During a live interview on Wednesday with Republican vice presidential nominee and Indiana Governor Mike Pence on CNN's New Day, host Alisyn Camerota recalled that Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto once hyperbolically likened Donald Trump's anti-Mexico rhetoric to that of Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler, before she then essentially asked if the GOP presidential nominee would apologize to the Mexican president for provoking the negative reaction.

The CNN host did not wonder if Trump himself should receive an apology for being the subject of the over the top Nazi comparison. Addressing Governor Pence, Camerota posed: "President Pena Nieto has likened some of Donald Trump's rhetoric about Mexicans to Hitler and Mussolini. Do you expect that Mr. Trump will apologize to Mexico's president for some of the language that he's used?"

After Pence recalled that the Mexican president had "walked that language back," and talked up the likelihood that there would be a productive meeting the two men, Camerota pivoted to wondering if the GOP presidential candidate would "soften" on the issue of illegal immigration: "So do you think that the meeting today with the president of Mexico will somehow color the big immigration speech that Donald Trump is giving tonight? Do you think that he will soften his language or change his stance, say, on deportations?"
