'Kimmel' Guest Host Diego Luna Rails Against Trump's 'Hate Speech' In Scathing Opener
HuffPost
The actor drew a standing ovation for a monologue in defense of immigrants in America.
“Jimmy Kimmel Live” guest host Diego Luna on Monday called out President Donald Trump’s policies on immigration as he delivered an impassioned defense of undocumented workers.
“I have never been able to fully understand how it is that someone like Donald Trump is able to acquire this level of power,” said Luna, who is from Mexico. “I always struggle to understand how his hate speech can take root in a country whose nature has always been a welcoming one.”
Now, he said, too many are living in fear ― and are afraid to show up at work or take their kids to school.
“This is very unfair and let me tell you why,” the “Andor” star said. “The multiple times that this country has had to rebuild itself, immigrants were always there to pick up the slack.”
He said immigrant workers risked their lives to fight the fires in Los Angeles earlier this year.
