I'm in the no camp. If it's true, it's taken completely out of context. The Australian PM story sounds more believable, if not exaggerated and put in the worst light possible.

No way Trump threatened to invade Mexico. Nor threaten to wipe out the cartels unsolicited.

I think it's real and really embarrassing. Before he hung up on the PM he had to brag about his huuuge electoral win. These are our allies and he's acting like a cunt.

There's enough legit news outlets reporting it now to make me say it was real.

I think it's true, the context is debatable. I highly doubt he said it assertively as if he was threatening to invade Mexico. Probably lightly joking, and chuckled during it, Mexican Prez probably got the humor. Not something the President should be saying, but again you never know the nature of the discussion and the tone. Remember, Reagan joked "I have signed an executive order, to invade Russia. The bombing begins in 5 minutes." at a mic check one time.

The way they spoke publicly to Iran though concerns me. "Too soon".

This is why we need Rex Tillerson involved and glad he is. The Sec of State should help build these relationships.
