It's a bird, it's a plane...

No, it's "Mexican plane...getting ready to attack."

This was the bizarre joke that Donald Trump tried to bring in for a landing during a rally in Manchester, New Hampshire, Thursday.

When a plane flew overhead during a discussion on Mexico, Trump jested: "In fact that could be a Mexican plane up there they're getting ready to attack."

Trump has taken aim at Mexico from the moment his campaign started, vowing to build a wall, slamming illegal immigration and even saying that the country was sending rapists to the U.S.

The real estate mogul has drawn fire for his comments and most recently suggested that a judge presiding over two cases against his now-defunct school, Trump University, may not be able to be fair because of his Mexican heritage.
