If trump is a “failed” businessman, our country could use more failures.

Hispanics are Caucasian. How they can interactions with them be called racist?

One of many to come GOP-e scorched earth anti-TRUMP articles.

I hope everyone here realize that it doesn’t matter what Trump ACTUALLY said or what this woman says she encountered, but rather stories like this are all about the agenda:

White, Anglo Saxon Americans are racists and Trump caused it when he blamed MEXICANs for drugs, rapes and robberies.

It doesn’t matter that Trump didn’t say anything like that and was referring to illegals and the drug cartel/coyotes.

The idea is to put this falsehood into peoples minds and poison the well, and ensure no legal American who happens to be of Hispanic origin votes for Trump.

So, bottom line, she’s not stupid nor mistaken. She saying this crap very deliberately.

This is how the driveby media rolls.

1) Trump NEVER went after Hispanics. He went after illegal immigrants. That goes for Chinese, Pakistanis or whatever.

2)I know Hispanic US Citizens who are perfectly legal and whose families have been here for generations. To a man they have all experienced the occasional stupid white person asking them if they’re illegal. You will always have your percentage of random idiots, and when it happens these guys just laugh it off.

“The author (from the link) Her writing has been published by Bitch Magazine, Truthout and Jezebel.”

Well, I can understand her being on staff on the first one, but not the other two.

the fact that that a reality TV star and failed businessman

Literally stopped reading right there.

After reading that, the author proved they don't have a shred of intellect, but have an abundance of bias.

She looks like she can be cast as one of the walkers on the Walking Dead. No costume makeup since she already has it on.

So, her work has been featured in Truthout; a publication that also features the barely literate gasbag who we know as William Pitt. Will Pitt is the (nit) wit who declared that he had inside information on an indictment of Rove during the Valarie Plame flap.

“10 minutes earlier another stranger asked me if I spoke English”

I have worked in areas with heavy hispanic populations. I would ask 4 out of 5 hispanic people a question and get a shoulder shrug and ‘no no Inglés’

As far as questioning someone’s legal status i am kind of suspicious when an adult male has to look at a piece of paper in order to type his his S.S.# number in a time clock. Or, when someone can not speak a word of english or talks loud and incessantly in spanish in a break room.
Even then i can not absolutely prove anything. Although, probably the odds are about 1 in 4 workers probably have questionable legal status.

I’ve been mistaken for Mexican by both whites and Latinos but I never thought to be offended by it.

Well, there you go - you've experienced racism. It doesn't matter whether you realized it or not - you're a victim, a protected class, and therefore are due special treatment, favoritism and (gasp!) even reparations.

N-i-c--e- comeback.

Put a sock in it. Whites, especially white men, are blamed for everything. We don’t care to hear you whining anymore.

I'm so sick and tired of the "Latino Bund"....this ethnic solidarity act is getting stale.

And besides, they lie about everything....even themselves.

Wonder how many identities this senorita has....AND how many US govt checks the parasite is cashing.

Funny. I didn’t know “Latino” was a race.
