2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumLatino Trump surrogate just now on MSNBC just now. Whoa.
This guy just said (paraphrased) "my (i.e. Mexican) culture is a dominant culture and it's causing problems, and if you don't do something about it you're going to have taco trucks at every corner."
WTF???? Where do they find these people.

(20,709 posts)blah blah blah, but basically he came out and said, yeah, Trump hates Mexicans, and that's a good things because Mexicans are horrible.
Unreal.

(5,611 posts)Mexicans are some kind of dangerous, "existential" threat to our culture, and they make claims that Mexicans can't assimilate and are like some terroristic invasion force from the Middle East. One would think that their fellow "Christians" would embrace Mexican immigrants but of course that isn't the case.

What I want to know is how Trump and his minions are going to do about all the undocumented aliens who are here from countries in Europe or Asia - I suspect they outnumber those from Mexico and Central America.

An old angry man who claims to have had a disease that started when he was a baby turning his skin color from white to black, he disassociates himself from other African Americans as much as possible as a result of this excuse, and is outspoken in his support of what Huey calls the "white supremacist power structure."

(3,284 posts)His eyes kept darting around, and he looked ashamed of what he was saying. It made me feel kind of bad for him. Can you imagine the way he's probably treated by the Trump people he has to deal with all the time? I'm sure he's heard some nasty things he wasn't meant to hear. I'm guessing he's doing it for the money.

(5,611 posts)that yell racial slurs during his bonfires -- oh I mean rallies -- would die if Mexican restaurants and Taco Bell were closed down. For all of their bizarre hatred of Mexicans, they sure love Mexican food and help themselves to it in vast quantities.
This guy sounds like an absolute moron. What an unbelievably stupid and racist comment for him to make. A taco truck on every corner -- isn't that the free market in practice that the Trumpers love so much? Our new Mexican overlords will force us to eat tacos everyday? What a hideous future! Snort.

I thought EXACTLY the same thing: Gutierrez is Trump's Mexican Judenrat.
It also occurred to me that he might actually own a fleet of taco trucks, and may actually be afraid of "taco trucks on every corner".... And, as a Republican, he's just trying to limit competition through legislation.

However, a different story http://www.pri.org/stories/2016-06-06/trump-dad-and-his-bernie-daughter-clash-immigrants-rights
says ""We just have to legalize ourselves," says Marco Gutierrez, who migrated from Mexico in the 1980s and went several years, including time back in Mexico, before gaining legal status in the US. He agrees with Trump, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, who wants to send millions of unauthorized immigrants back to their country of origin, permitting them to return to the US only after their papers are squared away. "The process of legalization is going to be hard work, but they need to do it," he said at a Trump rally in San Jose on Thursday. " (It sounds as if he may have spent some time here in the 1980's without proper documentation.)
At least his 14-year-old daughter has more common sense than her dad:
..."But Emilia, his daughter, calls that reasoning "complete bull."
" Immigrants) have been here very long. They've already made a life here," she says. "They don't have a life back in Mexico. You really want to send them back?"
.........
His daughter rejected the idea that some people are "illegal."
"The thing is nobody, not one person, is illegal," she says. "If you want to think about it like that, then the whites are illegal. Mexico was here first. They moved to California first. What is up with that? And there's so much racial prejudice against everybody. Donald Trump, I don't see him helping at all with that.".....
