I wonder whether is it worthy for Trump to loose Carlos Slim in return for support from anti-Latino sentiments.
The question is: How big is the anti-Latino sentiment in US?
@jhungary @rcrmj what're your views?

personally, I would not take advice from a person who in dire need for a hairdo.
But for Trump, he have no love lost to the second riches man on earth, he wanted to go for Presidency, and he already had enough money to buy whatever support he needed, how many people actually vote for him is another question, but then again, he is trump, the sexist business man alive 2 years in a row, he would have found a way.
About anti-Hispanic sentiment, there are gonna be some as with other minority group, and especially heated near the border area, but general sentiment are calm, and I would not imagine any significant gain for candidate putting out anti-Hispanic card, on the other hand, it would probably do more good for anyone playing the Hispanic card, especially in big primary vote states like Florida, Texas and California.
P.S. It may interest you to know, border discrimination is quite rampant on all border state in the US, and not just discriminate to the neighbour to the south, but Canadian too...
