As Trump makes a last-minute trip to meet with Mexico’s president, it’s important to note his past disrespect for Mexico and its people–reminders of his never-ending unpresidential comments. Trump began his campaign by calling Mexican immigrants “rapists.” When faced with backlash for his countless anti-Latino comments, he tweeted a tone-deaf, offensive picture of himself eating […]
Mexican political leaders have been remarkably blunt about how they feel about The Donald’s bigotry and insults. In fact, Trump’s bigoted rhetoric has drawn the strong condemnation of Mexico’s three most recent presidents.
After “more than a year of mocking” Mexico, Trump is going to meet with Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto. Not surprisingly, the reaction so far isn’t great.

Unfortunately, none of the Republican candidates have presented a serious plan for comprehensive immigration reform—rather, they’ve spent their time fear-mongering and outright rejecting any path to citizenship.

Last night at the Univision Democratic debate, Bernie Sanders was asked by moderators to respond to a video clip that showed him praising Cuban dictator, Fidel Castro. Instead of denouncing Castro, Sanders “failed to distance himself sharply” from the brutal leader and even attempted to justify the regime by saying, “They have made some good […]
Tonight, when asked if he supported the nativist hate group Minutemen, Bernie Sanders said, “Of course not […] I do not support vigilantes, and that is a horrific statement and unfair statement to make.” And while Sanders tries to portray himself as a lifelong advocate for immigrants, his voting history paints a very different picture: […]
