Rep. Ritchie Torres Plays The Race Card On Trump Bronx Rally And Gets Buried By The Receipts

Rep.

Ritchie Torres is an elected representative of the American people.

In his case, that means the South Bronx, which makes up most of his district.

Because Trump came straight into his backyard to a cheering throng, Torres was maybe the maddest of all.

He tried using the race card as well, saying that only white people support Trump.

-- Ritchie Torres @RitchieTorres: “Donald Trump’s rally may be IN the South Bronx but it is not OF the South Bronx.

Bluntly put, the Trump transplants are much whiter than the locals of the South Bronx, which is almost entirely Latino and Black.” -- Oh really, Ritchie?

They're all 'white transplants'?

First of all, shame on you for your awful race-hustling.

But more importantly, the facts don't seem to back you up.

Fortunately, Twitter brought plenty of receipts to show Torres how wrong -- and hilariously desperate -- he was.
