Twitter users enlighten Pence on the true meaning of #ThatMexicanThing
The offensive comments just keep on coming this election season.
Towards the end of last night's vice presidential debate, Mike Pence caused quite the commotion after Democratic candidate Tim Kaine highlighted several derogatory comments Pence's running mate, Donald Trump, has made about Mexicans.
Pence reacted to Kaine's words by saying, "Senator, you whipped out that Mexican thing again."
