'Wall' of taco trucks being erected at Trump hotel

A "wall" of taco trucks will be erected outside the Trump International Las Vegas hotel before the final presidential debate there on Wednesday night.

The Culinary Union, an adversary of GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump, is going to “build” a wall of taco trucks at the hotel, according to BuzzFeed News.

Trump’s hotel is located just a few miles from the site of the debate at University of Nevada, Las Vegas. “We’re reminding Mr. Trump that immigrant workers here and across the country will be watching the debate and voting in November,” Yvanna Cancela, political director for the union, said.

The union has held almost 10 rallies outside Trump’s hotel since December.

In September, a top Trump supporter warned that there would be taco trucks "on every corner" if the country didn't do something about illegal immigration.

“My culture is a very dominant culture, and it’s imposing and it’s causing problems. If you don’t do something about it, you’re going to have taco trucks on every corner," said Marco Gutierrez, founder of the group Latinos for Trump.

Trump’s campaign told BuzzFeed News it welcomed the taco trucks.

“I never, EVER turn down a chance to eat some good tacos so I say ‘thanks’ for setting up shop right outside!” said senior adviser and Hispanic outreach director A.J. Delgado.

A great opportunity for Trump to buy a few hours worth of free tacos for his fellow NYers.

If you watch the Project Veritas video release from today it is hard to view these “protests” as spontaneous......

No, he should call the cops on them, for obstructing free passage.

And WHO, in their right mind, would want to eat crap made by these disgusting POF ( filth )?

Arrest and deport every one of these Nazi taco benders. This is the gang O’Keefe told us about today.

We’re reminding Mr. Trump that immigrant workers here and across the country will be watching the debate and voting in November,”

And there lies the problem. They need to be US citizens first before they can vote. And yet they will still vote because in most states you don't need to show an ID.

Legal immigrants are not the issue.

They have shown they will respect our laws enough to at least become citizens lawfully.

Bird dog tacos in action. Make mine chicken with salsa. If Hillary drops by, she has some hot sauce in her pocket.
