    An excellent example of Media sneakily bashing. If it's "behind closed doors", as reported, HTH did AP get hold of it? Frank

    "President Donald Trump threatened in a phone call with his Mexican counterpart to send U.S. troops to stop "bad hombres down there" unless the Mexican military does more to control them, according to an excerpt of a transcript of the conversation obtained by The Associated Press.

    ...the excerpt offers a rare and striking look at how the new president is conducting diplomacy behind closed doors. Trump's remarks suggest he is using the same tough and blunt talk with world leaders that he used to rally crowds on the campaign trail.
    A White House spokesman did not respond to requests for comment. The Mexican government said the account was not accurate."

    The Mexican president has said that, although he used the term, it was understood between both of them that it was a joke, and he was not at all offended, and the Mexican president does not hesitate to criticize Trump.
