'Go Back to Univision!': Trump Has Jorge Ramos Thrown Out of Iowa Press Conference
Source: Mediaite
Donald Trumps press conference in Dubuque, Iowa went off the rails fast on Tuesday night when Univision anchor Jorge Ramos started questioning the candidate even though he had not been specifically called on by him.
Excuse me, sit down, you werent called. Sit down! Trump shouted at Ramos as he protested, I have the right to ask a question.
No you dont, go back to Univision, Trump replied, attempting to call on another reporter in the room. At that point, security physically removed Ramos from the room.
... Ramos later returned to the press conference room where he was able to confront Trump directly.

La campaña de Trump expulsa a Jorge Ramos de rueda de prensa
Miembros de seguridad de la campaña de Donald Trump expulsaron momentáneamente al presentador de Univision Jorge Ramos de una rueda de prensa en Dubuque, Iowa.
Trump se negó a responder una pregunta de Ramos al comienzo de la rueda de prensa, y el candidato ordenó a un guardaespaldas que llevara a Ramos fuera de la sala.
"Vuelve a Univision", le dijo Trump a Ramos mientras éste le preguntaba sobre su plan de deportar masivamente a millones de indocumentados.
"Tengo del derecho a hacer una pregunta", se defendió Ramos mientras el guardaespaldas lo echaba.

mucifer
(25,667 posts)That was not a very bright move. I need to do some voter registration this year. I know some Spanish.
Jorge Ramos is highly respected and tremendously influential in the Hispanic community, and immigration policy has been his major political focus issue for several election cycles now. Dissing Ramos is not the way to win the Latino vote.

Journeyman
(15,450 posts)There's not enough information here to draw a complete opinion (was Ramos passed over numerous times before he jumped up, did Trump feint that he was calling on him then point to someone else, etc), but from what's written here I can only conclude Ramos was being quite rude. And the article is silent on what transpired once Ramos returned to the meeting, and that's just plain weird. Makes me question the entire premise of the article.

Univision: "Go back to Univision ," Trump told Ramos as he asked about his plan to massively deport millions of undocumented immigrants .
Mediaite: No you dont, go back to Univision, Trump replied, attempting to call on another reporter in the room. At that point, security physically removed Ramos from the room.
Univision = +1

(14,180 posts)Him telling off the "uppity" Hispanic scores A LOT of points with them.
And as has been pointed out by other reporters who attend these events, "politeness" often falls by the wayside. It's whoever can shout out their questions the loudest who gets the attention. For all we know the reporter was following protocol and Trump was deliberately ignoring him. I wonder why?
"Univision" was a code word for "Mexico" just as "her wherever" was for Megyn Kelly.
Trump is an ass, and a boor, and how he keeps ranting that he doesn't get any respect is getting really damn old.
But his base is eating it up.
This latest dust-up won't hurt him in the least.

(1,727 posts)obnoxious questions? Remember when the Obama administration tried to freeze out Fox in early 2009, and the entire media pounced on them?
I don't condone the reporter's behavior, but this would never happen to anybody from Fox for fear of a backlash.

(211 posts)Imagine someone from Faux does that at an Obama/Earnest presser and gets kicked out. Does he/she then get let back in later and given the floor to ask his/her questions. My guess is NO.

Still a long way to go, but he is DESTROYING the establishment candidates in the primary right now, and because he is so out and out ludicrous he might be "gaffe" proof ...
He could hold the "base" he has to win the primary, then out of programmed hatred for the evil liberal, as they do have the general r population find some talking point rationalization to get behind him, and then if hill or bernie gets slandered enough ....

It goes on and on, the teaparty fuckwits with all their racist bullshit.

Trump is our dream republican candidate, coming out and saying all the horrible things the republican base believes. This kind of behavior is going to win him the nomination for sure. It's also going to give him no chance at all in the general election.
Donald Trump, destroyer of the Republican Party, American hero.
I am starting to believe he really is a secret democrat.

d_legendary1
(2,586 posts)So I really can't fault Trump at that point. I fault him when he starts going off on a rant:
Trump then reiterated that he has the support of the Latino community.
"Do you know how many Latinos work for me? Do you know how many Hispanics are working for me? They love me," Trump declared. "Do you know many Latinos work for me? Thousands. Do you know how many have worked for me over the years? Tens of thousands."

ancianita
(43,307 posts)Were they supposed to be two separate reports? Either way, the difference is major.
I haven't seen it talked about here yet, so I thought the third paragraph from Univision should be noted.
The third paragraph, translated:
"Go back to Univision ," Trump told Ramos as he asked about his plan to massively deport millions of undocumented immigrants .
Given the sizable Latino population of Iowa, Trump's abuse of Ramos shows him to be a bawling, classless asshole, and Ramos of Univision was legitimately serious enough for Latinos that he kept on insisting it be answered, I'd say.
Both were not wrong.
Trump was the total dictador. What he did to Ramos is what he will do to all of us if, god forbid, he were to win.
Newsjock
(11,733 posts)The first is from Mediaite; the second is from Univision, Jorge Ramos' network. Sorry for the confusion.
ancianita
(43,307 posts)In the Mediaite video he said -- in English, three times -- "you said you are going to deport 11 million Latinos" to Trump! He said that. Did anyone catch it?
And here, like everywhere else, no one's even listened. Of course Trump threw him out -- Ramos knew that if he "waited his turn," Trump would never, never call on him!
The Ramos/Univision strategy was to insist up front on the issue of Latino deportations, because Univision knows how Trump will treat immigrants and their reporters.
That is the story, not the bully tactics of IL Douche -- the fact that Latinos in a high Latino worker farm state won't be given a voice in Trump's presidency.
Isn't ANYONE around here going to give Ramos credit for showing up Trump to be a coward?
murielm99
(32,989 posts)The story is how Trump will treat Latinos if he becomes President. Hitler told everyone what he would do, and then he did it.
I don't really like to make the Nazi Germany comparisons, but lately, I just can't help it.
