Comedian George Lopez, known for his work on TV shows including “Lopez Tonight,” “Saint George” and his ABC sitcom “George Lopez,” has plenty to say about Donald Trump — including how Trump could be elected despite, or because of, his controversial comments about Mexican immigrants.

During a street interview by TMZ.com, Lopez encouraged Latinos to boycott Trump. Referencing Trump’s remarks about Mexican immigrants, Lopez said, “Those comments are vile in any civilized society.”

But there is a positive side to the controversy, according to Lopez. “It has created a dialogue that I think America needs to have,” he said.

Lopez hinted that Trump might have a chance in the election, saying: “There’s enough racists in this country for him to get elected.”

Then he quipped: “If he wins, he won’t have to worry about immigration — we’ll all go back.”
