Report: In a 'humiliating' and 'threatening' tone, Trump lambasted Mexico's president during phone call
During a phone call with Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto on Friday, President Donald Trump reportedly disparaged Mexico and threatened to use military force against the drug trade, according to Washington, DC-based journalist Dolia Estevez.
In an interview with Mexican news outlet Aristegui Noticias, Estevez, who cited sources on both sides of the call, said "it was a very offensive conversation where Trump humiliated Peña Nieto."
Estevez said that while both the White House and the Mexican president released information about the call, both sides characterized it as a "friendly" conversation and neither revealed what was said.
Estevez said she "obtained confidential information" corroborating the content of the discussion.
"I don't need the Mexicans, I don't need Mexico," Trump reportedly told the Mexican president. "We are going to build the wall and you all are going to pay for it, like it or not."
