Well, let's just say that President Trump and the president of Mexico have agreed to disagree. Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto reiterated on January 26 that Mexico would not pay for a border wall between it and the U.S., despite President-elect Donald Trump's claims to the contrary earlier in the day.
"It is evident that we have some differences with the new government of the United States, like the topic of the wall, that Mexico of course will not pay," Nieto said during a speech in front of foreign diplomats at the National Palace
At the start of the conversation with Donald Trump, I made it clear that Mexico will not pay for the wall," Peña Nieto tweeted after the two politicians met.
“In order to get the wall started, Mexico will pay for the wall. But it will be reimbursed. OK?" Trump told reporters Wednesday during his first press conference in over five months. “It will happen. Remember this, OK?”
Trump also slammed reports that he was planning to make American taxpayers pay for the wall. So what's next?
