Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has taken a fresh dig at Mexico. Speaking at a rally in New Hampshire, Trump joked that a plane that was flying overhead might actually be a Mexican fighter jet poised for attack.
“Mexico... I respect Mexico, I respect their leaders, what they’ve done to us is incredible,” the 69-year-old billionaire said, “Their leaders are so much smarter, so much sharper.”
When a random plane flew by, Trump suddenly added, “In fact, that could be a Mexican plane up there. They could be getting ready to attack.”
