MEXICO CITY (AP) - Mexico's president was savaged on social media and in political circles following his joint press conference Wednesday with Donald Trump, with many seeing a national humiliation in his welcoming of a man who has derided migrants as rapists and criminals.

President Enrique Pena Nieto said Mexicans felt "aggrieved" and had disagreements with the Republican presidential candidate, but he never did what people here wanted most: demand that Trump apologize. Adding to the anger, in the press conference Trump repeated his promise to build a border wall between the countries.

"Trump can leave at ease now. The humiliation was complete," Televisa news anchor Carlos Loret de Mola tweeted, after lamenting that Trump would dare to reiterate his intention to build a wall "in our face and home."

LOL! A couple of Hillary Associated Press SuperPAC @sslampreys weigh in...

It's like that picture of the Iraqi woman with the purple finger - "I voted!".

This pair has a brown ring around their mouths: "I sucked Hillary's @ss!".

Right now the Witch must be filling her catheter and colostomy bags to overflowing .

Dozens of Big Media "journolists" are vying for the "privilege" of personally cleaning her bodily waste bags orally.

Immigration activists say a large fraction of migrant women are raped on their way to the US

Bill Clinton approves of this message - but only if the girls are 13 or under...

AP finds the voices it wants to express its thoughts.


That is exactly what they do and it drives me nuts.

Doesn’t really matter. Trump’s plane was hardly wheels up when Pena Nieto was tweeting that he made it clear Mexico wouldn’t be paying for the wall. Trump was hardly into his speech last night before he said Mexico would pay every penny of the cost of the wall. There is no common ground between the two, and any idea that we could work together on the wall or on NAFTA is just wrong.

It used to be that Mexicans just illegally crossed our borders...now they think they can tell us what we can and can't do on our border. Last I heard, Trump's wall was going up in our side.

That is just it, Trump has never derided migrants, just the illegals,. Liberals and their community organizing lies are responsible for this!

Yes, Mexico will pay for the wall. Once we build it and start sending illegals back, we will no longer have to pay billions and billions of dollars to support them. Anybody who doesn’t see the logic in this is either being deliberately obtuse or they are knuckleheads.

I wouldn't look at US universities as just a Canadian thing. It is basically everybody with the Canadian numbers being a little more visible because they are so close.

The United States is the only country in the world that I know of which takes the view that everybody has to go to college in addition to offering scores of lightweight majors such as XXX Grievance Studies to ensure that any lightweight can graduate. We have the worst of the worst as well as the best of the best.

Canadian Universities welcome American students as long as they meet their standards. It is just that not that many go for various reasons ranging from higher tuition to tighter standards. Even in the long socialized countries of Scandanavia where national universities offer nominal to nearly free tuition to their own nationals, foreigners are welcome. But you won't be able to major in Crapology like our universities offer. The government wants their investment back, either from a national who will be earning big and paying big taxes or a foreigner who will be paying their fair share.

It is only natural that Canadians or any other foreigner would flock to U.S. Universities with our much broader choices and even special programs which, in some cases, favor foreigners over our own nationals because "diversity" is worshiped here like nowhere else.

So are you saying that the billions saved by deporting all the illegals will be used to build the wall? If so then how is that Mexico paying for it?

Is he mad enough to take back all the ilegals living in the U.S. ILLEGALLY?
That would definitely show Trump who is in charge!

Because all those deported will become Mexico’s problem and not ours. We would save billions and that would more than pay for the wall.
