You accuse Trump of using rhetoric to rile up his supporters, but what do you think this does? You add fuel to the fire trying to incite fear in those on your side.ĪGAIN, this is a phantom. The answer to Trump’s hyperbole is not more hyperbole. Trump’s constant assault on people of color and his use of the word “invasion” to describe the flow of immigrants is intentional and constant. My mistake was unintentional and I’m sorry. I misspoke about Trump calling for an extermination of Latinos. Only after receiving a well-deserved backlash, Wallace offered up this lame apology with a shot at Trump.
You now have a president, as you said, talking about exterminating Latinos.” “President Obama used the power of the presidency to try to pass comprehensive immigration reform, with the Latino community, Latino leaders, at the table. So politically powerful inside the last Republican administration,” Wallace then responded. “What do you do when, certainly, the last Republican president fought for, sought and - it’s not ideal - but had 44 percent of Latino voters. “So, to me, there’s very little distinction between his inciting this violence and the fact it’s now happening.” “What do you do with an infestation? With an infestation, the natural conclusion is to attempt an extermination,” Reyes said. He then listed examples of Trump’s rhetoric towards Latinos and illegal immigrants like describing the caravan that was heading to the U.S.
On Monday, Wallace led a conversation where USA Today opinion columnist Raul Reyes slammed Trump’s remarks condemning white supremacy since he had “basically declared open season on Latinos” during his entire presidency.
