about mexico, here is president trump announcing the cancellation of his meeting with the mexican president in philadelphia today. the president of mexico and myself have agreed to cancel our planned meeting scheduled for next week. unless mexico is going to treat the united states fairly, with respect, such a meeting would be fruitless and i want to go a different route. we have no choice. so david, was this sort of a mutual agreement, a mutual cancellation, or do you think that the mexican president pulled the plug? i think that the mexican president pulled the plug, and he did that because donald trump frankly put him in a corner. he kept in a tweet sort of pushing mexico saying you know you have to pay for the wall. i think nieto has to worry about his own political audience, mexicans were outraged, angry at him for months, if we talk this way to china, chinese are not going to stand for china backing down. this is very different from a business deal where you re blu ....
