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.

amen.
the media should fear him.
He is ready to sue Univision over Miss America and this defamation.
We need a politician who walks the walk not just talks.
Perhaps this will push the other weaklings to grow a spine or be pushed aside.
We do not need another Obama.
Who cares if 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.
Right John?
We need a politician with that smooth polite D.C. garden party academia demeanor who’ll tell Mexico we really don’t mind they’ve been looting tax payers for hundreds of billions for decades. It’s not the politicians money anyway. It’s a win win for the politicians.
Lets play it safe and put another lawyer/career politician in there. Lots of people own stock in them ya know!
Lets do the right thing America!
half of any nonzero number is still a nonzero number. just fyi.
Don’t you realize at this point of the game him pointing out these issues is helpful, not hurtful, to our cause?
Sure he’s everything you say. He’s the only one addressing these issues as openly and candidly as they deserve to be addressed.
So we seek to shut him up, get folks to dismiss his thoughts on these matters?
It is political suicide to trash the only guy on your team, and right now he is the only guy on your team.
Period!
Cruz isn’t nearly as open on these matters.
Walker isn’t nearly as open on these matters.
So we trash him because he has the audacity to tell it like it is?
No me fella...
Bump to your post FRiend! I agree wholeheartedly.
Hope you are well ;)
Thanks Las Vegas Ron.
DoughtyOne Ron...
Trump’s shining a floodlight on things that the cockroaches would rather keep in the dark.
So I say keep talking Donald. Piss them off and let them show themselves for what they really are.
Brilliant
I agree.
What we see.
Posters complain. Why doesn’t the Republican Party defend themselves from scurrilous Democrat Party attack? Why can’t we respond to their silly criticism? We got rolled again! The GOP are such losers!
Posters complain. When Trump actively defends his person and presidential campaign from Democrat and liberal attack. What? Shut up Trump you can’t do that! You’ll make us look bad in the liberal media!
Oh man ...LoL.
He can point out all the issues he wants. But I can, in turn, point out that he will replace Perry as the biggest joker in the stage because it will be true.
So we seek to shut him up, get folks to dismiss his thoughts on these matters?
I'm fairly certain I've never said I want to shut him up.
It is political suicide to trash the only guy on your team, and right now he is the only guy on your team.
Trump is a liberal. He may be on your team, but he is not on mine.
Cruz isn’t nearly as open on these matters.
Walker isn’t nearly as open on these matters.
These matters? I live so close to the US/Mexican border I can smell it. Given that, and what I do for a living, there are probably few here have been as negatively affected by ILLEGAL aliens as I have. I understand quite well how bad the problem is. But I know, because I know many Mexicans, that what Trump said publicly can only hurt his lame campaign and the party. You may not agree with that and that is fine. But I know better. So does Cruz and so does Walker.
I agree with that pat completely. The problem is that what happens when all his ‘good words’ get him elected after people blind themselves to his liberal history...and we end up with the Presidency occupied by yet ANOTHER liberal...but this one thinking a nation and a business are the same animal and the ‘Art of the deal’ ensues?
I understand their point of view, but I ultimately have to agree with you on this.
The only guy on our side is now a scurrilous ding bat?
Whew!
Wouldn’t it be more productive to trash the guy for being who he has been, and at least give him verbal support for his announced policies?
I see none of that.
All I see is the Democrat tactical attack mode on side issues. Can’t folks grasp that?
I don’t believe you.
Sorry, but I know plenty of people with Mexican ancestry and they think your mindset that you just voiced is pure poppycock.
They think the U. S. is being taken for a ride, and they’re as outraged over it as I am. Evidently you aren’t. Shame on you.
The only joke here are folks who are trashing the only guy to get it on these issues.
Is he on my team. One trade and immigration he certainly is. I think you’re comments are quite revealing.
Later.
Oh, so it’s only Liberals who support a wall on the border, ending illegal immigration, and sending the illegals home.
It’s only Liberals who support trade policies to be written and enforced that are actually good for the United States.
And of course, it’s only Conservatives who want over 100 million foreign nationals from Mexico, Central, and South America here in under 15 years.
Wow, no wonder you’re trashing Trump.
Well... I’ll say this.. he may be liberal on some issues, but I do believe he’s an American capitalist through and through; not a commie posing and calling himself a “liberal” to fool dumbasses.
And I think he’s saying what people want to hear because HE believes it as well... or WANTS to believe it.
Like DoughtyOne says... I’m not going to trash the guy. At least he’s stepping up to the plate and slugging back, you know?
My BIL is 100% Mexican American and he hates the illegals. He’s all for a fence.
Sure he is. Now. Because he needs us. Was he when he donated to libs regularly and backed trannies and a litany of other leftist crap? Not so much.
His American capitalism sure has a lot of China connections as well.
