Trump unyielding over judge Comments
WASHINGTON - Presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump on Monday rejected a barrage of criticism from his own party over his allegations of bias against a Hispanic judge, insisting his concerns were valid.
'All I want to do is figure out why I'm being treated unfairly by a judge,” Trump said on Fox News.
Trump has been on the defensive since his comments last week about Mexican-American U.S. District Judge Gonzalo Curiel, who is overseeing fraud lawsuits against Trump University.
Trump told campaign supporters in a conference call they should stand by him in his attacks on the judge, Bloomberg Politics reported.
