If there ’s one thing Donald Trump probably never think for hisimplodingimprobable presidential campaign to fulfil , it ’s help tourism in Mexico . During the third and final presidential debate , the Republican campaigner glorify his immigration policies , explicate that a growing numeral of “ bad hombres ” who speak Spanish are to blame for the disastrous state of our country .
The estimate of “ bad hombres ” – which in Trump ’s mind probably depend like a hypotheticalBad Boys 2remake set in Tijuana – speedily ping across the cyberspace , becoming one of the eventide ’s lasting soundbites . The idiomatic expression conjured such a firestorm , in fact , thatAeromexicois using it to marketplace budget trips to Latin America .
As you may see , the airway is tantalizing would - be tourists with the tagline , “ Bad Hombres , Great Deals ! ” Aeromexico hawks the promise of saving “ bigly ” on international fares starting at $ 199 , using the Donald ’s lingua franca in a brainy display of trolling .
Aeromexico
While Trump has been afford enough loose printing press to keep his aura afloat for the next thousand military campaign season , it seems the tycoon is lend his own marketing genius to a Mexican airline , and for zero monetary value . ( SAD ! ) . And for what it ’s worth , the batch do n’t look half defective : If you ’re interested , you’re able to guide from Las Vegas to Mexico City for $ 249 , Chicago to Guadalajara for $ 169 , and Dallas to Mexico City for $ 199 .
As for why Aeromexico resolve to force - provender Trump his own lingual - salad in the form of an beguiling holiday bundle , Anko Van Der Werff , the airline ’s Head of Marketing and E - commerce , say Thrillist in an email :
" We watched the third debate last week and we just felt like having fun . By now the entire world is engrossed in these election so we add up out with something we thought would resonate with people . And yes , it did indeed provide us with the perfect angle to attract even more Americans to visit our beautiful country , which has so much to extend in term of business , culture and beaches . "
Good on you , Aeromexico . Good on you .
