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."

Uh oh, nothing like a little national butt hurt from yet another group of the perpetually offended. They need to familiarize themselves with three little words that will put the whole situation in context for them. WE DON’T CARE!

You know what is really humiliating? Paying taxes to support foreign nationals illegally living the the USA.

You ask a very good question.

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

True. But that isn't Mexico paying for the wall. That's us.

Well if I assumed your mortgage, I'd be paying for your house, would I not? Even though I didn't live there.
