Mr. " I hate immigrants, I hate legal immigrants, I hate illegal immigrants--Latinos are criminals, rapists, murderers, Criminal gang members"-- trump has made money off illegal Latin American immigrants for decades on his business properties-- they have built them, they served on them, and they made much of his business possible. trump has benefited from illegal Latino immigrants for decades and now he wants to be seen as the person who is most against them, and wants to stop them from coming in. trump didn't invent lying hypocrisy, but he certainly is the poster boy for it.
