First he wasn't referencing undocumented immigrants. He said Mexico isn't sending their best. He was directly speaking about Mexican immigrants in general
But the distinction you pretend he was making doesn't matter.
Saying illegal immigrants from Mexico are rapists and criminals is still racist.
Trump was referencing illegal immigrants from the start. Again he likes Mexico and the people but has no tolerance for the illegals crossing the border. Not sending your best is not equivalent to being a racist at all, not sure your thought process on that one. I mean if my kids bring home friends I don't like 90% of the time because of whatever reason and I tell my kids that they aren't bringing home the "best" does that make me a racist against children? All it means are that there are better ones out there but the majority of the time the wrong ones keep coming over.

No he wasn't. I don't care what you think trump feels about Mexicans. His words are racist and only appeals to racists.
Your rationalizations of the meaning of his racist words are inadequate, meaning they arent up to the task.

The few good answers Trump gave will always be over shadowed by him down right disrespecting the reporter, dodging the questions he was uncomfortable with answering, and babbling on the remainder of the questions.

Regular politicians do only the latter two and not the first, which is the most entertaining.
You didn't hear what he said, but go ahead. I know the specifics don't matter, it's the racism that so many love.
They are thinking" hey Trump is against those Mexicans and thinks they are rapists and criminals just like I do. "
I just wish more Americans were paying close attention to what conservatives believe.
Start with yourself. Actually listen and study what conservatives believe, not what you are told they believe or have decided they believe. BTW, you should consider not stating what others believe when you actually don't know what they believe, but have all by your self decided what they believe (usually incorrectly).
Standing up to the media is about the only thing to like about him at this point. The fact is, this guy has been ALL OVER the map in the past 15 years. Most of what he has said he is for in the past, is not Conservative. He even praised and gave money to Hillary (which funny enough, she wont give back). I can't tell if he is in this to screw over the GOP or what. The bottom line is, people on the right who are so giddy that he's standing up against illegal immigration need to get back down to earth. He is NOT Conservative. He's been more a Progressive than anything. Get off the Trump bandwagon and fast.
Ever notice when one KNOWS they are on the loosing side, they ALWAYS stoop to name calling?
How petty and childish., and Stewart is no different.
Mr.Trump should just ignore crap like this , and not feed their ego.

I do listen to what conservatives believe coming out of the mouths and writing of conservatives.
I am not stating what others believe. What Donald Trump said was racist. If conservatives are the main ones supporting his words then, it's valid to say they love the racism.
