If there’s one sentence I honestly never thought I’d write, it’s: Waka Flocka Flame is not taking Donald Trump’s statements about Mexican illegal immigrants lightly, and fires back ahead of their race to the 2016 election.
Trump originally made the comments in his campaign announcement speech, claiming that “When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending the best. They’re not sending you, they’re sending people that have lots of problems and they’re bringing those problems. 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.”
He (rightfully so) copped some massive heat about it, and after standing by his words, many business partners of Trump’s empire announced plans to cut their ties.
But that’s not the worst of it. Then, to put the cherry on top of the whole Trump situation, Atlanta rapper Waka Flocka Flame (who is also in the 2016 presidential race) came out on Twitter with his thoughts on it all. Check his tweets below.
I wonder how many hardworking Mexicans built those #trumptowers #patheticman!!!!

Keep it locked on Howl & Echoes for extensive coverage of the 2016 Presidential Election – particularly the feud between these two and (hopefully) Trump’s eventual response to the tweets.
