They make Spanish-language music called Cold Blue and I met then at a Lat-Rap conference and they seem like real good peoples from Central America... and that's what it is.

He just showed up unannounced, uninvited, and I guess they spent their lunch hour with him.

But they weren't nearly as nice as the Uruguayans. They're quite proud and pissed off, the Spaniards.

Donald Trump is a very good executive.
