The Donald Trump campaign hit an embarrassing bump on the election trail yesterday (July 14). A Trump intern tweeted a promotional photo that accidentally featured Nazi soldiers.

They're bringing crime. They're rapists."
The verbal tirade prompted Mexican cartel chief Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman to tweet a death threat targeting Trump on July 13. This was just one day after Guzman successfully escaped from a Mexican prison. In his tweet, which was also loaded with Spanish profanities, El Chapo promised to make Trump "eat his words."

Trump's tweet was truthful -- here's an in-depth breakdown of all the Donald Trump bankruptcy charges...
