Clinton: Trump 'choked' with Mexican president on border wall

Hillary Clinton said Donald Trump "choked" when he met with Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto when discussing a wall between the United States' southern border and Mexico.

Clinton, invoking one of Trump's favorite insults, accused him of failing to live up to his promises to make Mexico build the wall. Trump met with the Mexican president in late August.


"When it comes to the wall that Donald talks about building. He went to Mexico. Had a meeting with the Mexican president. He didn't even raise it. He choked," Clinton said. "And then got into a Twitter war because the Mexican president said we're not paying for that wall."

Trump responded said that Clinton actually supported building a wall similar to the one Trump wants Mexico to erect.

"Hillary Clinton wanted the wall. Hillary Clinton fought for the wall in 2006 or thereabouts. Now, she never gets anything done so naturally the wall wasn't built. But Hillary Clinton wanted the wall," Trump said.

Clinton then shot back that Trump has used "undocumented workers" to build his properties.
