CAN THIS LATINO LAWMAKER HELP STOP TRUMP’S WHITE HOUSE?
Antonio Villaraigosa has a shot at becoming California’s first Latino governor since 1875. But he doesn’t want to hear that.
“I’m an American, not only a Latino,” Villaraigosa said in a recent interview with Newsweek. “I love this country.”
With the election still a year away, Villaraigosa, who appeared on the cover of Newsweek after becoming Los Angeles’ first Latino mayor in 2005, already faces a long road to Sacramento. His chief opponent, former mayor of San Francisco and current Lieutenant Governor Gavin Newsom, a so-called “golden boy of California politics,” is out-polling and out-fundraising him.
….Last month, his campaign released a 12-minute video created by Mark Putnam, the director behind one of Barack Obama’s famous 30-minute campaign video during the 2008 presidential election. In the video, Villaraigosa celebrates his working-class and Latino background while blasting the Trump administration’s onslaught of anti-immigration policies.

Can President Trump Save California?
Antonio Villaraigosa stands a good chance of being elected governor of California. If that happens, America stands a good chance of losing California.
From 1992 to 2002, I ran a California group, Voice of Citizens Together, that fought against illegal immigration. One of our major achievements was Proposition 187, a ballot measure designed to cut off taxpayer funding for illegal aliens.
Proposition 187 was passed by California voters overwhelmingly, only to be killed – illegally – by Gray Davis, the Governor of California, and Antonio Villaraigosa, Speaker of the California Assembly.
See: The Big 187 Spin = A Brief History of California’s Proposition 187.
In 1999, my group attempted to place an ad in the Los Angeles Daily News opposing Villaraigosa’s run for Mayor of Los Angeles.
In a blatant attack on political free speech, the Los Angeles Times threatened the Daily News and it killed the ad. Our attempt to sue the Times ran into a political machine and it went nowhere.
Our attempt to recall Gov. Davis met the same fate.
The mainstream media will not tell the true story of how California became a state on the verge of separatism — and Mexican domination.
I could tell that story, which is exactly why the media work hard to make sure my voice is not heard.
I couldn’t save California, but President Trump can.
PS: This short clip from my video Conquest of Azlan gives you a taste of who Antonio Villaraigosa really is.
