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.

Bueno!!
This is America, not mexico. If you don’t want to learn English and assimilate, go home.
Is that required by law?-)
Prove it. We have had many attempts to pass legislation that declares English as the official language , yet here we are.
There is no need for a Spanish website. Google will translate the whole site for free into any language.
sure they can but they don't have to, we give after all we do offer the citizenship oath in Spanish. We also offer Lawyers in the native tongue of the criminal.
Be funny if they put up a Russian-language one first.
We should legalize pot, everyone will get along.
That's a stupid thing to do.
Does the Mexican President have an English version of Mexico’s website?
Maybe we could install sign language for deaf Spanish speakers. Oh wait maybe we cold provide babble phones.
It is a political thing to do and those things are typically stupid.
Numbers.
You sure?

Not if we only count the legals.
Along all of the other languages spoke in the USA
Well there ya go.
However, AP is trying to make the story about Trump’s racism. In other words, it is racist to not have everything done in Spanish for the poor immigrants who are only coming here to do the jobs *real* Americans won’t do.
To a virtue-signaling Leftist elite, the poor, pitiful migrants (who cannot be illegal in a land that was stolen from them) aren’t intelligent enough to learn the language of the country who stole their land, and so things have to be given to them by the gubmint, otherwise everyone is a racist, meaning white Christian Anglo-Saxon men who steal people of color (slave masters) or their land. And if that elitist happens to be a white Anglo man, well, he feels really, REALLY guilty about it, and desperately wants to shed his white privilege, which he does by promoting Left-wing politics and hate on his own self.
Now, if the elitist is NOT a white man, but say, a Hispanic male, a person of African Negroid descent, a female, a homosexual, lesbian, transgender, Muslim, or a “person of color ( but note, not a colored person!) then they can not only hate white Anglo men, but actually incite violence on them, just because they were born white and are not ashamed of it. NOTHING is out-of-bounds.
Did I miss anything?
But there’s a Russian version?
But we do count them. If you haven't noticed Satan is just building another Tower of Babel.
