VICTORY: Mexico Just Admitted Trump's Won, Makes Humiliating Move to Save Face

Since he announced his run for the White House, billionaire businessman Donald Trump has made the southern border one of his key issues. He's made no apologies for his remarks about drug dealers and rapists making their way to America via the porous border. His promise to build a wall has also been wildly popular among his supporters.

Like many involved American politics, Mexico has finally come to terms with the idea that Trump and his ideas are not going away just yet. Those concepts have taken their toll on Mexico and its image, and it has decided it's time to something about it.

To help restore their marred reputation, the Mexican government announced it was sending diplomat Carlos Sada to Washington in an effort revamp the country's tarnished image, according to Reuters. Sada admitted that Mexico has neglected its image and planned to address the problems through lobbying efforts and with PR and media campaigns.

"We need to do a more thorough job so that people understand what (Mexico) contributes," Sada said Tuesday after being sworn in at Mexico’s legislature.

Gabriela Cuevas, an opposition lawmaker, said it was vital for Mexico to improve its image but that wasn't enough to change the "hateful trend that Trump and other xenophobes before him have stirred up."

"They don't understand the extent of the damage Trump has done," she said.

There's no doubt that Mexico would like to blame Trump for its damaged reputation, but at the end of the day, it has been forced to admit that much of what Trump has said was right — an undoubtedly humiliating admission.

Andres Rozental, a former Mexican deputy foreign minister, admitted Mexico was at least partly responsible for how the country is perceived.

"To change the image, you have to change the reality," he said. "Unfortunately, Mexico's internal reality at this point in time has a lot of negatives."

So negative, in fact, that leaders saw the need to bring in a diplomat to help reverse the damage already done — another crushing concession that Trump was right.

I know friends who sent their 18-year-old son to live with his aunt in Mexico and attend the university to study Spanish in a formal program. The evil auntie was given $200 per month to cover room & board and just last week started an argument with this young man (who is known to be congenial with EVERYONE) and kicked him out of the house IN MEXICO. Fortunately, he had made friends in school and went to live with a young English teacher and will stay with him until finishing the course.

The entire family is embarrassed because of her actions, but know she is like that. Americans have NO clue has to what they are dealing with when they deal with Mexicans, not even a tiny idea. If this woman will do that to her own nephew, imagine what she will do (and has done) to someone she doesn't know. Upon understanding Mexican culture, one begins to understand why certain things happened to the men who fought against Mexico in the Texas-Mexico and U.S.-Mexico conflicts (i.e. Fannin and his men, Mier Expedition, etc.).

If something drastic is not done almost immediately about immigration - deportations, forced assimilation and assumption of OUR values, not theirs, our culture is doomed. We are reaching the breaking point.

Pffft.

You’ve got to be kidding me.

Take that money and pay for the Mexicans that are here illegally, using our schools, hospitals and welfare systems.

Then pay for the new wall.

< This is a one-sided romance. The US loves Mexico and can’t do enough for them but Mexico hates our guts.

And one noticeable trend has been happening with illegal labor lately. They are upping their prices dramatically as they've realized they won't be deported anytime soon and have become accustomed to living in the U.S. without fear or the IRS investigating them for not paying taxes. I have heard this from farmers and people in the construction industry all over the mp. Moreover they are killing American's jobs by bidding lower on jobs because they can due to the fact that they don't lay taxes and get cheap labor from all the cousin Juan's that they help bring across the birder illegally to work here. That and by also stealing building materials off of job sites. I've had several buddies that have had to close down their construction companies because the can't compete with the non-tax paying Mexican crews.

Still not buying Absolut.
Plenty of other vodkas available (may I recommend “1911” vodka, made from apples in my NY hometown).

Sounds like there’s an MBA involved.

Instead of fixing the problem, throw “Marketing” at it.

Mexicans are starting to charge higher labir rates everywhere as they've become emboldened by a president who wants them here to systemically destroy our nation by overwhelming of economic resources. They know they're not going to be deported because he is, in fact, covertly importing them by the millions using Mexican tour buses, giving each new import a crisp $100 bill to board a bus and infiltrate the U.S. and move them farther north where they are not in larger numbers like in the South so much. He is using tax dollars to do it and it's already been proven by people armed with video cameras all over the nation filming them, interviews with their bus drivers and people who have witnessed them loading into the buses right across the border in Mexico.

I predict thy won't be so welcomed by big business much longer as they start getting charged higher and higher rates. The honeymoon is about to be over.

[”To change the image, you have to change the reality,”]

That’s nothing new, the GOPe and 0’s outlaw regime have been doing that for years.

"...Those concepts have taken their toll on Mexico and its image..."

Ultimately all they have is their machismo and false bravado. Deep down they know they suck compared to their civilized neighbor to the north.

That goes for the lowest, darkest, most decrepit Quechua-speaking indio in his hovel as well as the wealthy white elites behind their gates and walls.

All they have is bluster; otherwise, there is no there there.

Our Elites love Mexicans, because they can pay them far less and Mexicans don't complain nearly as much.

So actually the conflict is between Americans and the Elites.

Mexicans are merely the weapon that is being used to destroy us. Left to our own devices we could neuter that threat in about 2 weeks, but the Elites do not want that.

Thus, the manufactured conflict.
