Hello, I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance.
On June 16th, Donald Trump announced he was running for president.
Just three weeks later, he was at the top of the Republican polls.
From May to July, his popularity has soared.
As you can see on these graphs, among Republicans, his approval rating went from 23 to 57 percent.
His approval ratings for everyone Democrats, including Democrats, have also jumped.
Why? Because he is not on his knees to Mexico and Mexican immigrants.
Americans, real Americans, have been dreaming of a candidate who says the obvious, that illegal immigrants from Mexico are a low-rent bunch that includes rapists and murderers.
Mr. Trump promised to build a wall high enough to keep them out and to make Mexico pay for it.
Even Democrats seem to like that.
Of course, the usual people gasped and shrieked.
The Spanish-language television broadcaster Univision canceled its contract to broadcast a Miss Universe contest, which is partly owned by Mr. Trump.
And so did NBC, Costa Rican television, and the Mexican broadcaster Televisa.
Macy's said it would stop selling the Trump line of shirts and ties.
NASCAR, yes, NASCAR says it's canceling its annual awards banquet at the Trump Hotel in Miami.
ESPN says it's moving its celebrity golf classic away from a Trump golf course.
Even the Federal Aviation Administration says that it will rename navigation points around Palm Beach Airport that it had called"Donald" and"Trump" and"You Fired." Mr. Trump,
and this is another reason real Americans love him, laughed at all of this.
He said he would sue anyone who breaks a contract.
He called NBC weak and foolish for knuckling under to Hispanic pressure.
He said if NASCAR wants to use a different hotel, he will happily keep their fat deposit and rent the banquet hall to somebody else.
And real Americans are angry about all this retaliation.
30,000 Macy's customers have reportedly complained to the store for dropping Trump merchandise.
Thousands say they are cutting up their Macy's credit cards and will never shop there again.
In the meantime, the entire city of New York says it's reviewing its ties with Mr. Trump.
Mayor Bill de Blasio called Mr. Trump's remarks about immigrants disgusting and offensive, adding, and I quote, Our Mexican brothers and sisters make up an essential part of this city's vibrant and diverse community.
Got that?
Mexicans are essential.
Jeb Bush, married to a Mexican, complained about Mr. Trump's, quote, extraordinary kind of ugly statements.
He says, his views are way out of the mainstream of what Republicans think.
You're wrong, Jeb.
He's beating you in the polls.
On Monday, Hillary Clinton gave a speech to, of course, the National Council of La Raza.
She called what Mr. Trump says about Mexicans appalling.
Did he apologize, she asked?
No, he doubled down.
It's shameful, she complained.
Imagine that, a white man who doesn't apologize.
Mr. Trump laughed at her, too.
He said, and I quote, I am honored that she is attacking me instead of Jeb Bush.
Obviously, she knows that Jeb is no longer her real competition.
Now, wherever Mr. Trump goes, he faces demonstrators who liken him to the Ku Klux Klan and think he's a closet confederate.
Here are demonstrators making fun of Mr. Trump's association with beauty contests.
And here are demonstrators who have put a piñata of Mr. Trump into a garbage can.
Please note the yellow sign.
It says, Dump the Trump.
Fight white supremacy.
Immigrants learn the magic words very quickly, don't they?
If you don't want drug runners and murderers prancing across the border, you're a white supremacist.
Mr. Trump has not backed off one inch.
He has been appearing at campaign events with the relatives of people killed by illegals.
Here he is with Jameel Shaw.
His son was shot to death by an illegal who mistook him for a gang rival.
Mr. Shaw says that Mr. Trump is the only candidate who ever showed he cared.
Just a few days after Ms. Trump announced his candidacy, in San Francisco, an illegal from Mexico who had been deported five times shot and killed Kathy Steinle, a 31-year-old woman who was out taking a walk with her dad.
This is exactly what Mr. Trump has been talking about.
And even the Washington Post published an op-ed blasting President Obama for his silence on Ms. Steinle.
The President got mighty excited about Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, and Freddie Gray, the Post pointed out, but not one word about Kathy Steinle.
So just by talking about immigrant crime, Mr. Trump has forced everyone to talk about it.
Lefties have had to run off and look up crime statistics so they can argue that illegals aren't any more crime-prone than natives, or, well, not that much more crime-prone.
The subject is now out of the shadows.
As Ann Coulter points out, we don't get to choose who's born here.
I wish we could.
But we can sure choose who we let in.
And even one killer or rapist is too many.
Mr. Trump is the only politician willing to use the words"immigrant" and"criminal" in the same sentence, and Americans are thrilled.
After a Twitter exchange with El Chapo Guzman, Mexico's most notorious drug lord, who broke out of prison last Saturday, Mr. Trump concluded: They get the money.
Here's El Chapo's wife, by the way, a former Miss Sinaloa.
She's got Mexican-American dual citizenship.
In 2011, El Chapo sent Mrs. El Chapo back to the U.S. to have their twin girls.
So the billionaire drug lord's kitties are U.S. citizens, too.
But back to Mr. Trump.
Two years ago at CPAC, he warned Republicans that they are on, in his words, A suicide mission, if they amnesty illegals and let them vote.
He said we should let in more immigrants from Europe, of all places.
"Tremendous people, hardworking people," he said,"and they can't come in." It's about time a candidate talked like that.
One of Mr. Trump's huge advantages is that he's a real person.
Voters are sick of constantly scripted cardboard cutouts.
Who have to take five polls before they open their mouths.
So it's no wonder the rest of the Republicans are terrified.
Here's a graph that shows who's ahead.
The red line over on the right that shoots up like an arrow?
That's Donald Trump.
It's still early in the campaign, and there's a lot we don't know.
Would he reduce legal immigration?
Would he eliminate race preferences for non-whites?
Would he ever pronounce the four magic syllables?
Race and IQ.
Who knows?
