Biden brings out the margaritas at Cinqo de Mayo party in the Rose Garden where he demands Congress act to help DREAMers who have been 'model citizens' and bashes Trump for his deportation plans

President Joe Biden hosted Hispanic powerbrokers and a few celebs at a Cinco de Mayo party in the Rose Garden that featured margaritas, mariachi music, and slams on his unnamed 'predecessor' Donald Trump.

The president cheered the contributions of Mexican Americans, twice mentioning that he has a bust of Cesar Chavez in the Oval Office, while blasting Trump's plans to deport millions of illegal immigrants.

'We are a nation of immigrants and we shouldn't forget it,' he said. He defended new rules for expanding health care access to so-called 'Dreamers' who came to the country illegally as children. He also renewed his demand that Congress act to give them permanent status.

'Give me a break. These have been model citizens. Congress has to act.'

'And I'm proud last Friday my administration finally announced a rule that for the first time in finally, finally I'm able to provide health insurance through the Affordable Care Act for DACA recipients,' Biden said, touting the new regulatory effort. 

In a crowd that included Mexican actor Cristo Fernandez along with cabinet secretaries Xavier Becerra, Miguel Cardona, and Isabel Casillas Guzman, Biden repeatedly tore into Donald Trump, without mentioning him by name. (Fernandez plays Dani Rojas in the Apple TV+ show Ted Lasso, whose stars previously visited the White House).

Biden got introduced by NBA player Jaime Jaquez of the Miami Heat.

'Thanks for the introduction, pal. I've always looked up to you,' Biden said to the 6-6 guard.

Guests feasted on aperitivos and waiters brought trays of margaritas to the crowd before the president spoke. 

On a humid day in D.C., Biden blasted Trump for his recent Time Magazine interview.

'In the same interview my predecessor vowed to use the U.S. military to deport 11 million people here in America ... He called immigrants rapists and murderers,' he said. 

'Folks, this is not who we are. That's not America,' Biden followed up. 

Trump in the interview got asked if his deportation plans included the military.

'It would,' he responded, adding, 'when we talk military, generally speaking, I talk National Guard.'

He said he would 'have no problem using the military, per se.'

'These aren't civilians,' Trump said. 'These are people that aren't legally in our country. This is an invasion of our country.'

It comes in an election where Hispanic voters will again be pivotal and where Trump has been making new inroads. 

Businessman and activist Henry Munoz predicted to DailyMail.com that Biden would beat Trump two-to-one among Hispanic voters. He accused Trump of telling Hispanic voters 'we don't belong here' while Biden is calling them the 'future of this country.'

'That's not even an immigrant question. That is an issue of, we are born here and we are the future of the economy,' he told DailyMail.com after the event. 'We already are the economy here.'
