we met for about two hours at the apartment of steve wynn our mutual friend, the las vegas casino andotel owner, and we had a cordial conversation for about two hours. stuart: now, this thing about the judge, the so-called quote, mexican judge, and also can a muslim judge be impartial, that's not making it easier for you and donald trump to get back together again, is it? >> well, that's not important. what is damaging, in helping him move forward and particularly in helping him make inroads into the latino community. mitt romney lost nationwide when he had 27% support among latinos. george bush won nationwide when he got 44%. i think there's a relationship between those numbers and the outcomes, and it doesn't help donald trump when he takes a guy who was born in indiana to parents who immigrated legally from mexico and calls him a mexican. how do you think it makes people who are mexican americans feel, someone who was born on u.s. soil is dismissed by u.s. soil as a, as a mexican, as opposed to an american, and b, simply because of where his parents came from, to be opposed to dona
