Trump warns Mexico over guns drawn on US troops: ‘Better not happen again!

[Francee89]

LOL or what? He’ll throw another big boy tantrum, threaten to close the border and then not do it? He’ll shut down the government and get nothing again? He’ll send pouty tweets? I bet they’re shaking in their boots.

You'd you rather he have them all lined up and shot?

What on earth would make that an option for a simple misunderstanding?

This is just Donald trying to sound tough. The adults around him will pay no mind.

Looks like Mexico wants this. I say go for it. They will lose badly

You're willing to sacrifice American lives because the other side will lose in the end?

No but you want us to be victims and we will not!

Why are you lying?

The Mexican soldiers confronted them on what they thought was Mexico territory. Trump is an idiot. He's created a hostile relationship between the US and Mexico, so what in the f**k did he expect as a response when Mexican soldiers confronted US soldiers on Mexico soil? Kisses?

They ‘thought’ it was Mexican territory?

Seems to me he wants bloodshed on the border.

Umm Mexico is the one pointing guns at our guys. I would say they are to blame.

So let’s get this straight... America has a right to defend itself by throwing gas at men, women and children into Mexican territory, but Mexican soldiers pulling out guns when confronted by U.S guards, that’s a no-no?
Seriously, this guy wants to start a war. What a bully.

Well they were on our territory not the other way around. How is that hard to understand?

What I get from these comments and what I see in these comments are extreme liberals who would rather blame our men on our land and take Mexico’s side because they have such deep hatred for president Trump. What has our country come to!

Seems like there’s a lot of assumptions, allegations and mistrust on both sides. Yep, nothing going to improve until both sides start communicating better.

This doesn’t seem like an issue that needs sides or to be made into a dramatic issue. It was a simple misunderstanding that the border guards on both sides resolved quickly. Trump, in his typical Twitter fashion, blew it way out of proportion totally unnecessarily.

Well I would take it pretty seriously to have a gun pointed at me. I think you’re down playing it. Just because they resolved the problem doesn’t mean it isn’t a big deal and didn’t have potential for disaster. IMO none of our men should be at the border unarmed. I think it’s a no brainer that they should always be armed.
