It's easy to do with him, given his speech patterns.
Now, I will grant that he seemed to amend his statement, but it wasn't just outright equating everyone crossing the border as human filth (although everyone that does IS committing a felony).
I'm not going to search and link, so I'll paraphrase.
He did say that we were not getting Mexico's best coming across, we were getting murderers and rapists, and probably along with some very nice people.

I am aware of Trump's original words. My point is not that Trump said all Mexicans=Rapists. That is why I wrote this:

Am I a bigot if I say Mexicans are "rapists"?  Not all, but a lot of them. Immigrants for example. Wouldn't a bigot say that is just a fact?  If Trump is calling Mexicans "rapists" on right wing sites, is that the same as liberals calling Trump a "bigot" on liberal sites? An example of a double standard?

I will be happy to pare down the numbers--but to what exactly?
And what would be the point of calling any immigrants rapists except to excite loathing and fear of them? Adding as an
after thought that some are nice people doesn't negate the damage or intent, does it?

When Bengals fans to come to Heinz Field for a Steelers game, Ohio is not sending its best people. There are murderers and rapists. Of course, some of them are nice people.

I am joking, of course. A LOT of Bengals fans are not rapists. But Trump was serious. And you would be ticked off if you thought I was serious.
