Think you can break me open, loser?
National Republican candidates and staffers may be publicly scolding Donald Trump for his egregious, racist comments about undocumented workers, but one New Mexico Republican staffer is in
hot water after using a Trump piñata:
Former Santa Fe County GOP treasurer Ignacio Padilla says he wasn't acting as a party official when he organized the event last week to allow residents to hit a piñata that bore Trump's likeness.
Padilla says he was exercising his right to free speech and believes Trump's previous comments about Mexican immigrants and Mexican Americans belittles Latinos.
He was apparently given prior warning:
Chairwoman Jo Ann Eastham says elected party officials are required to maintain neutrality in primaries. She says Padilla was warned not to host the event.
Well, Ignacio Padilla, perhaps it is time to consider joining a party who doesn't view hardworking undocumented workers as criminals and rapists? Just saying.
