Donald Trump is considering jetting to Mexico City on Wednesday for a meeting with Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto, just hours before he delivers a high-stakes speech in Arizona to clarify his views on immigration policy, according to people in the United States and Mexico familiar with the discussions.
The possibility, which was hatched in recent days by Trump and his campaign advisers, comes after Trump has wavered for weeks on whether he would continue to hold his hard-line positions on the central and incendiary issue of his campaign, in particular his call to deport an estimated 11 million immigrants who are living in the United States illegally.
The people informed of Trumps plans spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity surrounding the matter. They said late Tuesday that talks between the Trump campaign and Mexican officials were ongoing, with Trump interested in going but logistics and security concerns still being sorted out.
Peña Nieto has extended an invitation for the businessman to visit him in Mexico to talk about various political and economic issues, the people said. Trump, sensing an opportunity, decided over the weekend to accept the invitation and push for a visit this week.

Has Hillary been to Louisiana yet, or is she still in bed with Huma?
I hope it is not true, and this is the Washington Post.
7D Chess! Go Trump!
Will be interesting to hear what the Mexican President says in Spanish. Obama/Hillary have already probably gotten to him. This seems like a trap.
that is what is really going on. he is ALMOST inevitable.
the neck and neck polls here in the USA are for public consumption.
however, Mexico is a legitimate safety concern... that gives pause.
Without the billion dollar a day security and us cap over head... I would be concerned that Trump does not have nearly enough infrastructure to protect him from kidnap and ransom or murder plots.
yes. I know that speaks pretty poorly of our friendly neighbor to the south, but...
Mexico really is that corrupt.
We are close behind them... or significantly ahead of them... I cannot decide, when it comes to the current regime’s corruption levels.
Oh! Its on like Donkey Kong!
So any deal is automatically going to be bad for America? I don’t think so.
Sooner or later the MSM is going to figure out that Trump’s campaign has been a performance-based interview. He’s successfully dealing with Mexico, the loony Democrats, girly-man RINOs and the biased MSM in about 14 months.
Amazing.
Lots of people barked about the million already here. They don’t get the basics. When in a boat being flooded you have to stop the flood. Stop the flood or die bailing it out. The borders must be secured first, priority #1.
Then go after the worst of the worst. We know who they are and where they sleep. Get um out. Plenty of time to worry about the others already here.
Trump should only meet with him in Texas. Not safe for him to go to Mexico.
One more way he is already the president.
That's probably what Kennedy should have done.☺
Trump is going down there to pick up the first payment for the wall.
He’ll let the corrupt Mexican politicos sell ad space - like on outfield walls in baseball.
Eeees a coookboook.
My suggestion, upthread, was to meet at the Chamizal.
Would make Dem heads explode.
Anderson Cooper just started stuttering trying to report this as breaking news.
Go Trump!
Any article like this from the WaPo has to be taken with suspicion.
As Spock said, only Nixon could go to China...
Crusade carried out by who? Hillary? Obama? A bunch of disenfranchised voters?
LOL
