In Jorge Ramos, Donald Trump may have picked the wrong media star to tussle with (LA Times)
LA Slimes ^ | August 26, 2015 | CHRISTINE MAI-DUC

In his latest showdown, Donald Trump ordered Univision anchor Jorge Ramos out of a news conference Tuesday, telling him to “go back to Univision.”

Ramos, who like Trump is known for his confrontational style, didn’t back down until he was escorted out of the room by security. Eventually, Ramos was invited back, where he sparred with Trump over the Republican candidate’s immigration proposals.

Trump has had some high-profile tiffs with media figures recently, battling publicly with Fox News Channel anchor Megyn Kelly, and on Tuesday with the network’s chairman, Roger Ailes.

But prodding Ramos, who has been called the Spanish-language Walter Cronkite, could prove dangerous for Trump, who thus far been something of a Teflon candidate. Here’s why:

Trump should have offered the Mexican a job mowing his lawn.

Christine Mai-Duc is a reporter and political junkie whose homepage is set to Rough & Tumble. She grew up in Sacramento, known as much for its cows as its politicos, and has been known to follow midnight budget negotiations on Twitter. She is a graduate of UC Berkeley, where she was editor of the Berkeley Political Review. Her previous experience includes various internships in and around the state capitol, including a stint in Governor Schwarzenegger’s office, but she most enjoyed writing and reporting for Capitol Weekly in Sacramento. Christine has lived in the Bay Area for six years, and Mt. Tam is one of her all-time favorite places. She likes to cook, but only because she loves to eat, and her other vices include shoes and oldies music. She is equally inspired by beautiful photography and a really, really good piece of chocolate.

I think its the other way around. He was Trump’s b#%ch from the minute he got thrown out until after he was let back in again and then owned by Trump for 5 glorious minutes. LOL!

Watch Tom Woods’s video, “Interview with a Zombie.” Then watch Jorge Ramos interviewing Ted Cruz. It’s almost the same video.

Saw Ramos on Hannity and Ramos constantly interrupted; he’s no Walter Cronkite. He’s more like pee wee herman.

Look, I want folks to know I’m broad minded.

The U. N. and L. A. Times logos ARE good for something.

Don’t let anyone tell you they aren’t.

= :^)

Thanks.

Not gonna give the slimes the views. No doubt wishful thinking on their part.

LAT is mostly read by mentally ill folks who even fail at being leftist. No joke. They use illegal aliens to deliver their leftist papers around LA. Thrown into the gutters of the mentally ill for their enjoyment.

Jorge is sure some kind of tough hombre. Don't let that puny petulant Latino metrosexual exterior fool you. The man is dynamite and seething with danger.

They don't call him the “Machete” of Univision for nothing.

Donald's probably scared now. Just think how scared you'd be if both the LA Slimes AND Jorge Ramos ganged up on you.

Wow, my mind is reeling with fear for the Donald. The man has some powerful enemies.

My husband still wishes I had my LA Times subscription, so he would have the pleasure of ending it again.

BTW. There was only one comment after the story. Probably because there isn’t a Spanish addition and no one reads it anymore.

I am certain that trump is very frightened about the awsome power of a wacky, radical, Mexico advocating, racist reporter.

He tried to do what the racists of Black Lives Matter did to Bernie Sanders (take over the stage) and it did not work.
