Former Mexican President: Trump 'Trying to Save Face' With Voters

Alisyn Camerota’s face said it all when Vicente Fox said Mexico won’t pay for the “f****** wall”

This week, it was revealed that Donald Trump had a tense phone call with Mexican president Enrique Peña Nieto back in January over - what else? - who would pay for his stupid wall.

Fox has also said the same thing on Twitter many times.

Well, you can use my words - we'll never pay for that f*cking wall.
"For that whole wall". Camerota asked Fox, "Do you think the president of Mexico should have been more forceful in saying it's never going to happen?" Why should Mexico pay for the wall?

Former Mexican President Vicente Fox might be the only politician not named Maxine Waters who warms my heart. She later apologized on behalf of CNN for airing the "salty language". "We don't need a wall", Fox stated on the live cable broadcast just moments ago. "Perhaps I should have taken that offer for the five-second delay", she said. "If Trump wants to build a wall, he has to go to Congress and he has to tell the truth to USA taxpayers that they're going to pay for that".

Fox also blasted Trump for asking Pena Nieto to refrain from public criticism of the White House over his campaign promise to make Mexico foot the bill for the wall. He apparently wants that so bad, Fox nonchalantly dropped the F-Bomb live on CNN while sending the message. "He's not looking after America and the great Americans, it's that he's trying to save face".

Since that time, Fox has seemingly become a social media star of his own with 789,000 followers, as he continues to lash out at President Trump, both in Spanish and English on at least a weekly basis.
