Mayor Eats Tacos To Help Latinos?

"East Haven, Conn. Mayor Joseph Maturo is apologizing for comments he made yesterday that he now considers "off-collar". When asked what he'd do to reassure Latino residents following the arrests of police officers on abuse and discrimination charges, Maturo said he'd probably go out for a taco meal...".* Ana Kasparian, Cenk Uygur, Jesus Godoy and Jayar Jackson on if he was serious or joking.

"What are you doing for the Latino community today?"

A. I might have tacos when I go home, I'm not quite sure yet.

This is what happens when you let your stomach do the talking.
