Well, IF we're gonna go there: people like the descendants of the white supremacist Judge Leander Perez, George Romney and so on would ALL need to "leave" the US since when it get right down to it, they CAN claim "Hispanic". lol

Not all "Hispanic" people are Spanish speaking Indians from LatAm.

Except Judge Curiel is not "La Raza":

The Dishonest Attempt to Associate Gonzalo Curiel with "La Raza" | RedState

"What they are attempting to do is associate Curiel with the National Council of La Raza, the radical left-wing and pro-illegal-immigration group that has gained significant notoriety in the news over the years as a group that is both anti-American and open to fomenting violent pro-immigration protests.

Curiel, however, has no affiliation with this group whatsoever. He is a member of La Raza Lawyers of California – aka the Latino Bar Association of California. They have absolutely no affiliation with National Council of La Raza. As far as I can tell, they appear to be a pretty garden variety special interest lawyers association. Every state has these chapters for Hispanic lawyers, black lawyers, women lawyers, Mormon lawyers, Christian lawyers, Jewish lawyers – you name it, there is a lawyer association for it in every state. They have meetings, everyone comes and eat lunch together, and they serve pretty much exclusively the function of networking, which is the lifeblood of legal business generation."

They are NOT related anymore than the Black Caucus of Congress is related to the Black Panthers, even though both have the word black in their moniker. Or, any more than the Aryan Nation is the same as the United Nations.
I can't rep you, but great post.

Trump is acting very bizarre, I know that is to be expected but has gotten so shrill and over the top on his statements that he looks like he is ready to explode.

The interviews with him today are so bizarre I keep expecting him to pull metal beads out of his pocket like Captain Queeg.

I don't care for him at all but he has really gone beyond crazy and he's the candidate that won the nomination.


The democrats are split in half, Paul Ryan endorsed him and he felt a need for this, very strange.
His reactions and statements make no sense.

I do know this. Illegal Mexicans do not like Mexican Americans. If a legal Mexican American is hired, the illegals will threaten them and treat them like the enemy and will go so far as scaring them in the work place that they will have an accident happen to them. They are Mexicans first.They do not want to work with any Americans.

Some can't or won't accept to see the difference. But don't worry soon enough Trump will be making another comment that they will have to spin hard once again to try to make it pass as normal.
