Even after organizations including NASCAR and ESPN have severed their connections with Donald Trump (whose racist comments about Mexican immigrants shocked the nation), one pal is standing behind him: Yankees co-owner Hank Steinbrenner.

I always hated Steinbrenner too. :)
There’s just something about Yankees.

[Vaquero]

now if only Hank and brother Hal would only make a ballclub like their father...The Boss....that would really be something...

they are too busy ruining the stadium grass with third world soccer crappola.

“Trump’s racist views...”

Notice how casually and affirmatively that comes rolling out.

[rktman]

Still not sure why people with a european heritage(spain) are a different race than, oh say, my Dutch ancestors. Due to some mixing with inca or aztec blood?

[Sacajaweau]

Every jerk who "dumped" Trump has to remember they've dumped themselves, too.

Trump must have been making them money or they wouldn't carry the brand.

Racist comments about Mexican immigrants?

A total lie! It was a rant about illegal aliens who are not immigrants.

:: (whose racist comments about Mexican immigrants shocked the nation) ::

Allow me to correct this...

(whose racist comments about Mexican immigrants shocked the nation national ^media-wonks^ who believe themselves to be the arbiter of all things political.
By-golly, if they can destroy POTUS Nixon, then they can choose every POTUS from here & out!)

I believe that to be closer to the truth.

The ruling class in Mexico are Spanish. The Hispanics coming up here are their native Indians. Two different people.

[rktman]

Native indians like those that came across the Aleutians when it was a land bridge a couple years back? :>}

[C. Edmund Wright]

Spinal sighting!!!! How refreshing.

[Lazamataz]

FINALLY!! Effing vertebrae.

“Native indians like those that came across the Aleutians when it was a land bridge a couple years back? :>}”

Native as when Cortez arrived in Mexico and the demonized Aztecs ruled with terror.

[waterhill]

I knew an Oaxacan who referred to himself as an Indian, the Mexicans hated him.

Even closer would be “whose truth comments about Mexican illegal immigration” :-)

Yeh you don’t see Ricardo Montalban or Julio Iglesias types in line at Kroger with the EBT cards. :-)
