Exclusive–Donald Trump: Univision Targeting Me on Behalf of Mexican Gov’t, Trying to ‘Silence’ Me
Breitbart ^ | 25 Jun 2015 | Matthew Boyle

Posted on 06/25/2015 11:33:27 AM PDT by mandaladon

Republican presidential candidate and real estate magnate Donald Trump tells Breitbart News exclusively that he has no plans whatsoever to back down in the face of Univision—on behalf of the Mexican government—targeting him after he’s exposed trade deals and immigration problems that benefit Mexico and harm the United States.

“The Mexican government is putting tremendous pressure on Univision and there are plenty of others—lobbyists and special interests—putting tremendous pressure on Univision to break their fully signed and fully effective contract with the Miss Universe Organization because I’ve exposed the tremendously bad trade deals that the United States is so incompetently making with Mexico and also because of the fact that I’ve exposed some of the terrible things that happen on the southern border,” Trump said in his first interview, which came with Breitbart News on Thursday, in response to the news that under pressure from Mexican officials, Univision has announced it will end its plans to carry the Miss Universe pageants. Trump is a co-owner of the pageant organization.

“One of the reasons that I’m resonating with the people of the United States is that I’m willing to expose this and this is why our country is losing so much money on our trade deals with Mexico and other countries,” Trump said. “So this is what is happening: I have a fully signed contract, and they don’t want me to talk badly about the trade deals because doing that they’re not going to be able to continue to rip off the United States.”

On Thursday morning, the Wrap reported that Univision is ceasing all ties with Trump’s Miss Universe organization.

Please, let’s not let sanity over-ride other concerns here.

Dylann Roof? Really? And our folks are taking Trump to task for reacting?

Good grief!

That’s going to change much in the R primary election season. It’s not static display and it’ll go down.

Trump would have to accomplish quite a bit to top Perry’s one man Gardasil edict for girls.

Not if he keeps looking like a fool. The reason he has such a large unfavorable is that people know him.

This candidate speaks out, responds and tells the truth after 40 years of total silence from the politicians? Trump must be a clown!

In fact just because Mexico and it’s people have robbed, conned, injured, murdered, hoodwink, defrauded and looted the U.S. tax payers for decades, there is no reason for Trump to get huffy with them.

It appears so. ...cross posting this. The Univision president Alberto Ciurana put this on his "official Instagram account."

Perry's Gardasil edict was undertaken while in power. Liberal Donald Trump will never be in position of power and he lacks the political knowledge to get there.

This is a sampling of his political prowess that will be on display in the debates. lol!

And some of our folks think Trump was in the wrong here.

Wow...

Thanks.

Some folks need to wash out their keyboard with soap.

So Trump is worse than Perry because he did things out of power vs as the titular head of a state?

You sure about that?

Are you for the trade that’s taking place today?
Are you for the illegals inside our nation?
Are you against a wall on our southern border?

While I don’t like Trump and I don’t like the way he operates, I’ll be damned if I’ll trash him right now.

He’s pushing good police at the moment. Why would I possible trash him?

I tell you what’s going to be funny is when Trumps numbers go down below what puts him in the first tier and all the Trump lovers here will be crying about a GOPe conspiracy.

keep talking, donnie. every time you open your mouth, you lose half of your support.

Impossible!

We've already been told right here a he is nearly at -1.

Trump's a flash in the pan. We need to get back to those who've been entrenched in government their entire careers. We need another politician to straight this out!

Go team!

I don’t “love’ Trump or any other candidate. Don’t get stuck on one guy 100% against or for since you’ll eventually be disappointed.

I’m not asking you to trash anyone. Regardless what he may be saying or may have said to try to pull in conservative support, Trump’s liberal record speaks for itself. Given his lack of political knowledge and background, he will be the biggest fool on the debating stage, and that’s a gift for the mumbling idiot, Rick Perry.
