Trump Calling Mexicans Rapists

"When Mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best. ... They're sending people that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems with us. They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good people,"

June 2015.

when lib'ruls go to the polls, they aren't sending us their very best......They're sending people that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems with us. They're bringing drugs. They're bringing fraud. They're bringing sexual predators. None, I assume, are good people........
 
Of course he didn't call all Mexicans rapists. Even Donald knows better than that. However he was painting them with that charge. Think of Mexican, think of rapist. It was insulting. Some white people are rapists. TRump may be ,or came close. So fear old white ,rich people.
 
The original premise was did he call mexicans rapists. He did. The rightys changed it to "did he call them ALL rapists. He did not. But he connected rape and mexicans a few times.

I am pretty sure whites, blacks, and Asians have raped a few times as well...
 
Not a fucking agenda, just a fact . He said it several times. Nor did he say all. that is a right wing escape clause. You can change the subject with that silly trick. We will now argue about whether he said all. As far as I know, he did not say all. This is arguing with a teenager.

It is best to look at Trump's own words in their coorect context, so here they are. You can see EXACTLY who he called rapists.

“When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”

Now, let's have a closer look at this:

In the first sentence, he is talking about people who he alleges that Mexico sends, and he has excluded "Mexico's best" from the people who he is talking about. This first sentence clearly shows that Trump was not commenting on "all" Mexicans, just the people who Mexico sends who are not also not Mexico's best.*

Ok, next sentence. "They're not sending you, they're not sending you", sounds like it is open to interpretation, but the one thing we do know is that he is not talking about Mexico's best, or all Mexicans.

The next sentence really narrows things down as far as who he is talking about. "They're sending people who have lots of problems, and they are bringing those problems with us." Here, he has narrowed down who he is talking about to people Mexico sends, who are not Mexico's best, certainly not every Mexican everywhere, and who are bringing problems. His grammar is pretty screwed up with the "us" thing, but it does not appear he is intending on including "us" as who he is talking about.

This next part is not describing who he is talking about, but tells us some of the "problems" of the people who Mexico sends who are bringing problems. "They're bringing drugs, They're bringing crime. They're rapists." Those problems that this isolated group of people who are not Mexico's best, not you, not all Mexicans, and who have problems, do sound pretty bad, so I am sure glad that Trump brought these things up. These things need to be brought up and be handled.

Last sentence: "And some I assume, are good people." It was pretty generous that Trump added this on, considering the kinds of problems that this isolated group of people are bringing. He assumes that some of these people who Mexico sends who are not Mexico's best, not you, not all Mexicans, and who are bringing such problems are actually good people.

Now we know who Trump was talking about:*
An isolated group of people who Mexico sends who are not Mexico's best, not you, and who bring lots of problems.

Now we know who he was not talking about:
He was not talking about Mexico's best, or all Mexicans, or you.
 
Not a fucking agenda, just a fact . He said it several times. Nor did he say all. that is a right wing escape clause. You can change the subject with that silly trick. We will now argue about whether he said all. As far as I know, he did not say all. This is arguing with a teenager.

How many times did he say it, Nerdberg?
 
Thank you lefties for posting where Trump called Mexicans rapists. I know that the notion that Trump called Mexicans rapists is important agenda for lefties, so the lack of anybody pointing out where he did this is a picture that is worth a thousand words.


you need to step back and take a deep breath. trump is a sleazy scum bag in general.
 
I am sure you can say that about any group. Some Japanese are rapists. Some polish, some English, some French. That is known. However when Trump singled out Mexicans as rapists in a public speech or 3, he must have had a reason. He did. He was poisoning the well for the Mexicans. He was making you connect Mexicans and rapists. it was not a harmless statement especially when said by a presidential
candidate. He had the option of not mentioning rape and Mexicans. That would have been fair . But that is not how Trump plays. He wanted the Americans to think of Mexicans and rape.
