Mexican Laborer Demolishes Donald Trump's Bigotry In Just 1 Minute

One minute; one seriously epic comeback.

A Mexican laborer had a few choice words for Donald Trump in a video uploaded to YouTube June 30 by Rafael Rivero, a co-founder of Occupy Democrats living in Philadelphia. The man was responding to derogatory comments Trump made about immigrants from Latin America during his announcement for the 2016 GOP presidential nomination last month.

"When Mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best," Trump said. "They're not sending you. They're not sending you. 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."

In the 57-second clip, the man, who was building a home in 107-degree heat, challenged Trump's bigoted misconceptions about Mexicans.

"We work ourselves to death just to eat," he said, pointing to his fellow laborers "busting their butts in the sun." He added that $350 of his $1,100-per-week salary goes "to feed your lazy, unemployed drug addicts."

Occupy Democrats is an advocacy group founded in 2012 in response to the Tea Party to push for progressive reforms. Rivero was not immediately available for further comment.
