Mexico denounces Trump immigration plan as racist
The Hill ^ | 8/19/15 | Mark Hensch

Posted on 08/19/2015 3:36:02 PM PDT by jimbo123

Mexico’s government is denouncing GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trump's immigration plan as racist, and says it will do harm to both countries.

“We continue to stand by our position that these comments reflect prejudice, racism or plain ignorance,” Mexico’s foreign ministry said in a statement, according to The Guardian.

“Anyone who understands the depth of the U.S.-Mexico relationship realizes that those proposals are not only prejudiced and absurd, but would be detrimental to the well-being of both societies."

Mexican Foreign Minister José Antonio Meade Kuribreña is a vocal critic of Trump’s policies concerning his nation.

Unlike the United States, Mexico is known as as a”flee” country.

I think we just need to acknowledge that ANYTHING that is Pro-USA, will be seen as racist.

There. Now get over it. He is running for the President of the United States. Not Mexico. Not Iran. If we elect another President how is anti-USA, as we have done during the last 2 elections, we are collectively too dumb to be a country anyway.

If it’s racist, Mexico, then why aren’t you sending any of your full-blooded white citizens north...you know, the ones of Spanish descent?

The bigoted and racist and corrupt Mexican drug cartel government is taking both American taxpayers monies and American jobs from the obamanation of America;s desolation as they thumb their nose at Americans.
Screw them and their flag. Go home illegals and take the democrats and rinos with you.

I understand the relationship and it has been one-sided.

Mexico has been foisting their lower-caste ethnic Indians on the United States and they have the gall to call Trump a racist?!

Our Southern border is as porous as a minnow seine.

The invasion has to stop, no matter how much Mexico's high and mighty feign outrage.

I have news for you, their borders are open, as long as you are transiting thru to the USA.

It isn’t just the Mexicans. Russians, Chinese, Central Americans, and so forth. The one-world idiots have done a good job of destroying our borders.

Indeed, the good minister has the fine old Andalusian name of “Meade.” How many Mexican peasants have names like that? Among the elites, if they don’t have a non-Hispanic name somewhere, which they wear like a badge of honor, many look like Jorge Ramos from Univision. There is almost no physical overlap between the richest 10% of people and the poorest 10%. They look almost as different as Chinese and Arabs do. In the middle, there is a cline between the two types. It’s very much a caste based society.

I’ve seen what upper class Mexicans look like in person, they are not the same race of people as the masses. If you showed Mexican students studying at private colleges in the US and illegal aliens working as landscapers in an experiment to people from a third country, no one would guess both sets of subjects came from the same country.

The point is that Mexican elites like Meade accusing us white America people like me and 90%+ of conservatives of being “racists” for wanting to keep poor Mexican peasants out of our country are hypocrites, largely white hypocrites like Meade(google his pic), who call poor dark skinned Mexicans bad names and boss them around like slaves when they are not on appearing on TV.

You are dead on. Through my work, I have traveled extensively mostly throughout N Mexico and have interacted with several well to do Mexican ranchers. Most have land owned by their families for 200 years plus. Many have fair complexions with blue eyes... Much German heritage when silver mining was going strong through the early 1900’s before the revolution. The people working for them are the “typical” people that we associate as the illegal Mexicans crossing the border. They are extremely loyal to the owners and are salt of the earth good people. The owners in turn take care of their employees providing housing and food when they retire.

My thoughts.. That is all.

Mexico had better start building low income housing. President Trump doesn’t give a hoot about what you think. He is a man of action, not some dumb politico who gives you everything you want. Why are we giving Mexico $318,000,000 in aid when their economy is better than ours?

Yes, just look in the local newspapers for the full page ad that says “Taking Bids for one damned big wall across the Mexican border. American labor only. American steel only. English only”.

“Submit bids to the GSA, Wash. DC or directly to me, President Donald Trump, The White House, Washington, D.C.

The post office knows the address.”

Would Gen. Allen West’s war cry be “Go, South, GIs, Go South”? (We already own the West except for sanctuary cities, but they can be nuked from space).

Is Mexico a race? Well, as Bill Clinton would say, it depends on how you say the word “race”.

I think that if you say Mexico to the other people of Latin America who are heading to the U.S., they would quickly “race” to get the hell out of it.

I think that would qualify Mexico as a “race”. Might call it the “Valley of Guerero to the Texas Border Race for Life”.

One of my cousins is married to an archaeologist who is a Paleo-Indian expert-that fact, along with having relatives and friends who work for American companies with branches in Mexico-Marriot, a couple of oil companies, auto manufacturers, etc is how I’ve managed to spend so much time there. The snobbery I’ve seen is based on money and the power that goes with it-governors of Mexican states will entertain rich narco mafia capos while they snub upstanding, legit business owners, bankers etc-the capos are much, much richer, and contribute money and muscle to their campaigns. It is a caste system, but the drivers are primarily money and power.

Cousin’s husband works mostly in the Southwestern US and Mexico, where he and his colleagues have documented the mixing and mingling of the various ethnic groups-which began a long time before Columbus handed the Spaniards a heads-up on the Brits and the rest of Europe-and a whole new place to rape and pillage, which is what everybody did for profit back then. There is more Caucasian/Eurasian DNA in Mexico, Central and S America than there is DNA showing kinship with the Bering straits people-there is even some Polynesian DNA in parts of costal S America. But the DNA that dates from after the conquest is mostly Caucasian, no matter what the skin color snobs may want to believe. Same race, different ethnic groups who intermingled-no different than what went on in places like what is now Russia or Mongolia in the far past.

The dirty little secret is that there has been another jump in European DNA since about 1945-from you can guess where-right along with surnames that go with bratwurst instead of chorizo-I’ll bet Meade is not primarily descended from Spaniards, and there might even be a Nazi in that woodpile-after all, it is really common in parts of Central and South America-some of them certainly think like Nazis, too...

My own antecedents were primarily Basques from the Spanish Pyrenees, but it is obvious that somewhere along the way there was some mingling with Spaniards from what was the old Arab Al Andalus, given the number of darker family members-the Apaches and other natives that many ancestors married are not that dark skinned.
