Vice President Mike Pence hosted a Cinco de Mayo party this week, where ended up praising Donald Trump’s focus on Latinos. Read his remarks HERE.

“We are, as the saying goes, with a few exceptions, a nation of immigrants, and that’s as true today as it was at the hour of America’s birth,” said Pence. “The president has made the Latino community a priority and we always will. Economically, culturally, in our churches, our towns and cities across this country, the truth is that Mexican-Americans and Hispanic Americans as a whole make a difference in America every single day. That really is what we celebrate in Cinco de Mayo.”

Last year during the VP debate, he also spoke about Mexicans: “When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best…They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.” He also referred to Donald’s previous comments as “that Mexican thing”
