WTF? Are they even paying attention?
The negotiation hasn’t even started yet.
Whatever
What a tool. What would he know about negotiations or diplomacy? The discussions with Mexico just started, for Pete’s sake.
What are they going to negotiate. I think Trump was clear there will be a wall. The negotiation will be in how Mexico pays for it. The “professionals” in DC think negotiating means to give up your core principles and accept the other side.
Establishing himself as the alpha dog first.
Like when Reagan said, “No deal is better than a bad deal!”
So how do you feel?
Is Trump a great negotiator or a bad one like this fake news writer is saying?
This dude obviously doesn’t know that it ain’t over ‘til it’s over. Good night nurse! The only thing that happened this week was Trump’s opening salvo, just to sight in his guns. And Nieto dove for cover. Trump will smoke him out, though.
Trump didn’t roll over like your average Republican would have at the slightest sign of resistance and that’s making liberal heads explode.
We can’t spare this man. He fights.
It looked like a great negotiating tactic to me.
Mexico will be at the NAFTA table considerably weakened and their US corporate supporters silent.
Nothing to negotiate when it comes to issuing executive orders that countermand Obama’s lawlessness and revert back to the law as written.
Exactly right! Negotiation is NOT a synonym for surrender!
Apparently this ‘producer of propaganda’ hasn’t gotten out of the parents basement for a while...
Has anyone living to today seen a President in one week do the things that President Trump has done?

Now ‘producers of propaganda’ lets see what lies your can make of these TRUTHS!!!
“Make Mexico pay for the wall” is itself a negotiation tactic. It is designed to wring further concessions from Mexico.
when you have already decided who lost before the negotiating ever began, it’s not shocking.
Big dog....With Mexico? Yellow lab vs Chihuahua?
I would see your Grant reference and raise with a request to send to the GOP leadership whatever Trump is drinking. But Trump doesn’t drink, so alas, that one won’t work.
Billionaire real estate investor.
Yeah, he is a really bad negotiator.
