In taking on Jorge Ramos, Donald Trump may have tussled with the wrong media star

In his latest showdown, Donald Trump ordered Univision anchor Jorge Ramos out of a news conference, telling him to "go back to Univision." Ramos, who like Trump is known for his confrontational style, didn't back down until he was escorted out of the room by security. Eventually, Ramos was invited back, where he sparred with Trump over the Republican candidate's immigration proposals. Trump has had some high-profile tiffs with media figures recently, battling publicly with Fox News Channel anchor Megyn Kelly, and with the network's chairman, Roger Ailes.

But prodding Ramos, who has been called the Spanish-language Walter Cronkite, could prove dangerous for Trump, who thus far been something of a Teflon candidate. Here's why:

• Ramos is a very important figure for American Latinos
• Ramos has a personal connection to immigration issues
• Ramos sees himself as an advocate for millions of Latino immigrants, and so do they
• Much like Trump, Ramos seems to welcome conflict and doesn't often back down
