(5,500 posts)His whole government is trying spin just how strong and courageous he was facing up to Trump - but Mexicans aren't buying it. Trump is trying and spin the meeting as a chest thumping macho beat down of the Mexican President but anyone who watched his performance at the presser following the meeting knows what a moist softened mess Trump was. His combination of prepared remarks and ludicrous ad libs - involving using the same adjective or adverb several times in a row to show just how much he meant it - was an embarrassment for him, for the republican party, and for America. The Mexicans got to see a real stooge who might just become Americas' President.
What an embarrassment for both men and both countries.
