Its either an appeal to Hispanic voters, OR knowing he will never be Pres, he's busy making some private & profitable business deals with Mexico's President for post-election, all on the Republican Partys dime while it lasts.

He is a master of exploitation for personal gain.
It's all about The Art of the Deal. And he is doing just that.
