Trump Strikes a WINNING Deal With Mexico, U.S. Media Scrambles to Fake the Story
DB Daily Update ^ | David Blackmon

Posted on 06/08/2019 5:27:04 AM PDT by EyesOfTX

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends)

This is how the #fakenews works, New York Times style. – President Trump won his standoff with Mexican President AMLO last night, securing an agreement in which the failed state off of the U.S. Southern border made a series of concessions designed to slow the free flow of illegal immigrants from various nations in Central and South America. But you would never know that from reading the piece the New York Times posted about the deal, unless you read all the way down to the 1,500 word story’s 9th paragraph, where the fake writers of the piece begrudgingly began to detail the Mexican concessions.

From reading only the headline – “Trump Calls Off Plan to Impose Tariffs on Mexico” – and the first 8 paragraphs, which is more than the average reader takes in, you were left to believe that the President simply surrendered in his negotiations with Mexican officials, threw up his hands and gave up on imposing any tariffs due to pressure from Democrats, RINOs and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Because that, friends, is how your fake news media works.

For the New York Times, its all the news that’s fit to fake. Meanwhile, over at CNN, fake host Don Lemon hosted a panel of leftwing nitwits who all joined Lemon in claiming that they knew “this is exactly where we would be on Friday night?” Yeah, sure you did. You’ve been 100% wrong about everything else that’s taken place over the last four years, but this you got right. Uh-huh.

As part of the agreement reached late Friday, Mexico agrees to deploy an additional 6,000 national guard troops to its southern border to ramp up efforts to stop the caravans before they enter the country, to expand the program that allows the U.S. to send asylum seekers back to Mexico where they will remain while their case is being adjudicated, to implement improvements in cross-border communications with U.S. officials, and to continue to work to arrest and prosecute those who are organizing the massive caravans, a process that has already resulted in several arrests.

The joint statement released Friday night by the State Department also contemplates the negotiation of further measures:

“Both parties also agree that, in the event the measures adopted do not have the expected results, they will take further actions. Therefore, the United States and Mexico will continue their discussions on the terms of additional understandings to address irregular migrant flows and asylum issues, to be completed and announced within 90 days, if necessary.”

So, there’s the actual news as it really happened. You wouldn’t get it from the New York Times, and no one at CNN knew it was where we would end up. Matter of fact, pretty much everyone at CNN spent the past 10 days laughing at the President and predicting his threats to implement tariffs were hollow and would produce no concessions from Mexico at all.

But they, these are the same “experts” who spent 18 months telling us that “Robert Mueller has the goods on Trump” and that Trump would be indicted any day now. So, just par for the course down there in Atlanta.

In the end, the United States got everything it wanted, and only Mexico made concessions. To normal people, that’s called “WINNING.” I’ll never get tired of it.

That is all.

President Trump has to strong-arm the Mexicans to help the USA control our border. If this works we obviously no not need a congress of week-kneed, lying, backstabbing RINOs and demoncrats any longer, do we?

Trump should have stuck with it. It would have been best to implement the tariff for a few days then sign the deal. Let the Mexicans get a taste of it and let them absolutely know that Trump is not just blustering. Of course this strategy would be predicated on Trump’s knowledge that the tariff would stand even with the hack judicial injunctions sure to be filed.

Oh boy this is going to be good! Now Donald and the Mexicans can take credit for protecting the US border. Congress is looking pretty impotent, and POTUS is still able to get $hit done!

Forest Trump is getting bad advice. He needs to go with his gut.

We have our own “Deep State” fake news media folks here - they constantly piss on anything President Trump does and most never donate to help pay the FR bills....with trolls like them, who needs the fake news media?

So far it’s all just talk. The Mexican government is a lot like muslimes; they’ll tell you anything you want to hear, with no intention of ever following through. Fortunately, Trump has the cojones to impose the tariffs if our amigos don’t keep their promises.

The universal Democrat talking point from the brain dead is,”Trump created a fire storm and then put it out so it’s just more duplicity.” They clearly all get their canned speech from the same source.

I agree with you completely!

There has been an upsurge of self righteous whiners who think if they were running things all would be well, and no matter what Trump does in moving ahead despite them and the others opposing they will never be happy

Simple answer, they are paid to be here and disrupt and create FUD
Fear
Uncertainty
Doubt

I consider them as they are, Wolves in sheeps clothing sowing discord and garbage and in many cases acting like blog whores pimping sites seeking hits

The accounting for just a few days of tariff probably would cost the US more than the 5%.

Oh gosh. My neighbors who voted for trump already supposedly noticed some items have increased their prices and they blame tariffs. I said they are not implemented yet. They said but what about China. I said it doesn’t happen overnight. Even trump supporters can get sucked in by the media manipulations.

All this will do is infuriate the Democrats and cause them to remove up the impeachment rhetoric
