The person who spoke just before Trump, made an explicit, specific, crystal clear reference to MS-13.
And Trump then speaks in vague terms that align with so many previous comments broad brushing all immigrants with racist imagery. He can't have it both ways.

The whole MS-13 argument is intentionally blown way out of proportion anyway as is his whole immigration argument. The hyperbole combined with the bigotry is foul and diminishes from what we should be doing to provide security in spirit with American values.
