Cher and other blue checks are blaming Trump after a black woman allegedly beat a 91-year-old man with a brick and told him to 'Go back to Mexico!'

Rodolfo Rodriguez, a 91-year-old legal permanent resident visiting his family in Los Angeles was savagely beaten by a woman with a brick and told “Go back to Mexico!”:

An eyewitness caught the beating on camera, which included a second attack by a group of men. From HuffPost:

Borjas, who caught the incident on camera and called 911, said she tried to intervene but the woman threatened to attack her too.

Rodriguez, who was born in Mexico and is a permanent resident of the United States, told reporters that the woman enlisted a group of men to join the attack. She allegedly told them Rodriguez was trying to snatch her daughter from her.

“But that’s not true,” Rodriguez told CNN in Spanish this week. “In the years I have been alive, I have never offended anyone.”

The men, whose relationship to the woman is unknown, kicked Rodriguez while he lay “crumpled on the ground and stomped on his head,” Borjas told the Post. The group fled before police arrived.

More from Borjas, via CNN:

“I heard her saying, go back to your country, go back to Mexico,” she told CNN by phone. “When I tried to videotape her with my cell phone, she threw that same concrete block, tried to hit my car.”

Entertainment blogger Perez Hilton (actually, the attack occurred near Compton so this makes it Dem L.A. Mayor Eric Garcetti’s America or Dem Gov. Jerry Brown’s America):

In Donald Trump’s America… https://t.co/mwv9TU57LP

And many, many more:

Fake @POTUS @realDonaldTrump has been urging his supporters to "rough -em up" in this way in all his rallies – "they" being non-whites, particularly those from Mexico or South America. THE @GOP SUPPORTS HIM. THIS IS THEIR AMERICA https://t.co/odvFEVRh2C

– Anti-Hispanic and Anti-Latino hate crimes up 50% this year.
– Trump's words and policies dehumanize immigrants & fuel xenophobic violence.

The black woman is a white supremacist? This is all so confusing.
