Sunday on ABC’s “This Week With George Stephanopoulos,” former Texas Governor and Republican presidential candidate Rick Perry said Donald Trump’s remarks about Mexican immigrants being rapist and criminals were “offensive.”
Addressing Trumps criticism of his handling of border security Perry said “I don’t think he understands the challenge, obviously.”
Perry continued, “The fact is, I have said clearly that Donald Trump does not represent the Republican Party. I was offended by his remarks. Hispanics in America and Texas, from the Alamo to Afghanistan have been extraordinary people, citizens of our country and of our state. They have served nobly and to paint with that broad of a brush, like Donald Trump did, he’s going to have to defend those remarks. I never will. And I will stand up and say those were offensive, which they were.”

Wow the media is REALLY FEARFUL of Trump. That's why they are all attacking for him.
What's that old World War II saying, "The Flak is the heaviest when you are over the target." Trump is flying onto the Flak.
Perry who?
Another endorsement for Trump.
The guy who is about to be eliminated early in the presidential race just like he was four years ago.
Guess Rick Perry doesn’t care about these Americans.

You’re going down Rick.
Yes, they DO NOT represent the GOP, and that is why I don’t like the GOP anymore.
Perry sounds like the Nebraska Senator in “The Godfather II” when he’s trying to save his own ass at a Senate hearing against Michael Corleone.
Trump doesn’t represent the GOPe? Yo Rick, that is the real problem.
SHUT UP MO Greene
Rick “Deer In The Headlights” Perry says Trump does not understand
the challenge.
Has anyone else noticed that all these GOP hacks, who trash Trump
about his comments NEVER comment about what they would do about
our borders?
They all do a hit and run, NEVER addressing the underlying issue.
They avoid talking about it, other than trashing Trumps comments.
He speaks the truth. They want illegals here even it they don’t ‘work hard’.
He is more MO Greene type
This just goes to show how much money there is in illegal immigration.
You’re right Rickie. Donald doesn’t represent the Republican party as it is constituted today. He may be the harbinger of an entirely new CONSERVATIVE Party.
Trump them all, Donald!
I’ve never liked trump but if he wants to help call out the amnesty pimps like Perry and Pataki then good.
And good for cruz for supporting trumps POV (notice how the media doesn’t cover that of course)
Nothing offensive in Trump’s remarks. Definitely something stupid in Perry’s.
I’m offended by politicians like Perry that don’t give a damn about citizen taxpayers anymore.
Gov. Gardasil Perry wants more girls to give
his forced vaccine to, as they leave their rape trees.
THANK GOD!!!
