CURRENT President Of Mexico Slams Donald Trump, Compares Candidate To Hitler

MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto compared the language of Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump to that of dictators Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini in an interview published Monday, and said it has hurt U.S.-Mexico relations.
Asked about Trump, Pena Nieto complained to the Excelsior newspaper about "these strident expressions that seek to propose very simple solutions" and said that sort of language has led to "very fateful scenes in the history of humanity"
"That's the way Mussolini arrived and the way Hitler arrived," Pena Nieto said.
Pena Nieto until now had avoided direct comments on Trump, who has pledged to build a wall along the two countries' borders. Trump also has said Mexican immigrants bring crime and drugs to the U.S. and are "rapists."
But as the New York businessman has built a lead in the GOP primary, current and former Mexican officials have begun to publicly express alarm. Former Presidents Vicente Fox and Felipe Calderon also have alluded to Hitler in describing Trump.
In the interview with Excelsior, Pena Nieto said he would worth with whoever eventually wins this year's U.S. presidential election and to maintain a climate "of mutual respect and joint agreements."
In another interview published Monday, with the newspaper El Universal, the president said he would be "absolutely respectful" of the U.S. political process, but said, "It appears to me that (Trump's comments) hurt the relationship we have sought with the United States."

A year ago, who in their right mind ever would have thought we were on the brink of having a major US presidential candidate being compared to Hitler by foreign leaders ?
All it proves is that most all powerful government type people dislike him.
Intensely.
And, it is why he is getting so much support. It is a reflection on how many citizens are not liking big government types.
Most bureaucrats hate him with a passion akin to genocidal maniac. But that being said, we have yet to see if the propaganda being throw at him actually sticks.
Most people who think they have power sufficient to sway public opinion hate him. He challenges their long held beliefs that the people are simply lemmings that follow the chosen path.
This is actually what this battle is over, those that like it spelled out for them and that are willing to follow someone that spells it out, or those that want something else.
(I'm sure he has some lemmings following him also)
We will see.
Accusing him of being crazy is saying that all his supporters are crazy also, are all the people that support him hitlerian genocidal maniacs also?
Because that is what your calling them.
For some at least a third of the American electorate are genocidal maniacs.
That says a lot more about the accusers than it does about his supporters.
If there are any foreign leaders who have said anything nice about Trump, outside of Vladimir Putin, I haven't seen any of it. Maybe the guy from North Korea, that is about Trump's speed. 95% of foreign leaders seem to be anti-Trump. That is accumulated wisdom and a kind of a poll of it's own sort.
How does President Nieto treat central american immigrants who try to stay in Mexico?
Statements like this from the Mexican President only help Trump.
Do I care what Mexico thinks? Not in this lifetime! I lived there and it is disgraceful what these wonderful people have to endure. Corruption and more corruption!
