Donald Trump filed a $500 million lawsuit against Univision today over the network’s decision to terminate its contract with Trump’s Miss Universe Organization and not broadcast the upcoming Miss USA pageant, according to New York state court records.
The Spanish-language broadcaster recently announced it would not show the July 12 Miss USA pageant after Trump made “insulting remarks about Mexican immigrants” during a speech announcing his presidential candidacy.
“When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best,” Trump said in the speech. “They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”
When asked by ABC News last week whether he regretted those comments, Trump said, “Not at all. I said it about people from all over. I didn’t say it about Mexico – I said people from all over.”
