Donald Trump lauded his relationship with Mexican leader Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador and boasted that the two countries bond is better than ever in a last-minute effort to win over Hispanic voters before next weeks election.
Trump, who won office in 2016 on a promise to block immigration from Mexico and is currently trailing in the polls behind Democratic opponent Joe Biden, wrote that his re-election would benefit Mexicans. Mexico profits when the economy of the United States is strong and when the United States is respected in the world, he said in a written interview published Friday in Mexican newspaper El Universal.
The strategy of courting Latino voters demonstrated in the interview marks a shift from Trumps game plans of the past. Rather than deriding illegal immigrants in order to stir up a ballot boost, with just days to go, Trump is now trying to snag the same voters he had turned off before by using real estate in the Mexican newspaper to try to trim Bidens advantage with Hispanic voters.
The billionaire struck up a surprisingly close relationship with leftist AMLO, a veteran campaigner who earned his political stripes promoting indigenous rights in his rural home state of Tabasco. In the interview, Trump talked up his work on the border with Lopez Obrador and called their relationship incredible.
