Donald Trump Posts Pic Of Taco Bowl For Cinco De Mayo: 'I Love Hispanics!'
Katherine Krueger
MAY 05, 2016
Donald Trump, the Republican Party's presumptive presidential nominee, celebrated Cinco de Mayo Thursday with a Tex-Mex taco bowl in New York.
"I love Hispanics!" Trump posted to social media, with a photo of the billionaire hunched over a barely-touched taco bowl purportedly from the Trump Tower Grill.
A recent Gallup poll found nearly 80 percent of Hispanics have an unfavorable view of Trump.
SAMANTHA BEE'S RESPONSE:
"The best taco bowls are made by hardworking immigrants who don't like being called rapists by a rich prick. I love inauthentic Mexican food!"

He's eating off a stack of newspapers. Why!?! Just, why?
And as KamaAina's gif proves, the crap in the corner has been sitting there for some time.

(183,071 posts)I understand knickknacks and momentous in an office but when I see a messy or drab office I mentally note that and compare the performance I see out of that office. Not a neat freak but I've found attention to detail shows.

The mayor was out of the office at the time, being interviewed by a local television station. His staff handed out a prepared statement in response to the demonstration. It said the taco deliveries highlight the need for a continued "process of healing and reform that I initiated immediately upon taking office."
The tacos were taken to local soup kitchens and food pantries. One was left for Maturo.

A bit of graft, but at least he was not a "Phil Giordano".
