Mexico Just Hilariously Trolled US Soccer Fans Thanks to Donald Trump

Mexico Just Hilariously Trolled US Soccer Fans Thanks to Donald Trump

When Donald Trump announced his candidacy for president, he trolled Mexico with his criminals-and-rapists rant. Now Mexico is trolling right back in hilarious fashion.

The United States and Mexico will face off at the Rose Bowl on October 10 to decide which team will go to the 2017 Confederations Cup, a major World Cup warm-up tournament. Every game between the two neighbors is a hatefest, so Azteca Deportes, the Mexican TV channel that's airing the game, used clips from Trump's announcement speech to mock Mexico's US opponents.

"We don't have victories anymore," Trump says as footage rolls of Mexican players scoring goal after goal against the US. "The American dream is dead," he continues, as the Mexican team lifts the North American championship trophy they easily won this summer after the US suffered an embarrassing loss in the semifinals. The ad even reminds Trump who Mexico is actually sending to the US instead of the criminals he claims: The ad shows Cuauhtémoc Blanco, Giovano Dos Santos, and other Mexican soccer stars who have come to play in the US—and often been among the best players in America's own league.

Watch the video, laugh, and then cheer on the US to a win against Mexico on October 10.

This is completely appropriate D.U. fare, as all DEMOCRATS here would know.

George Lopez’s Mexican Donald Trump Wants to ‘Make Mexico Great Again’
by Andrew Husband | 12:58 pm, September 9th, 2015

Donaldo Trumpez hopes to “Make Mexico Great Again” in the latest satirical video from the folks over at Funny or Die.

Comedian George Lopez plays the Mexican version of the 2016 GOP presidential contender Donald Trump, and he’s not at all happy with the state of things in Mexico. Why? Honestly, because of all the Americans who keep coming to his country who are making it worse:


“The first thing I’m going to do is build a wall on the border of the United States to keep out the Americans, who are coming here and ruining Mexico… Let me tell you something. When the United States sends their people, they’re not sending their best. They’re sending people with lots of problems. They only come to Mexico to watch a show with a donkey, and to watch women lift their tops. Mexico is more than that!”


Trumpez also notes that it was Mexico, after all who “gave America Salma Hayek.”

Check out the clip below, courtesy of Funny or Die:
