Barcelona (AFP) - Spain voiced alarm Monday as the US White House's Spanish-language website vanished after Donald Trump came to power, saying removing it was "not a good idea" in a country with millions of Hispanics.
But White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer later eased concerns, saying the website was merely being updated.
"We are continuing to build out the website both in the issue areas and in that area," he told reporters in response to a question over when the Spanish version of the site would be running again.
"We have got the IT folks working overtime right now to continue to get all of that up to speed and trust me, it's going to take a little more time but we are working piece by piece to get that done."

At least they got rid of the crap that Barry had added to the page about each former president where Barry told you how wonderful he was.

..."not a good idea" in a country with millions of Hispanics. The ones who are serious about becoming Americans speak English, or are working on it.

“removing it was “not a good idea””
Removing it is the ONLY option considering how it is probably filled with propaganda and would take years to edit.

Lol, sometimes I just had to laugh at his narcissism. Anytime anything or anybody did some good thing, he would post a picture of himself.
