Yo no hablo español!The White House still has no Spanish website months into the administration
Associated Press ^ | 7/1/2017 | Staff

The Trump White House no habla español. Well, un poquito.

After a succession of administrations that embraced Spanish-language content, President Donald Trump's White House is all but ignoring Spanish speakers even though he has a robust online presence in English.

His administration has yet to offer a Spanish White House website. It has eliminated the position of director of Hispanic media outreach. And its Spanish-language Twitter account is heavy with English text and features sloppy translations.

White House press secretary Sean Spicer said in January that the administration had its 'IT folks working overtime' to roll out a new Spanish language site after WhiteHouse.gov/espanol went dark in the hours after Trump took office.

The dems want versions in a host of languages, I don't understand why, one of the requisites for citizenship is supposed to be:

The Naturalization Test

Most naturalization applicants are required to take a test on:

English

Civics (U.S. history and government)

It's the democrats and socialist that started all this pandering crap in order to keep us divided by taking a way the cornerstone of common language.

Now immigrants have no need to become proficient in English because we supply everything, even voting material in their home language, and that's Bolshevik!

The reason why the left made Hispanics keep Spanish and not learn English was simple: to solidify them in a monolithic block that feels itself different from those “Anglos” and “oppressed” by them.
The smart ones want to learn English and keep Spanish too. But you know, if the left stops meddling, their grandchildren will speak Spanish like George Bush.
I doubt that Trump has kept the m*slim outreach crap of his predecessor.

Good. They should cease and desist from creating a new one. They should kill the espanol twitter feed, too.
