Exactly one week from Tuesday Donald Trump will be in the Valley.

His trip to Tulare County comes after a recent change of heart on his stance on immigration.

Monday night Trump said he doesn’t want to deport every undocumented immigrant just “the bad ones.”

Many Latinos in the Valley say they see Trump is easing up his stance a bit on immigration, but that doesn’t change how they feel about his campaign.

“As a Hispanic voter, I’ve come to see Donald Trump as someone we really can’t trust,” said David Alvarez, Local Voter.

Alvarez was raised on a farm. His family are farmers.

“90 percent of my family was undocumented,” said Alvarez.

Now they own their own farm and are eligible to vote.



He says Trump easing his stance on immigration leaves him with more questions than answers.

“Now he’s pretty much saying we are only going to get rid of the bad ones, well who are the bad ones?” said Alvarez.

“We are never going to forget the hateful comments that helped build his candidacy,” said Giselle Gasca, with Mi Familia Vota.

Gasca says Trump’s recent comments on immigration is a political stunt.

“He’s trying hard now that he’s seen that his numbers have dropped,” said Gasca.

At the Nisei Farmers League workers made a poster that says ‘pro immigrant and proud.’

Manuel Cunha says he wants it hung every where Trump will step foot in the Valley.

“We are hoping that he understands immigrants is what made this country, and if he thinks he is going to come in and change that people are going to confront him,” said Cunha.

One of those people is Alvarez, and he plans to fight back with his vote.

“Donald trump as president? No way,” said Alvarez.

California Republican Party Associate Representative Guillermo Moreno believes Trump’s comments will resonate with Hispanics in the Valley.

“Even Hilary Clinton said opinions can change, the Obama administration couldn’t deal with immigration, so for Trump to say ‘hey let me take a step back and look at immigration’ is a good thing especially for many immigrants here in the valley,” said Moreno.
