Clinton releases bilingual video slamming Trump on deportations
Hillary Clinton on Thursday released a bilingual video slamming Donald Trump’s statements on immigration as she speeds up her pivot toward the general election.
{mosads}The video, which has English and Spanish text, shows clips of Trump saying he would deport immigrants in the country illegally.
“He’s a risk America can’t afford,” the text concludes.
The video was posted moments after Trump tweeted a photo of himself with a taco bowl in celebration of Cinco de Mayo, declaring his love for Hispanics.
“Happy Cinco de Mayo! The best taco bowls are made in Trump Tower Grill. I love Hispanics!” Trump tweeted.
Clinton mocked Trump’s tweet as she shared the video:
