More pathetic garbage from Trump today. He's not a real candidate. He's in this to get Hillary the presidency. What's really hilarious is that some people will still find a way to defend him despite that he's purposely trying to make himself look bad. Now that's a really stupid voter base he's got.
The judge has ties to LA Raza, essentially a gang and arguably a Mexican terrorist group.
As evidence of what they say is Curiel's bias, Trump and some of his supporters have pointed to the judge's membership in La Raza Lawyers of San Diego, a local group for Hispanic lawyers that is affiliated with the Hispanic National Bar Association.
Some Trump supporters have incorrectly linked La Raza Lawyers to the National Council of La Raza, a 50-year-old civil rights group that has been strongly critical of Trump's proposals on immigration, as well as his idea to temporarily ban Muslims from entering the United States.

Well he's being honest and truthful.

It's not unreasonable to be skeptical about the judge's ability to remain unbiased.
THE first tweet arrived as cryptic code, a signal to the army of the "alt-right" that I barely knew existed: "Hello ((Weisman))." @CyberTrump was responding to my recent tweet of an essay by Robert Kagan on the emergence of fascism in the United States.
"Care to explain?" I answered, intuiting that my last name in brackets denoted my Jewish faith.
"What, ho, the vaunted Ashkenazi intelligence, hahaha!" CyberTrump came back. "It’s a dog whistle, fool. Belling the cat for my fellow goyim." With the cat belled, the horde was unleashed.

People say Trump is not racist - but he has the full support of racists - so...
People outside the alt-right began to learn about the echo when the New York Times's deputy Washington editor wrote a column about his experience with anti-Semitic online harassment from Donald Trump fans.

Yep. Look at the racists that post freely here on ATS. All trump lovers.
Yet Blitzer pressed Trump, “But the anti-Semitic death threats that have followed...” Trump interrupted, “Oh, I don't know about that. I don't know anything about that. You mean fans of mine?”
Blitzer responded, “Supposed fans of posting these very angry—but your message to these fans is?”
This is the moment at which Trump should’ve clearly condemned the anti-Semitic comments. And if Trump were a true leader, he would’ve encouraged his “fans” to stop spewing such hate.
But he didn’t. Instead Trump responded: “I don’t have a message to the fans.” And then, astoundingly, he attacked Ioffe again. “A woman wrote an article that’s inaccurate.”
In Trump’s first day after effectively wrapping up the GOP nomination, he has again failed to make it clear that there’s no place for bigotry and hate on his behalf.
When Ronald Reagan was endorsed by the Ku Klux Klan in 1984, he made it clear in a letter to the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights that he despised the Klan and absolutely did not want its support. Reagan wrote in part, “The politics of racial hatred and religious bigotry practiced by the Klan and others have no place in this country, and are destructive of the values for which America has always stood.”
In February, when Jake Tapper asked Bernie Sanders about the supporters who had been making sexist comments online in support of his candidacy, he denounced them unequivocally. The Vermont senator told Tapper, “I have heard about it. It’s disgusting.” Not only did he pledge that his campaign would try to stop these sexist attacks, he declared, “We don’t want them. I don’t want them. That is not what this campaign is about.”
That should’ve been Trump’s response, too...
