Mexican presidential hopeful Andres Manuel López Obrador held a mass rally in Los Angeles on Sunday to criticize American President Donald J. Trump’s plans to build a wall across the U.S.-Mexico border.

The populist López Obrador hoped to rally supporters against his country’s ruling party, the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI), and to capitalize on resentment over Trump’s border wall proposal, wire service Reuters reported.

“I think the wall and the demagoguery of patriotism are no match for the dignity and humanity of the American people,” López Obrador said during his rally.

The Mexican politician went on to praise California as “a refuge and blessing for immigrants,” and exclaimed “long live California,” to the cheers of the crowd.

The candidate added that Trump is “stirring up” Americans against Mexicans, according to a version of his speech published on his website.

“Donald Trump and his advisors have gained from stirring up members in certain sectors of U.S. society against immigrants and, particularly, those of Mexican nationality,” he said.

“When they want to build a wall to segregate populations, or when the word ‘foreigner’ is used to insult, denigrate and discriminate against our fellow human beings, it goes against humanity, it goes against intelligence and against history,” López Obrador told the crowd.

Lopez Obrador also whipped up the crowd by insisting that he would spearhead a move in the United Nations to file human rights violations against the United States.

The candidate ended his speech by slamming Trump’s campaign phrase, “Make American Great Again.”

“Neither the United States nor the American continent come first. What comes first is to build here on this earth the kingdom of justice and universal brotherhood,”López Obrador concluded.

LOL!!! That is pathetic. Pandering for votes in our country for an election in theirs.

First of all, you are a racist pig.

Second, who the hell do you think you are coming into our country and insult both our President and the American people?

Lastly, who the hell invited you here? This is our land and neither you or your illegal alien criminal moochers are welcomed so get the hell out and take your blood sucking leaches with you.

That's sad... to think we have that many illegal alien Mexicans here that now there politians come here to campaign.

Trump and Congress needs to immediately do something to put an end to this as this should be illegal.

Can you imagine if our politians went to Mexico to campaign and hold rally's?

Just another example of why many call it Lost Angeles.

Need to pull his Passport or Visa or how ever he hell he got into the Country.

Maybe we should go down their and protest against THEIR corrupt President and demand he do something to put HIS people to work and on a path to success on HIS soil.

Arrest him. IS ridiculous of foreigner visitor, possible next president of Mexico..be a part of rally against our democracy,our president and Americans...!

Why would our government allow this to happen?

What could our government do to stop it? The man is allowed a visa issued in a US consulate or above in Mexico and once here has 1st Amendment rights until he departs.

Visa applicants have to apply and give a reason for their visit. We don't have to let anyone in we don't want to. Oops, I digress, according to the 9th Circuit Court we do. :cry:

Yeah, exactly. But look, there are two sides to free speech, and I support both of them. I love it when our dear President can say whatever he wants, rightly, wrongly, accurately or sometimes inaccurately. I also love it when his opponents can say whatever they want, rightly, wrongly, accurately or almost always inaccurately. I love it when I cab say whatever I want and you can say whatever you want.

Our citizens in foreign countries have the right to vote in our elections by absentee ballot. So their citizens here have the right to vote there. Dual citizens also have the right to vote in both elections of their citizenships.

What is so unusual about this visit and this speech is that there are enough Mexicans in the United States with Mexican citizenship to have a rally to pander for votes by criticizing the building of the wall and our President.

Of course that number will greatly reduce when we deport the 30 million plus illegal aliens who are here. Keep the focus. A lot of our problems and disharmony will evaporate the day the last one is shipped out of here. The key to solving this problem is deporting every single one of them on the earliest possible date by all means necessary, whatever it takes. That's always been the only real solution. White collar desk remedies like laws and rules etc. don't work for people willing to break them, you need boots and shoes on the ground, physical removals, because there is no other solution.
