It is not pretending. The term is Spanglish and considered pejorative and racist by Latinos. On more than one occasion, I proved it in the past with links to Hispanic groups and individuals who found its use extremely offensive. But as you can see, it didn't do any good with the OP, so I am not taking the time to research it again. Quote

Go out and find some compromised site that backs up your inane claim Bad hombre It's a bilingual way of saying "bad man" (the word "hombre" means "man" in Spanish). Squissy falsely claims that it's a racial slur. I would argue that it's not a racial slur, because it insults someone for the content of their character, not for their race. Quote

Yes it is. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/trumps-bad-hombres-draws-jeers-spanish-lessons To some, Trump’s ‘bad hombres’ is much more than a botched Spanish word PHOENIX — Donald Trump’s utterance of “bad hombres” offended some of the millions of people watching the final presidential debate, who called it racially divisive. Within minutes of using the phrase Wednesday evening, the Republican presidential nominee was getting a lashing about his mishmash of English and Spanish. “We have some bad hombres here, and we’re gonna get ’em out,” said Trump, whose rise to the party nomination was fueled in part by his plan to build a wall at the U.S.-Mexico border. He blamed these “hombres,” (OHM-brays) Spanish for men, for drug epidemics around the U.S. Trump has worked to broaden his appeal to Hispanics, promising a better life if he’s president. But to some voters, it’s a lost cause. Taylor Brandreth watched the debate while visiting in Bradenton, Florida. He backed Trump in the primary in Virginia, where he works as a government consultant, but that was mainly to block Sen. Marco Rubio from clinching the GOP nomination. Now he’s a Hillary Clinton supporter, and it’s largely because of what he considers Trump’s racially divisive tactics, including the use of “Spanglish.” “I speak Spanish fluently. I have to honestly say, listening to it, my jaw just instantly dropped because it was like a taunt,” said Brandreth, 27. “There was nothing good in the context. It was like, ‘Let me say something awful and racist and let me butcher this other language while I’m doing it.'” Quote
