In his latest showdown, Donald Trump ordered Univision anchor Jorge Ramos out of a news conference Tuesday, telling him to “go back to Univision.”
Ramos, who like Trump is known for his confrontational style, didn’t back down until he was escorted out of the room by security. Eventually, Ramos was invited back, where he sparred with Trump over the Republican candidate’s immigration proposals.
Trump has had some high-profile tiffs with media figures recently, battling publicly with Fox News Channel anchor Megyn Kelly, and on Tuesday with the network’s chairman, Roger Ailes.
But prodding Ramos, who has been called the Spanish-language Walter Cronkite, could prove dangerous for Trump, who thus far been something of a Teflon candidate. Here’s why:

Trump doesn’t need the illegal alien vote...so move on LA Times.
I think Trump showed unreal restraint, plus in the end actually scored points. They left almost cordially.
Right because Jorge may stop being fair to Trump. LOL!
Wow, what an unbiased, even-handed article. I did not realize Hor-Hay was a saint. I just thought he was a noisy leftist anti-American punk.
Yeah, this interchange probably helped Trump with Hispanics. The guy was obviously out of line to everyone but those whose brains are on life support.
This is what will give Trump even more exposure and barrel him over 40%.
Ramos does not have the right to hog all the press time for himself. He is one of the little people and should know his place.
Ramos? He is some kind of media king? Bull crap.
Ramos should have been tazed . Repeatedly
“Uh...it was Ramos who picked the fight.”
As with the Kelly situation, Trump didn’t initiate that one either.
Just like islam, communist liberals view lying is acceptable so long as it advances their agenda.
Truth simply doesn’t matter.
ROTFLMAO
The Donald did not pick a fight. He responded, and probably with a great deal more class and perspicuity that anyone at the LA Times could possibly imagine.
Jorge Ramos, media star, is no journalist, but he is definitely an activist. Is anyone sure that that was not a prearranged deal? It seemed to be staged to give The Donald the moment comparable to when Ronaldus Magnus told the newspaper editor, “I am paying for this microphone, Mr. Green.” (A subtle aside, there, the moderator in question was actually a Mr. Jon Breen. A small but calculated rebuke.)
You can’t BUY publicity like that.
I think it’s the other way around - Trump won’t be intimidated by race pimps.
I hope he sends out a little tweet asking Jorge, a dual citizen, where his allegiance lies.
Blah blah blah...I’ll bet hardly anybody outside of California knows who he is. Never heard of him until this.
Media Star??? In whose perverted world?

From Yahoo;
“ Citizenship benefits. A dual citizenship means that you will enjoy the citizenship advantages of both countries. This can mean, for example, that you qualify for pensions or other benefits in both countries. It will also generally mean that you will be able to vote in both countries. “
Don’t know if it’s correct though. My BIL traveled back to Turkey just to vote against Erdogan.
