4:56Now PlayingDonald Trump found himself inadvertently a part of a Mexican Easter tradition as people across that country burned him in effigy. They are apparently not Trump fans. John Iadarola (ThinkTank) and Jimmy Dore, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"Mexicans celebrating an Easter ritual late on Saturdayburnt effigies of U.S. Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump, whose anti-immigrant views have sparked outrage south of the American border.
In Mexico City’s poor La Merced neighborhood, hundreds of cheering residents yelled “death” and various insults as they watched the explosion of the grinning papier-mâché mock-up of the real estate tycoon, replete with blue blazer, red tie and his trademark tuft of blond hair.
Media reported that Trump effigies burned across Mexico, from Puebla to Mexico’s industrial hub Monterrey.
The burning is part of a widespread Mexican Holy Week tradition where neighborhoods burn effigies to represent Judas Iscariot, who betrayed JesusChrist according to the Bible. The effigies are often modeled on unpopular political figures.”*
