First, the AP reported that according to a transcript of a phone call between the presidents of the US and Mexico, Trump threatening to send US troops to Mexico if it was unable to stop the “bad hombres down there.” Then, in a separate report from the Washington Post, Trump labeled a refugee swap deal with Australia “dumb” on Thursday after a Washington Post report of an acrimonious telephone call with Australia’s prime minister, replete with alleged “yelling” and which Trump hung up after just 25 minutes, that has threatened a rift in ties between the two ally nations.
The Post reported that Trump described the resettlement plan as “the worst deal ever” and accused Australia of trying to export the “next Boston bombers”.
