Mexico should just build a wall to keep them out.
Is this fake news being passed on by Larry O’Donnell? Comments by anonymous sources are always reliable. :rolleyes: And there seems to be a lot of denials coming from Mexico. Did ol’ MSNBC Larry get the story wrong because he so desperately wanted the story to be right?
*WASHINGTON (AP) – President Donald Trump warned in a phone call with his Mexican counterpart that he was ready to send U.S. troops to stop “bad hombres down there” unless the Mexican military does more to control them - comments the White House described as “lighthearted.”
…The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the details publicly, described the conversation as “pleasant and constructive.”
…The Mexican government said “the negative statements” reported in the AP story “did not occur during” the call.
…Eduardo Sanchez, spokesman for Mexico’s presidential office, said the conversation was respectful, not hostile or humiliating. “It is absolutely false that the president of the United States threatened to send troops to Mexico,” Sanchez said in an interview with Radio Formula on Wednesday night.
The Mexican Foreign Relations Department had earlier told The AP: “The negative statements you refer to did not occur during said telephone call. On the contrary, the tone was constructive.”
…A person with access to the official transcript of the phone call provided only that portion of the conversation to the AP. The person was not authorized to provide the excerpt publicly and gave it on condition of anonymity.
…Mexico’s foreign relations department said the report was “based on absolute falsehoods.”*

Prizes? We ain’t got no prizes. We don’t need no prizes. I don’t have to show you any stinking prizes. 
I could award you Post of the Day, but some special snowflake might accuse me of trolling, bullying, and/or being naughty. Which they’re probably going to do anyway so here’s to you Mr Scholarship Winner.
