Trump needs a mouth governor or something.
As I have said before. Let people be held responsible for their speech. No people act like being held responsible for what they say is PC. please you are not against PC.

He has not just alienated the Hispanic vote--he has galvanized the Hispanic community. Good going Trump.

"As for Trump, I will quote the eloquence that only the NY Daily News can invoke: “Vaya Clown Dios.

New Yorkers have had to put up with this bozo for years. Now the rest of the country can feel the full force of his idiocy.

Since almost every Latino hates Mexicans from my own personal experience I doubt what he says will matter but he won't win the GOP nomination anyway.

Wishful thinking -- if he's making anyone nervous, it is the GOP. Nobody has 'shut up.' Trump is just much louder and crasser than the others.

Yep and it scares the crap out of them. He is going to liven up the debates. They will have to find a way to not sound crazy but not alienate the base. Donald Keep talking Hilary is loving this. This almost guarantees a Hispanic VP pick for Hilary.

But he did not just offend Mexicans. He offended Hispanics from the US and many other countries. And because their is an Hispanic 'pecking order,' and Hispanics from a Cuban or Salvadoran background complain about Hispanics from other countries, such as Mexico, don't be fooled into thinking they will not unite.

You know how it goes--the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Trump won't win GOP norm anyway, Trump is a smart guy and he likes to stir the pot and start debates, he is acting like a white Jesse Jackson, Trump has some truth in what he says but he does not phrase it well and comes across as a boorish arrogant idiot.
