exactly what literally Hitler would say.

Just their ethnicity.

It should be noted that 'Mexican' is not an ethnicity. It is best described as a nationality. I guess in this case it would be correct to say Trump was questioning whether Curiel is biased against him based on his ancestry.
And of course Muslims are not an ethnic group except I guess in combination with being a Muslim of Bosnian ancestry.

Are you kidding me? Cultural appropriation of an idea from the great civil rights leader. Clearly racist thievery.
