So here's the other leaked transcript that nobody wants to talk about. It shows the dealmaker in chief practically begging Mexican president Peña Nieto to lie about paying for the border wall to cover his big orange ass by trying to convince him that this is a big problem for both of them.
on the wall, you and I both have a political problem. My people stand up and say, “Mexico will pay for the wall” and your people probably say something in a similar but slightly different language. But the fact is we are both in a little bit of a political bind because I have to have Mexico pay for the wall – I have to. I have been talking about it for a two year period
Because you and I are both at a point now where we are both saying we are not to pay for the wall. From a political standpoint, that is what we will say. We cannot say that anymore because if you are going to say that Mexico is not going to pay for the wall, then I do not want to meet with you guys anymore because I cannot live with that. I am willing to say that we will work it out, but that means it will come out in the wash and that is okay. But you cannot say anymore that the United States is going to pay for the wall. I am just going to say that we are working it out. Believe it or not, this is the least important thing that we are talking about, but politically this might be the most important talk about. But in terms of dollars – or pesos – it is the least important thing. I know how to build very inexpensively, so it will be much lower than these numbers I am being presented with, and it will be a better wall and it will look nice. And it will do the job.
But you cannot say that to the press. The press is going to go with that and I cannot live with that. You cannot say that to the press because I cannot negotiate under those circumstances.
Wow. This is a rare glimpse at the greatest dealmaker in history at work here. Did he really think he could talk the Mexican president into getting on board with this? I'm no donald trump, but isn't the point of a deal that both sides get something of value out of it? He's basically asking Peña Nieto to commit political suicide in his own country to cover for the lies he has been telling, and he thought Peña Nieto would go for it?
He's so fucking stupid.
Amazingly, the Mexican president sees right through the masterfully crafted pitch and puts president rocket surgeon firmly in his place -
You have a very big mark on our back, Mr. President, regarding who pays for the wall. This is what I suggest, Mr. President – let us stop talking about the wall. I have recognized the right of any government to protect its borders as it deems necessary and convenient. But my position has been and will continue to be very firm saying that Mexico cannot pay for that wall.
The phone call ends with drumpf having a little taste of the bottom of Peña Nieto's boots -
Peña Nieto - You are very kind, Mr. President. And really, the only thing I am interested in for both of our nations to do well – for your government, for you, and for us to truly have a relationship with friendship and a very constructive relationship, Mr. Trump.
MAGATron - Your words are so beautiful. Those are beautiful words and I do not think I can speak that beautifully, okay?
