CHRISTIANE AMANPOUR: So, Ramos has written a book about what it means to be an immigrant in America. It's called "Stranger, The Challenge of a Latino Immigrant in the Trump Era", and he´s joining me now from Miami.
Jorge, welcome to the program. It is extraordinary to introduce you with that piece of videotape and that reminder of what happened a couple of years ago. Um, your thoughts now, seeing that, you know, yeah, I mean, he just didn't want to answer your question. Even before you started with the statements.
JORGE RAMOS, PRESENTER, UNIVISION NEWS: Well, yes, it was -- I have to admit, it was a long question. But you've been to many press conferences, and not all the time you wait for your turn. If I had waited for my turn, believe me, I would be waiting right now.
