Donald Trump has been in deep water with the Latino community ever since he made some very insensitive comments in regards to Mexicans (I’m pretty sure El Chapo is currently on his way to get him, BTW.) Everyone is so upset that even the NBC network is considering pulling him from “Celebrity Apprentice” and replacing him with none other than the famous Mexican-American comedian/actor, George Lopez! One worce has revealed, “There have been initial conversations with George Lopez’s representatives, and, given Donald Trump’s crazy comments, George would be the perfect loud response to Trump.” Representatives from Lopez’s camp have yet to release a statement on the potential new position, I’m sure we’ll find out soon what’s going on. However, Lopez is not the only candidate in the running for the position. Other famous names such as Mark Cuban, Sir Richard Branson and Martha Stewart are also potential hosts for the NBC show. Although this is still in the extremely early stages, it would be the ultimate FU to Donald Trump if he was replaced by one of the most popular Mexicans in the industry. Do you think George Lopez would be a good fit?
