George Lopez leads crowd in 'f***' Donald Trump chant at stand-up show
- Lopez was addressing comments Trump made about Mexican immigrants being criminals and 'rapists'
- The 54-year-old Latino comedian is considered to be one of the contenders to take Trump's job as host of the Celebrity Apprentice
At a stand-up performance in Arizona Saturday night, comedian George Lopez led the crowd in an impassioned chant against Donald Trump for his comments disparaging Mexican immigrants.
'This country is better for Latinos in it,' Lopez shouted to the crowd, who responded by chanting 'Donald Trump - f*** that p*to'.
P*to is the Spanish word for male prostitute, and it is considered to be a homophobic slur by some.

However, Lopez has received little flack for the public condemnation of Trump.
He has been regularly lashing out against the real estate mogul, ever since Trump called Mexican immigrants criminals and 'rapists' during a speech announcing his candidacy for president.
Lopez's criticism of Trump may just pay off for his career as well, as he is rumored to be on the short list of contenders to replace Trump as host of the Celebrity Apprentice.
NBC, the network that owns the rights to the reality show, cut all ties with Trump last month following the Mexican immigrant comments.
NBA legend Magic Johnson is also considered to be a top contender for the position. Sources close to the network told TMZ that they are looking for a successful minority businessman active in the inner cities to fill the position, qualities multi-millionaire Johnson possesses.
And Lopez isn't the only one calling out Trump. Fellow Latino celebrities like Ricky Martin, Eva Longoria, America Ferrera and the rapper Pitbull have issued statements against Trump.
