In a 3-2 vote, the councilmembers — all of whom are Hispanic — rejected the resolution proposed by city councilwoman and vice mayor Sandra Ruiz, a Mexican immigrant. Those voting against the resolution said they did not condone Trump's comments, but did not want to politicize the council's work.

Me thinks she is “Legal”. But she obviously has no problem with illegals AND legals flooding the country, lowering American wages, and adding burden to the already over-loaded entitlements and welfare.

Hispanics aren’t a monolithic block, as the creeps in the media would have us believe.. A lot of them agree with Trump.

The third or so of Hispanics who are conservative and vote Republican are not in favor of open borders and amnesty, something the Chamber of Cronies and their DC whores don’t understand.

I wonder what the make of the council is? Because Cubans and Puerto Ricans hate Mexicans.

vice mayor Sandra Ruiz, a Mexican immigrant


How much you want to bet this punta is a wetback and not an immigrant?

But of course here we have again an article that does not know the difference between an illegal invader and an immigrant. Just like 90% of America that has bought onto the immigrant BS line.

Kick the wetback out of our Country.

Thank-you. As a Cuban friend recently said to me, "We may all be Latino, but we are not all from the same clan."

That subset of Hispanics is likely heavily Cuban. Cubans and Mexicans are not always fond of one another.
