STEVE INSKEEP, HOST:
Good morning, I'm Steve Inskeep. A Mexican TV network found a pitchman for Mexico's upcoming soccer match against the United States, Donald Trump. A commercial uses actual Trump statements about Mexicans.
(SOUNDBITE OF AD)
DONALD TRUMP: When Mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best.
INSKEEP: Cut to shots of Mexican soccer stars. The ad goes on to quote Trump complaining the U.S. no longer wins victories and then this.
(SOUNDBITE OF AD)
TRUMP: The American dream is dead - is dead.
INSKEEP: It's MORNING EDITION.
