Trump Changed Speech After Mexican President Tweet

September 2, 2016
By Taegan Goddard

“As Donald Trump arrived in Phoenix late Wednesday, fresh from a visit to Mexico City’s presidential palace, he had in his hands a big immigration speech that omitted the usual line that Mexico would have to pay for his proposed wall along the U.S. southern border,” the Wall Street Journal reports.

“Just after landing, though, Mr. Trump discovered that Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto had tweeted that he had told the Republican presidential nominee during their private meeting earlier that day that his country would refuse to pay for the wall.”

“So Mr. Trump hurriedly inserted a new sentence in his immigration speech, and he soon boomed out from the podium his traditional declaration that the wall would be paid for by Mexico — adding, ‘They don’t know it yet but they’re going to pay for the wall.'”

Said Trump: “I had no choice.”
