8:18Now PlayingA Univision anchor got some hate when she mentioned Trump in a commencement speech. Maria Elena Salinas was booed and called “trash” by members of the crowd, for saying something critical of the presidential candidate. Cenk Uygur, Ana Kasparian, and Ben Mankiewicz, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
“Some people in the crowd at a graduation ceremony at California State University, Fullerton, shouted at the commencement speaker after she talked about presidential candidate Donald Trump and gave a brief section of her address in Spanish.
“It’s really sad,” the commencement speaker, Maria Elena Salinas, an anchor for Spanish language broadcast network Univision, said Tuesday. “And it’s a testament to what has happened in our country. Our country is really divided.”
Salinas gave the keynote address to the entire university Sunday morning, was presented with an honorary doctorate, and spoke some words in Spanish to the parents of graduates. The student body is 40 percent Hispanic, and she felt the speech was well-received; several students thanked her afterward for addressing their parents in their native language. University leaders had encouraged her to say a few words in Spanish, she said; the school is a national leader in the number of Hispanic graduates it produces.”
