They shared a phone call and Trump lied about it. She called him on it and he got pissed off.
He wanted to use the call for propaganda purposes.
He wanted to say that the immigration problem was solved by a single phone call from him.
He wanted his supporters to believe he had already checked it off his "to do" list.
It didn't matter to him if it was true or not, so long as his cult believed it.
Unfortunately for him, Mexico's new President told the truth about him and American trade policy over the years.
Now, he has threatened to invade her country.

Isn't Trump's phone call interfering with foreign policy?
Oh, I forgot. Trump can violate any law he wants.

(8,241 posts)American culture is poisonous. Black Friday encapsulates the disease. People are encouraged to value personal consumption over any responsibility as citizens. Trump's entire campaign was about stoking anger and resentment. Whatever reason many people offered for their vote in an exit poll was often just a selection from menu options provided in advance by the kneepad media. Gas and groceries, I'm talking to you. Maybe people were too embarrassed to say the endless harping on trans athlete micro-stories and obvious fables of sex change surgeries in schools and prisons made them uncomfortable.
Donald Trump is a vector of an unnamed social disorder marked by love of luxury, indifference to the avoidable poverty and suffering of others, and a readiness to adopt imaginary victimhood as a rationalization for cruelty. This is our dominant culture now. It is easier to go along with what others do without apparent concern than to stand on principles of decency and invite isolation or attacks.

He has no idea of the economical and political problems in Honduras, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, etc. Costa Rica seems to be doing fine.
The MAN is an IDIOT!
