President Donald Trump said Friday that there was no need for a summit with the Presidents of Mexico, Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador because "they understand" the implications of his recent move to cut stabilizing aid to the Central American countries.
Trump's dismissal of a summit comes in light of a recent uptick in Mexico's apprehensions of migrants at its southern border, shared with Central America. It remains unclear whether the increase was spurred by Trump's threat to shut down the US-Mexico border if Mexico didn't stop migrants from illegally crossing the US border or simply from greater immigration traffic.

“Absolutely right! they want a meeting to see if the stupid Americans will give us more money if we behave ourselves”
But nothing would change in their behavior. Fortunately Trump knows that and is basically saying: “change your behavior now, then we’ll see.”
“How have places like NY or Chicago dealt with “protection” rackets?”
New York had Rudy Giuliani. No one else like him, since. :) But, you’ll note that things went back to shiite when he was no longer a prosecutor/Mayor. :(
Chicago will always be a mess!
“Too bad he has failed to achieve anything on borders and immigration.”
I’ll just leave this here. LOL!
“Trump is listening to the border sheriff’s and the border patrol rank and file folks and is following their advice.”
We have quite a few Freepers here that ARE on The Front Lines. They need to make a bigger stink and on a daily basis!
We Yankees have got your back, as we’ve been dealing with the scum and crime and gang miscreants that come up from Chicago or down from the Twin Cities. And now that we have a Dem governor, things will get worse again because, well, we have to be NICE and not hurt any Gang Banger or Somali import’s FEEEEEELINGS! *SPIT*
Trust me, it ain’t your everyday hard-working FARMERS committing crimes and raping and killing people!
Someone should put that on hour and a half loop .
CNN is back to "experts say". I remember clearly watching CNN in the summer of 2016 when Robby Mook was on CNN and repeated the "experts say" words several times claiming that Russia was interfering with our election. It sounded very suspicious when I heard it. I had the same questions as you. Who are these experts? Of course the CNN critter did not ask Mook.
He hears enough American leftard whining as it is. Why hear more whining through a translator.
This thinking is one of the prime reasons Democrats and their RINO allies have ratcheted up the assault on our country with the mass flow of fake asylum seekers.
It’s a win, win for them. Import undocumented Democrats en mass, and tie the Presidents hands with judicial fiat until the cases can make their way to the SC. At the same time, it makes the President look inept on immigration.
Yeah,but they will have lot of guacamole dip.
I agree with Trump. They didn’t want to help. Now, Trump did what he needed to do and now they want something out of us.
“. How have places like NY or Chicago dealt with “protection” rackets?”
They ENCOURAGE them!
“Trump is the first President in my life time that is actually listening to the people on the border.”
He is. Unfortunately he is standing alone. Ive never seen a leader with such courage!
Excellent post!
Is that the Italians? Can we trade them for leftists?
That might work down the road. Mexico is not likely to sign any such thing. The President of Mexico has to keep the cartels happy or he will not be president long, may even have a short life. He is going to have to keep Trump happy too for the economy of Mexico; but will not do it in public statements or signing a treaty about border security. The cartels essentially have control of Mexico, more so than their government.
Too bad you are so completely ignorant of the situation.
Just Build the Damn Wall please.
There is no need for President Trump to do that. Homeland Security and other officials have been talking to officials in Central American and Mexico. President Trump has spoke to them too. This is just another bit of media nonsense.
Yes, a President can sign a Treaty, but to be lawful it needs Senate approval. I think Obambi's stuff was call "mutual agreements", not Treaties. But then, he did lots of EO's and other stuff to get around US Code and Constitution, not to mention ignoring court findings.
Of course, it was all ignored by the socialist MSM.
