Trump to visit Mexico, meet with Pena Nieto ahead of immigration speech
Fox News ^ | 8-31-2016 | Fox News

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump plans to detour from the campaign trail on Wednesday to visit Mexico and meet with President Enrique Pena Nieto at his invitation, a surprise trip scheduled just hours before Trump delivers an immigration policy speech in Arizona.

Nieto and Trump each confirmed late Tuesday that Trump accepted the invitation and the two would meet in private Wednesday.

Campaign manager Kellyanne Conway told Fox News the two would discuss illegal immigration, trade and drugs. Trump running mate Mike Pence also said they would begin a conversation about a proposed border wall, along with other issues.

Well it looks like Nieto believes Trump is going to win. Desperation is in the air.

rather diplomatic move to meet with them for a face to face concerning his plans - that’s leadership

Trump was brilliant in immediately accepting the invitation. Now, if hillary decides to go, it looks like she's following Trump's lead. And if she doesn't decide to go, it's because she doesn't care about US relations with Mexico.

Same thing in Louisiana.....Trump gets out front by acting and comes across as decisive. He puts hillary in a lose-lose situation.

“My Spidey sense is telling me that this is a TRAP...”

Oh please.

Some people here watch way too many TV shows. Or too much infowars.

Some of you aren’t going to like this but.......There’s no way Trump is going to do all the things he says or you hope. Sending millions back AND bringing all those jobs back here would completely collapse Mexico. Ain’t gonna happen and it would be inhumane because it would affect millions of innocent Mexican citizens.

Build the wall and stop the flow.
Bring some of the jobs back.
Start sending the worst of them back.
Enforce laws on the books.
When they get caught with DUI etc. Deport.

No mass deportations. We’d have constant, violent protesting and he’d get nothing done due to news cycle.

Bring some jobs back from other countries, without collapsing them. Trump’s not an evil man. He’s not going to be able to instantly change things like China’s currency manipulation. Red China would start shooting their citizens en masse when they protest the sudden collapse. Again, violent human rights protests here, nothing gets done.

Art of the Deal; Ask for 110,% get 75%
Still 25 times better than any other gop candidate would have done and 10,000 times better than HRC would do.

We win Gracy.

So no crying flip flop and no going all #neverTrump

Personally, I think the US is going to have to help Mexico straighten itself out, help defeat the cartels. I’ve always thought, why the hell are we nation building in the M.E. when our direct neighbor to the South is so screwed up.

Build bridges AND walls.

Trump will be delivering the blueprints for The Wall and a bill for constructing it.

“Not just your’s brother. This is a YUGE mistake Mr. Trump.”

Chill. One of the two who will be meeting has long record of getting the deals that he wants.

My take is the that Trump will tell this guy very politely that there will be a “wall tax” on every Chevrolet, Ford,Dodge, Toyota vehicle coming across that border”.

He will go on to say that “you might as well get used to that because it is going to happen”.

Since the cost of that wall amortized over 20 years is pennies compared to the trade involved, little pup Mexico will have no choice but bend over.

“On the other hand he could get him to agree to pay for the wall”

"Senor Nieto, will that be cash or credit?"

At this point, Trump doesn't have to concentrate on driving down the negatives on Hillary. It's worthwhile to pound on it now and then, but for the most part, the message is there.

Now, I think Trump's first priority should be showing what kind of a president he would be; going to Louisiana was a big part of that, and now the Mexico trip is along those same lines.

Unlike Obama, he won't travel abroad and apologize. He will go to other countries to make the case for America, and try to find areas of common interests. That's what presidents should do, and that's what Trump will do.

The media can't hide this story, and though it will pain them to show Trump in a positive light, this will go a long way to help the average voter see Trump in a new light. They are beginning to see that the media has been lying to them for a while.

And I infer that any support you personally have for Donald would vanish.??
Thus you imply that if Donald changed his mind after a couple of months that could only be horrible? No matter the substance or scope of the change? Adults set out to solve problems, sometimes see a route to failure and then change the rout to eliminate that failure. A two year old charges ahead and wrecks the vehicle. It is hard to see from your comments that you ever supported anyone but Ms. Hillary.

Trump visits Mexico and Hillary is hiding out in the Hamptons. LOL!

A look to remember! Clinton recycles last year’s outfit as she seeks advice on how to debate Trump during Hamptons fundraiser

Hillary Clinton is in the Hamptons attending three-day fundraising blitz
She appeared in a lime green tunic with matching pants and Nike sneakers
Clinton was seen wearing the same outfit during vacation in August 2015
At Monday’s event, Clinton acknowledged Trump’s unpredictability and said: ‘I am running against someone who will say or do anything’
Tickets for the events on Sunday to Tuesday range from $1k to $100k

Hillary Clinton is known for many things - among them is her penchant for monochrome pantsuits.

It appears Clinton has taken her matchy-matchy look off-duty, rocking a lime green ensemble in the Hamptons a year after she wore the same outfit during her annual vacation in 2015.

While Clinton was enjoying some time off last year, she’s hoping to drum up cash among New York’s elite this time around with a three-day fundraising extravaganza, Politico reported.

FACEBOOK is full today in Mexico, of supposedly intelligent, rational, logical people who came unscrewed, and pop off the wall in HORROR that Trump would come to Mexico. This IS big news in Mexico. The tide will be turned, as people come face to face with their own bigotry and dual system of justice. Kind of like the World Series LIVE at this moment. Wires are burning up, Twitter is melting down.... Stay Tuned.
