Trump lies again.


MEXICO CITY - Donald Trump told Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto on Wednesday he would build a border wall to keep illegal migrants out if he wins the U.S. presidency, but Pena Nieto held fast to his position that Mexico would not pay for it.

Contradicting Trump’s assertion that the pair did not discuss who would pay for his proposed wall, Pena Nieto said after the departure of the Republican presidential candidate that he told him during their private meeting in Mexico City that his government would not pick up the bill.

“At the beginning of the conversation with Donald Trump I made it clear that Mexico will not pay for the wall,” Pena Nieto said in a tweet after not mentioning the issue during their joint news conference.

So now that Trump has spent 45 minutes in “Mexico is not our friend,” he’s totally sympatico with our neighbors to the south. Where sympatico means he didn’t just dodge the question of who would pay for his great, great wall—he flat out lied about it. Because in his first chance to play deal-maker with a world leader, he got shot down.

Best quote on Trump's Mexico visit:
"He went in barking like a pit bull and came out sounding like a chihauhua!"
