From nbc news World Headquarters in new york, this is nbc nightly news with lester holt. Good evening, ive Savannah Guthrie, in for lester. Mexico has played a prominent role for donald trump from fiery accusations about criminals and rapists pouring over the border to promises to build a wall and force mexico pay for it. Fast forward to today when trump in a city at the invitation of that countrys president , standing side by side in a photoop moment his advisors hoped would make trump come across president ial. Gone was the confrontational rhetoric, no talk of a bill for the wall. Did trump make the most of an opportunity or miss one . We begin with Miguel Almaguer in mexico city. Mexico city, Donald Trumps meeting with president nieto was cord dahl. Cordial. We had a very constructive substantive exchange of ideas. Reporter after extending an invitation to the nominee, mexicos president seemed at times defiant, a point by point rebuttal. He said mexico deser deserved the respe ec echoed. Spectacular hard working people. Reporter an about face when trump kicked off his campaign 14 month ago by vilifying mexico. They are not our friend, believe me, theyre bringing drugs, theyre bringing crime and theyre rapirapists. Reporter easing his stance on trade specifically nafta, trump also didnt talk about who pay noers wall on the border. We didnt discuss who paid for it. Support owners the trail. Whos going to pay for the wall . Mexico. Reporter when mexican officials had taken on trump previously, he fired back. That wall gets 10 feet higher. The embattled president nieto had likened the republican nominees rhetoric to that of a dictator like Adolph Hitler or muss so lin mu so and former president fox saying he wouldnt pay for the wall. Im not going to pay for that wall. Reporter and the embassy that often provides briefing and support to candidates for on for trips, this time staying on the sidelines. Trumps team didnt reach out. Trumps visit to mexico a gamble. He didnt know what the president of mexico would say. Given the position hes in, he needs to gamble here or there. Is tonight up for debate. With donald trump hoping to appear president ial, tonight, mexicos president is under fire for even inviting the president ial candidate to this country. Trump says he shares five goals with mexico, including keeping wealth in this hemisphere and dismantling the drug cart cartels. Miguel almaguer starting us off. Thank you. A big day and night for trump set to deliver his signature speech on immti people wondering where exactly he stands on some issues, even some who support him. Hallie jackson is learning new details about trumps high stakes speech. Reporter donald trump, heading back across the border as his mexico city meeting overshadows the biggest policy speech of his campaign so far on immigration. What to expect . Clarity presumably what he will do with the 11 million undocumented immigrants still to round up and deport every last living immigrant starting on day one. You will hear how he plans to address the 11 million. Reporter trump said hes not soft softening up. I had people say its hardening. Reporter even some of his advisors argue for a more moderate stance. Wholesale importation is a log gist call impossibility. Reporter he wont support in contrast to Hillary Clinton. He tells abc her hard tonight and call for better enforcement and oversatisfying. We will build the wall. Reporter building the wall on the southern border has been trumps most consistent pledge. On this side of the border, his attacks on mexico and rhetoric on immigration have turned off many hispanic voters with democrats working to turn them out in november. That includes voters like maria, a years that i vote, this is the top. I feel like we are under attack by donald trump. Donald trump needs to be worried not only about his paltry numbers with latino voters, also how his position really affects independent and moderate republicans. Those are voters who are also turned off by his hard line stance on immigration. Reporter while trump doesnt have much support from the hispanic community, a new poll just out sh closing in on Hillary Clintons lead. Tonight, in phoenix, a key test, how and if he can reconcile his more diplomatic tone in mexico with the more fiery one we see from him on the campaign trail. Savannah. Hallie jackson, thank you. Lots to chew on. Moderator of meet the press, chuck todd. I think you agree this is a pretty high risk move, did it pay off . As political theater goes, trump and we will learn how it went after the speech in totality. It does matter, what is his position and what does he plan to do with the 11 or 15 million undocumented folks here. Does he soften his stance and is his tone truly different how he wants to tackle immigration. That we learn tonight. I have to say the bar is extremely low for trump when it comes to staying on message and things like that. I thought he exceeded that bar and looked the thought i have what was the mexican president thinking . I think hes in more hot water tonight than anybody. Chuck, thank you very much. With many polls sh showing a tightening race now, Hillary Clinton was on the trail as well today making her pitch to veterans even as she continues to grapple with sinking favorability ratings. Heres nbcs andrea mitchell. Reporter tonight, Hillary Clinton atta attacking donald trump for his dropin visit to mexico. It certainly takes more than trying to insinuations by dropping in on our neighbors for a few hours. Reporter as trump was grabbing the spotlight south of the border, clinton trying to win over veterans at home, arguing to the American Legion trump is wrong about the military. I completely reject any, including my opponent, who calls the american military, and i quote, a disaster. I like what she had to say and i think she might just have my vote in november. Im a man. I just dont believe i can trust hillary. She lies too much. Reporter her pitch to veterans coming as clintons favorability is dropping showing more americans view her unfavorably than ever before. Among women favorability down nine points. Madam secretary, just a few minutes. How are you doing, andrea . When do you think you might go to mexico, madam secretary .
