Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus warned presidential candidate Donald Trump that his rhetoric on illegal immigration was jeopardizing the party’s efforts to woo Hispanic voters.
According to multiple news outlets Wednesday night, the RNC chief urged the real-estate tycoon, who has shot to the front rank in polling among the party’s 2016 contenders, to tone down his remarks on immigration during the private phone conversation Wednesday afternoon.
But a Republican source familiar with the call told CNN that Mr. Priebus closed the conversation with “look, I’ve gotta tell you, I spent four years trying to make inroads with the Hispanic community … how we address illegal immigration is very important” to those efforts.
“They had a respectful discussion across a wide range of issues including illegal immigration,” Sean Spicer, an RNC spokesman, told CNN.

The Donald should tell Rinse to kiss his left butt cheek.
Trump is jeopardizing the Chamber of Commerce’s goal of cheap labor.
I’m no fan of Trump, but if an amnesty proponent like Jeb Bush is nominated, I hope he runs as an indie. Bush is nearly indistinguishable from the Ubershrew, so both parties must be defeated.
no RNC money for me ?
When it comes to money, Trump can exhibit some righteous arrogance .....
not saying it's good, or right .... but ...
c'mon now .....
The GOP are lying, backstabbing enablers of treason,
who are HATED by the American people.
RELEASE THE DONALD.
In short, Reince Pribus, “American Hispanics embrace lawbreaking invaders.”
It is the GOPe leadership that should tone down and stop their talk of amnesty. They should get on board with Trump’s message. Besides, once you deport the 30-60 million illegal aliens now in the US, how many Hispanics will be left? And, anyway, won’t they welcome a better job market?
Oh what a tangled web...
You don’t think he did?
Something has gone terribly wrong when you don’t want to offend a bunch of “Americans” who may vote for you by calling out criminals.
Is it officially called the “loathsome degenerate” vote?
What does “THE HISPANIC COMMUNITY” have to do with “ILLEGAL ALIENS”?
They are not the same thing you slimy racist little GOPe worm!
Donald needs to emphasize ‘illegal immigration’ and not ‘Mexicans.’ If he does that, he should be fine.
Most Repubs want verifiable border security and once that is established, we’ll talk about the rest. Again, nothing controversial.
If the GOP and the Government enforced our immigration laws and protected our jobs from illegals, none of this would be an issue.
Since the GOP (and the Dims) has refused to do this simple duty, a person like Donald Trump can make in-roads into their Primaries. It’s how the system works Reince!! Deal with it.
Yes indeed!
To be SPECIFIC...
1.) There is no hope of Conservatives EVER appealing to legal immigrants AND it's an exercise in futility to TRY
2.) Illegal and undocumented’s DON'T vote.
What's the moron RNC idiot thinking? I'll tell you what he's thinking:
“Donald is discussing the issues WE in the GOP don't want to face, MUCH LESS discuss”
The first thing Trump said was that he has 9 billion dollars. The GOP leadership can’t overcome that.
“look, I’ve gotta tell you, I spent four years trying to make inroads with the Hispanic community … how we address illegal immigration is very important”
So they are mainly concerned with winning the vote of American Brown Supremacists?
I am old enough to remember when both parties at least paid lip service to “Law andOrder” now both sides preach inviting law breakers in to our home.
Hey, Renice!,he’s not telling us something we don’t already know. Truth is the RNC cares more about the illegal alien than they do Conservative American Citizens. WTP understand that, and you “SIR” should go back to the drafting board and work on new plans....the GOPe has shot its feet so many times you ‘folks’ have become nothing more than a sieve....you are losing your base faster than Dracula drinks the blood from his victims. “Weep” your rewards
“Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus warned presidential candidate Donald Trump that his rhetoric on illegal immigration was jeopardizing the party’s efforts to woo Hispanic voters.”
Reince, tell that to family of Kate Steinle and the rest of America you tone def establishment elite loser.
