The Mexican government had no immediate reaction to a tweet by U.S. President Donald Trump that appeared aimed at canceling a planned Jan. 31 meeting with Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto.
Trump tweeted Thursday that “If Mexico is unwilling to pay for the badly needed wall, then it would be better to cancel the upcoming meeting” in Washington D.C.
Trump said Wednesday he would start building a U.S.-Mexico border wall and vowed to make Mexico pay for it. Mexico opposes the wall and has repeatedly said it won’t pay for it.
Mexican officials said there was no immediate reaction to Trump’s tweet. Officials said Wednesday Mexico was “considering” canceling.
Former foreign relations secretary Jorge Castaneda told local media “Pena Nieto has no other choice but to say ‘I’m not going.'”

Your name says it all!
Trump is doing what no president has done before. He gets things done for the benefit of his team. In this case America USB the team and he is its leader
Mexico is a joke, and so are all the libs
# 3 – How can a crazy person have an opinion?
I feel bad for you that you cannot accept the fact that finally after long years, someone smart, gutsy and a real patriot is in charge. Look – you can move to Mexico if you feel uncomfortable or unsafe here
