Televisa, a Mexican media company, has announced the next Miss Universe pageant will not have a representative from Mexico because Trump is a partial owner of the Miss Universe Organization and has offended Mexicans everywhere, CNN reported

Televisa and former Miss Universe Lupita Jones both help run Nuestra Belleza Mexico, a national pageant which determines the country's Miss Universe contestant, however, Jones is slamming Trump for his "racist comments."

"As a Mexican I feel very offended and outraged, like everyone else -- as Miss Universe I think Donald Trump is harming the organization," Jones tweeted.

While kicking off his 2016 presidential campaign a couple of weeks ago, Trump said in his speech, "The U.S. has become a dumping ground for everybody else's problems. When Mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best... They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good people."

A date for the next Miss Universe pageant has yet to be announced.

Although both NBC and the Spanish-language TV station Univision recently decided to drop Miss USA, which is scheduled for July 12 in Louisiana's capital, the pageant will still go on as planned, according to CNN.
