Vicente Fox slams 'imperialistic gringo' Trump's debate performance
The Hill ^ | Sweptember 27, 2016 | Rebecca Savransky

Former Mexican President Vicente Fox on Tuesday slammed Donald Trump's performance in the first presidential debate and warned that the GOP nominee's behavior should alarm world leaders.

"We think he’s a danger. He’s a threat to the world," Fox, who watched the debate on Mexican television, told

The Washington Post.


"When he speaks about geo-economic situation and the geo-political situation and terrorism, he’s absolutely ignorant, and he’s only provoking us democratic leaders from around the world to reject everything he’s proposing. He is an imperialistic gringo."
In contrast, Fox said Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton looked "very presidential."

"My impression was the beauty and the beast," he said.

"Hillary Clinton was gracious ... and he was very clumsy and poor in his presentation....She really looked like a statesman, and he looked very poor."

Fox pointed specifically to an exchange between Clinton and Trump about the GOP nominee's past treatment of women, specifically Alicia Machado — a former Miss Universe beauty pageant winner from Venezuela — whom Trump criticized for gaining weight.

"He was very aggressive and offensive to her, like he's been with everybody," Fox said.

"I think it was great of Hillary to present that one case, but [Machado] represents many other cases of how he has spoken about women, how he has spoken about we Mexicans."

Fox said he "absolutely" thinks Trump came across as bigoted and bullying during the debate.

Fox has slammed the Republican nominee, who has called for a wall along the southern border of the U.S., in the past. In advance of the GOP nominee's visit to Mexico, the two exchanged shots on Twitter, with Fox calling on Trump to "show some respect."

Trump is not a threat to the world.
He’s a threat to the “New World Order” and the Soros/Bush/Obama/Clinton globalists.

There’s a pretty good chance Vicente Fox is going to have some serious ass pain in November

How does limiting illegal immigration make the U.S. imperialist?

Doesn’t anyone speak English anymore?

And by the way, isn’t “Gringo” kind of a racist term? Why would we even consider what a racist like FIx has to say about anything?

All he said about Mexico was it was a manufacturing super power that was eating our lunch. Was he wrong, Mr. Fox?

Mexico’s Fox must not have liked Trump pointing out that we get taxed 16% selling into Mexico but Mexico sells to us with 0% tax.

"We think he’s a danger. He’s a threat to the world,"

No doubt, because he indeed is a threat to the world. No longer would they be allowed to rape us without consequences. They should all be very very afraid of a Trump Presidency, but that is of no concern. They will just have to learn to live with it.

Of course he is a threat to globalists. Which is why he has their panties in a wad.
