evidence: Former President Donald Trump said in a recent interview that undocumented immigrants were "poisoning the blood of our country," using language that is often employed by White supremacists and nativists in comments that have drawn rebuke from one prominent civil rights group. [...] Trump’s comments, which gained traction online this week, drew condemnation from the Anti-Defamation League, whose leader called the remarks "racist, xenophobic and despicable." [...] "That’s a normal phrase that is used in everyday life – in books, television, movies, and in news articles. For anyone to think that is racist or xenophobic is living in an alternate reality consumed with non-sensical outrage," Trump campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung said in a statement.
