Spanish singer criticises anti-immigrant comments by US presidential hopeful, and apologises to clowns for comparison

The Spanish singer Julio Iglesias has said he will no longer perform in casinos belonging to Donald Trump because of anti-immigrant comments by the US presidential hopeful.

“I have sung many times in his casinos, but I won’t do it again. He seems to be an asshole,” Iglesias told the Barcelona-based daily newspaper La Vanguardia. “He thinks he can fix the world forgetting what immigrants have done for his country. He is a clown! And my apologies to clowns.”

In June, Trump said in a speech that some Mexican immigrants brought drugs and crime to the United States, and some were rapists. He has called for the mass deportation of illegal immigrants.

I'll bet he sat up all night figuring out the clever lyrics for his blockbuster Christmas hit Feliz Navidad. It is still my least favorite Christmas song, by far.

Julio is a doofus. Who cares what he thinks? Run find yourself another old lady, Julio.

I am a little uncomfortable with a president who owns a casino.

Julio, your biggest days were about 30 years ago. Even you son, is seen as part of the Old Guard. Just saying, you may regret taking such a public stance. Now, folks who haven’t even thought of you since Madonna was ‘Just Like A Virgin”, will see you as being aligned with the illegals and against what is civil order in the United States. You’ll be sorry!
And don’t think The Donald will forget this slight should you ever call his number for a favor or a gig.

anti - immigrant!!! HUH.

Saying illegals should go back and build a wall is not anti immigrant, especially as Trump stated numerous times that he wants legal immigration

[Slyfox]

Doesn't he mean anti-ILLEGAL immigrant?

Somehow they miss that qualifier which makes a yuge difference.

[DoughtyOne]

Aww that’s just spin.

Trump couldn’t find an insurance company to cover Julio while standing.

/s

[MamaB]

Great.

[dfwgator]

Ok, so what’s the downside?

[albie]

Washed up old left wing turd. Who needs him!

[Sequoyah101]

I thought he was dead.

Never did care for his voice.

“He thinks he can fix the world forgetting what immigrants have done for his country." In June, Trump said in a speech that some Mexican immigrants brought drugs and crime to the United States, and some were rapists. He has called for the mass deportation of illegal immigrants.

Actually, sounds like Trump does remember what illegal immigrants have done for to his country.

Jose Feliciano. The King of Christmas earworms, not to be outdone by slutty versions of Eartha Kitts’ Santa Baby.

[sockmonkey]

Jose Feliciano wrote Feliz Navidad.

[Vigilanteman]

I’ll grant you that’s a stinker of a song too. But Kitts’ voice is at least a little more pleasant to listen to.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Well than good riddance..if Julio loves these illegal alien rapist murderers SO much he can invite them to stay at his mega mansion

[Vigilanteman]

I stand corrected. But he still has the same overrated talent and ego as JI.

[jughandle]

Didn’t Trump slam ILLEGAL immigration, and not legal I’mmigration?

I’m sorry Julio, who’s the clown?

[Hostage]

One hit wonder.

[DoodleDawg]

I thought Trump had gotten out of the casino business.
