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."

“They’ll get over it.”
Not, I hope, as Latin Americans are wont to do, by revolution followed by dictatorship.
Good. The South-of-the-border snowflakes need to stop being so damn sensitive.
Mr. Trump looked more like a Real President today than any other since Ronald Reagan. The visuals of the press conference were stunning, with him in total control. Right now the Witch must be filling her catheter and colostomy bags to overflowing .
It's the news media. They aren't happy if things are on an even keel. They thrive on controversy.
The “immigrants” Trump is talking about ARE rapists, murderers and criminals. Trump isn’t “deriding” anybody. If the Mexes are so pissed off, why don’t they take all of their “immigrants” back?
yeah they do....But in a much more civilized manner...
I live near a border town....Trust me on this...
People do whats in their own best interest....
Yeah, Mexico is the victim s/c.
“Canadians don’t come down here and mooch off our system.”
Actually they do.
Immigration activists say a large fraction of migrant women are raped on their way to the US, so even that detail confirms that a disproportionate number of the smugglers ARE criminals and rapists.
The way the meeting with Trump is portrayed, Trump went down to Mexico and caused such a stir that the Mexico is rocked by revolution. Everywhere Trump goes the streets are on fire, and people are rioting. I see.
That’s a good point — I wonder how many people have realized that’s the reality.
“President Enrique Pena Nieto said Mexicans felt “aggrieved””
Hey Mexicans, how’s it feel?
The press thinks this is Mexico, not America.
Trump was AWESOME!!!!
I’m sure the dims aren’t real comfortable with it either
How would they like them apples?
True...
Compared to Mexicans though it’s like a 100:1 ratio or something.
