If I was President of Mexico, I would agree to meet with him.
Act as if the meeting was going to be cordial.
And then blast the orange-haired clown on camera with the entire media present and the entire world watching.
Awkward, but extremely effective.

I think doing such a thing would be too risky, since it would potentially engender sympathy in some parts of the media and make Trump look like the even-tempered statesman in the room.  Peña Nieto should and probably will treat Trump like any other potential president, even though he obviously doesn't deserve it.

I guess it's happening:

Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump  3m3 minutes ago
I have accepted the invitation of President Enrique Pena Nieto, of Mexico, and look very much forward to meeting him tomorrow.
Wow. Good move! But knowing Trump, he might mess things up Grin

Isn't the President of Mexico deeply unpopular and corrupt?

He is both.
Crooked lyin' Peña! Do Trump want to practise before the debates?

Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if the Trumpster sabotages the meeting intentionally to gain huge media attention and once again play the tough guy.

I can't imagine the President of Mexico injecting himself into this mess.

Then you must not be paying attention.  Enrique has already mentioned Trump in the same breath with Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini.  That was back in March, though, so I guess you could say he was only injecting himself into the primary election mess, not the general election mess.

I think it's probably a wise decision on Trump's part to meet with the Mexicans, and wiser still to make nice and apologize for any "unintended slight" or something like that.  On the other hand, he has to give a speech to some bloodthirsty vigilantes in Arizona tonight, and they're going to expect some red meat.  It'll take pure genius to talk out both sides and not look like he is doing that.

Mexican politicians follow one another in declaring their opposition to the visit. The latest is Ricardo Anaya, leader of PAN. "In which head did it get to invite Trump? We Mexicans have memory and dignity. Donald Trump is not welcome in Mexico".

Trump is late. The meeting was initially scheduled for 2:30 PM, but has already been moved to 3 PM.

How presidential of him! If he ever becomes president, I can't wait for him to ignore his advisors and do whatever the hell he wants!

Will Trump benefit from possible "riots" down there?

Frankly, as a PANista supporter, I do not mind this too much: the 2018 PRI candidate will have to do some unpleasant explaining, and I cannot say that I am very upset about that.

They said there was no way to get proper security logistics done in such a sort time.

He will have to move around by helicopter. No way he can be driven through the city.

Just like in Louisiana, Trump looks Presidential, while.. where in the World is Hillary Clinton again?

Let's get something straight ...... there is nothing trump can do, to make his permanent persona of a clown, look to be anything close to "presidential."
