INDIANAPOLIS -- Some of the most prominent Indiana politicians have voiced their opinions on Donald Trump's recent comments about the impartiality of an Indiana-born judge because of his ethnicity.
"He's a member of a club or society very strongly pro-Mexican, which is all fine," Trump said in an interview with ABC News. "But I say he's got bias. I want to build a wall. I'm going to build a wall."
