Surging in Republican presidential polls following his attacks on illegal immigration, Donald Trump is now advocating a US boycott of Mexico.
“I’m not going to Mexico. And I don’t think anybody from this country [should],” Trump said on the Rita Cosby WABC radio show.
“I think we should boycott Mexico, frankly.”
I swear if Trump had his way he would start a freaking war with Mexico.
This of course follows on the heels of Trump's prisoner of war insult directed at John McCain for which he is still refusing to apologize:
Asked by ABC News whether he owes McCain an apology, Trump said: "No, not at all."
"People that fought hard and weren't captured and went through a lot, they get no credit. Nobody even talks about them. They're like forgotten. And I think that's a shame, if you want to know the truth," Trump said Sunday.
"People that were not captured that went in and fought, nobody talks about them. Those are heroes also," he said.
So let's see. So far, just these last few weeks, Trump has managed to piss off the Hispanics voters, military members, and the supporters of other GOP nominees.
By the time he gets to the debates he may have virtually nobody left in his corner except his family.
Though one has to wonder if they don't find him more than a little creepy as well.
I swear that watching this Trump campaign careening off of the tracks is almost as much fun as watching Sarah Palin slowly imploding in on herself.
All in all it's been a great summer.
Donald Trump continues courting the Hispanic vote by calling for a boycott of Mexico. Oh yeah, that will help.
