I think it's up to the race he's going after to decide if this is offensive or not. And we Latinos agree it's offensive. Mainly because it's not funny it's just thinly veiled jokes used to push his real beliefs. And his "jokes" are lame and lazy. We have a good sense of humor I'm sure that's been established throughout the years, if you make good jokes about us we'll laugh and even respect you, but this guy is a known right winger and he's making these "jokes" that are clearly not really jokes.

Also he said later people took it out of context but I think context makes it worse, the context is that he said this stuff during an official event for an official candidate
