Donald Trump, derider of Mexican illegal immigrants, insulter of POWs and GOP front-runner, kicked journalist Jorge Ramos out of a press conference Tuesday evening.
The billionaire later allowed Ramos back into the press conference, where the two engaged in several lengthy exchanges that dominated the remainder of the event. But none of those exchanges provided the moment that will be repeated in endless loops on cable TV, shared on social media and discussed in Hispanic TV-watching households across the country.
The lasting image will be that of Ramos -- who serves as Univision's lead anchor and is effectively one of the (if not the) most powerful newsmen on Spanish-language TV -- being hustled out of the room after trying to ask Trump a question. Ramos, whose nightly newscast has been known to post ratings that top those of all three major English-language network news programs, has a history of holding presidential candidates very close to fire on issues he believes to be of deep concern to Latinos, such as immigration.

To listen to him is to learn. He has his own style, entertain and educate.
>> "“Megyn claims he must have realized what a big mistake that was, which is why he was allowed back in”.She’s full of it. He kicked him out to prove a point. No one is going to take over his press conference, especially not someone with an agenda like the race-baiting Ramos. Can you imagine Jeb Bush having the balls to show a trouble-maker the door.
He let him back in because he’s a nice man and put up with any type of nonsense from reporters."
It seems there are two people on the planet who missed the significance of what Trump managed to accomplish Tuesday, Megyn Motormouth and nickcarraway. This was an impressive demonstration of commandeering the attention of everyone, at will.
Trump managed to hijack the entire news cycle on a day that the Stock Market should have been the major story. He suffocated out all the other 16 candidates, not to mention the opposing party with its own pending Hillary-Biden story. And he did it for free!
For the negligible cost of a couple of Tweets containing unimportant commentary of Megyn Motormouth's return. The major media predictably walked in to the trap and elevated that to huge news. Consequently all the news media was watching that pre-speech Q&A when he jettisoned the Hispanic troublemaker in front of the cameras and mics.
This immediately led to the amazing spectacle of the news networks covering his subsequent Iowa stump speech like a State Of The Union address! Holy crap. Only FOXey News cut away for their normal bib-dribbling evening lineup of (R)epublicrat RNC shills.
One astonishing side effect was that when he got Ramos tossed with a mere glance and a single word, he literally showed that the O'Malley and Sanders capitulation to BLM was weak and cowardly, and Trump warned them all that 'Homey don't play dat'.
Megyn was merely a pawn on his chessboard, and he played it beautifully. He wasn't trying to get a rise out her, he was going for the predictable drone of politically correct nitwits ( that includes you nickcarraway ).
I am not one who is easily impressed, but man, that was truly impressive.
Thanks for sharing Jeb
That one stood right beside me at the Trump rally I attended...not somebody you would want to cross.
The reason he was hustled out was because he said, “You can’t deport 11 million illegals.” If he had said, “You can’t deport 30 million+ illegals.”, he would have been allowed to stay.
Even CNN said Georgio was out-of-line.
Braco!
May this ibe good precedent for kicking all the Latino and other illegal alien invaders out of the USofA.
I heard this activists wife works for Hillary. I think any real journalist would discuss this, and reports about this should have it in the first line.
Jorge Ramos, the amnesty activist moonlighting as a Univision and Fusion journalist, revealed in June that his daughter is an employee of the Hillary Clinton campaign.

Bib-dribblers for the GOPe. Gotta love it! 8^)
