Mexican President Cancels Trip To Washington After Heated Call With Trump

[Moonglow]

I was in the field since 1978.....

shucking corn?

Pickin' watermelons...

MAGA. Let him stay on his side of the wall.

 

[Dale Smith]

Trump is truly an incompetent buffoon.

Yes, Isaac, "competent" in your tiny, skewed world is to have an open border where O'Mexico can continue to ignore their problems and poor infrastructure because they can export them.....you really are stupid.

 

[Zander]

There were over $26 Billion in remittances sent to Mexico in 2017. The wall cost is estimated at $12 Billion.

A 10% tax on remittances to Mexico will pay for the wall in 5 short years. A 5% tax pays for it in 10 years. If we include Central America it is even faster......

They're going to pay. One way or another.

Neither leaders will back down from their stance on Mexico paying for Trump’s border wall.

The president of Mexico halted upcoming plans to visit the White House after a reportedly tense phone conversation with President Donald Trump, according to the Washington Post.

U.S. and Mexican officials told the Post that President Enrique Peña Nieto called off his visit to Washington D.C. after Trump refused his request to publicly affirm Mexico’s ongoing stance that the country will not pay for a border wall between the two countries during a phone call on Tuesday.

President Peña Nieto has long maintained that Mexico will not pay for Trump’s plans to fortify the border with a wall, as the country finds even the gesture offensive.

The officials who were familiar with the call spoke to the newspaper on condition of anonymity because the 50-minute call was confidential.

A White House official confirmed with CNN that Peña Nieto’s meeting with Trump was tentatively scheduled for March, but was placed on hold after their conversation.

A three-sentence White House readout of the phone call did not specifically mention Trump’s multibillion-dollar border wall, but it did note that the president “underscored his commitment to expanding cooperation between the United States and Mexico on security, trade, and immigration.”

According to the Washington Post, Peña Nieto and Trump spent a “considerable portion” of the phone call discussing the border wall.

A Mexican official told the paper that Trump “lost his temper” during Tuesday’s conversation. U.S. officials said Trump was frustrated and exasperated because he thought Peña Nieto was being unreasonable for expecting him to walk back plans for his controversial campaign promise, according to the Post.

Pickin' watermelons...

Hard on the back...

I used to have about a half a dozen pair of leather gloves with thumbs on both side of the glove... Wear a hole in one side just flip the glove over and go back to husking...

The president of Mexico halted upcoming plans to visit the White House after a reportedly tense phone conversation with President Donald Trump,

Ummm ... good?

The money we save on his housing, transportation, and security for the trip could well be put towards building the wall.

Besides, he might not want to go back to Mexico after he's seen all the great jobs we have to offer here.

 

[Political Junky]

If only we had a president as well spoken as Peña Nieto.

[Mac1958]

Well, maybe he can spend the extra time working on making Mexico less of a place from which Mexicans desperately want to escape. The people deserve much, much better.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

One less mexican. Great news.

Trump no hablo Espanol y Trump no comprendo Espanol. Mexicans told me that I speak Spanish with a hillbilly accent but what do Mexicans know?
