Latino Victory Fund Statement on Donald Trump’s Meeting with Latino and African-American Activists

Washington, DC – Today, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump met with Latino and African-American activists in New York City. This meeting has been described as part of Trump’s outreach strategy with the Latino and African-American communities.  Martin Diego Garcia, Latino Victory Fund director of campaigns, issued the following statement:

“Latino Victory was not invited to Trump’s meeting with Latino activists, and after we requested an invitation to discuss Latino concerns and issues, we were blatantly ignored,” said Martin Diego Garcia, Latino Victory Fund director of campaigns. “This meeting was nothing but a sham perpetrated to gloss over Trump’s racist and bigoted attacks against the Latino community. But we will not be fooled by his two-faced attitude no matter how hard he tries to reverse his shameful behavior towards communities of color. Trump’s entire campaign was built on prejudice against Latino and immigrant communities, and we will not forget the harm that his dangerous rhetoric has inflicted on all of us.”
