On Tuesday, Joaquin Castro, twin brother of Presidential Candidate Julio Castro, tweeted out the names (all part of public record, we should add) of over 40 prominent San Antonio business owners who have contributed thousands of dollars to Trump’s 2020 presidential campaign.
Sad to see so many San Antonians as 2019 maximum donors to Donald Trump — the owner of @BillMillerBarBQ, owner of the @HistoricPearl, realtor Phyllis Browning, etc.
Their contributions are fueling a campaign of hate that labels Hispanic immigrants as ‘invaders.’ pic.twitter.com/YT85IBF19u

Castro is far from wrong, but that didn’t stop our so-called “president” from lashing out in his usual way. He took to Twitter and attacked Castro calling him the “lesser brother of a failed presidential candidate (1%) who makes a fool of himself every time he opens his mouth.”
I don’t know who Joaquin Castro is other than the lesser brother of a failed presidential candidate (1%) who makes a fool of himself every time he opens his mouth. Joaquin is not the man that his brother is, but his brother, according to most, is not much. Keep fighting Joaquin!

Of course, Trump knows exactly who Castro is, and he wouldn’t react this way if he wasn’t threatened by the brothers in some way. Julian Castro, who is running for President, has picked up a lot of steam in the past few weeks. This did not go unnoticed by the Twitterverse, who made sure Trump knew exactly what they thought of his comments.
