- 8 years ago
Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Kaine labeled Republican nominee Donald Trump's visit to Mexico a "diplomatic embarrassment."
While speaking on Good Morning America Thursday, Kaine told hosts ofTrump's meeting with Mexico's president Enrique Pena Nieto "He’s been talking for a year about we’re going to build a wall and Mexico is going to pay for it and then he goes and he sits downand goes eyeball to eyeball with the president of Mexico and, what, he forgets suddenly to bring it up or he’s too afraid to bring it up or he chokes in the meeting."
After his meeting withPena Nieto, Trump held a press conference in Phoenix, Arizona, where he gave a fiery speech on immigration.
"Anyone who has entered the United States illegally is subject to deportation.
There will be no amnesty,” Trump told the crowd.
In contrast,Kaine and Hillary Clinton's plan "includes a path for hardworking people to earn the ability to stay here as citizens over many years and also border security."
