    The Mexicans I know don’t want anymore Hispanics coming in. They are split on DACA. Their kids are very anti Trump but they also grew up in an upper middle class situation because their Dad worked three jobs. They don’t even speak Spanish or associate with Hispanics but they are very anti Trump.
    The parents (who I love) are socially conservative Catholics and will speak Spanish if their kids are gone every once in awhile. The Dad told me his kids are white and American because he worked hard for them to be.

    It sounds odd but having known him for so long, that is what he did. He moved out of the Hispanic part of Chicago and now has a $700,000 home in the elite suburbs and his kids are all going to elite schools.

    My wife is more opinionated about it than me and has been a little more pointed, but at the end of the day she had to agree they were doing what they thought was best.

    He doesn’t have a MAGA hat but he did vote for GW and Trump and will again in 2020.

    I'm completely aware of that. Legal immigration has been on the rise. Take a look at this article/Granted its a 2013 article...http://www.fairus.org/issue/legal-immigration/rising-immigrant-admissions-united-states

    specifically this part...

    I understand. My claim was that MAGA hats don't stop at "illegal immigration". Now you are moving goal posts. My claim had nothing to do with the validity of the claim that legal immigration is a problem in this country.

    Just pointing out that it wasn't New Yorkers who put up that billboard.

    You specifically asked for "solid evidence" that Trump is a racist. He gives you exactly what you requested. He didn't exaggerate. You then respond by telling him to get help, and by calling him a lunatic.

    It appears that you can't handle the truth.

    I pointed that out in response to you bringing up Trump wanting to decrease legal immigrants from shithole countries. There may be some method to his madness.

    I understand. My claim was that "the raw number of black voters who support Trump is estimated to be between 1.7 million people and 2.5 million people." Now you are moving goals posts. My claim had nothing to do with the validity of the claim that "the raw number than don't support him around 20-22.5 million assuming that poll sampling extrapolates perfectly."

    It absolutely has a relevence? Or do you not believe in the concept of ratios?

    You really need to be more explicit with what your message is with saying "black people who support Trump exist". We all know this. Do you believe the 2 million supposed black Trump supporters are more of an accurate reflection of how the black community sees Trump than the 23 million?

    And again you leave out the fact that the maga hat wearer was the aggressor.

    it says it right there in the article.

    after the guy was confronted by the maga guy he drew his weapon.

    Not only was it not put up by New Yorkers, it was put in Times Square...pretty much guaranteeing no actual New Yorkers see it.

    never said the guy who pulled the gun was not guilty and a idiot but he did not pull the gun just because they were wearing maga hats.

    which you seem hellbent on implying.

    For the record I am glad he got arrested but it seems he could use a stand your ground defense since he was accosted.
