Very serious Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump took time during last week's campaign announcement to totally rail against Mexicans and further Latino stereotypes under the guise of sharing his position on U.S. border control.

"[Mexico is] sending people that have lots of problems and they're bringing those problems," he said. "They're bringing drugs, they're bringing crime. They're rapists and some, I assume, are good people, but I speak to border guards and they're telling us what we're getting."
