For those who missed it, racist now means "advocates on behalf of the people of his country, regardless of race".

LOL, yeah that's it. Its not like he's called all the Mexicans drug dealers and rapists, oh and I'm sure there's a few good ones. Oh wait .... yea that's exactly what he did. You can pretend that's not racist, but people with two brain cells to rub together know better.

Against my better judgment but...
he was talking about Mexican illegal immigrants, not all Mexicans
he clearly meant "some of them" not "all of them" (they can't all be rapists if some are good people) and the fact that you're trying to ignore that indicates you're not arguing in good faith
many of those coming do bring drugs
an absurdly high proportion of the women are raped during their passage so yes, many of the men are rapists

when did he call all the Mexicans drug dealers and rapists?
