Donald Trump's Wednesday night speech full of hard-line views on immigration prompted one member of his National Hispanic Advisory Council to resign, Politico reported.

Jacob Monty resigned from the board following the Phoenix speech, telling Politico that he was disappointed in the rhetoric Trump used in Phoenix.

"I was a strong supporter of Donald Trump when I believed he was going to address the immigration problem realistically and compassionately," he told Politico. “What I heard today was not realistic and not compassionate.”

Another Latino surrogate for Trump, Alfonso Aguilar, also told Politico that he was disappointed by Trump's speech.

“It’s so disappointing because we feel we took a chance, a very risky chance,” Aguilar, who organized Latino conservatives to support Trump in a letter, told Politico. “We decided to make a big U-turn to see if we could make him change. We thought we were moving in the right direction … we’re disappointed. We feel misled.”

“I can tell you there’s a real possibility we will withdraw support from Donald Trump because of that disappointing speech," he added.

1. He can't and won't change.

He might try to pretend to change in some speeches, but his rally speeches revert to the same old thing. He loves himself and thinks he's right so why would he change.
