Clinton: Trump ‘choked’ in Mexico on border wall

Hillary Clinton told Donald Trump Wednesday night that he “choked” by not mentioning his proposed border wall between the United States and Mexico during a meeting with Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto in August.

“When it comes to the wall that Donald talks about building — he went to Mexico. He had a meeting with the Mexican president, didn’t even raise it. He choked,” Clinton said. “And then got into a Twitter war because the Mexican president said, ‘We’re not paying for that wall.’

“I think we are both a nation of immigrants and we are a nation of laws and that we can act accordingly, and that’s why I’m introducing comprehensive immigration reform within the first 100 days with a path to citizenship,” Clinton added.

Trump responded by saying that he had a “very good meeting” with Pena, adding that the U.S. “will be doing very much better with Mexico on trade deals.”
