I have been off the grid for the last 4 hours. Tell me what I need to know about the Trump speech.

Just getting re-connected now.

Yes, I know all about his faux diplomacy in Mexico. Got that part.

How was the Phoenix speech? No snark please.

He puts on a kinder-gentler, scripted, face for his lying news conference in Mexico City.

Then he reverts to the first face he showed us in 2015 (and worse) when he comes back across the border.

Trump married at least one immigrant. Then he said no immigrants then reversed himself then reversed the reversal. Today he fled the country (low poll numbers?) and then came back in the same day. (Would a wall have prevented this? I mean, can't you just fly over it?)

I am also deeply confused about why he went to Mexico in the first place. Mexicans don't vote in US elections. Is he going to Canada next?

I was unplugged today too (Trump Fatigue Syndrome) and I've given up on trying to unwind whatever this was supposed to be (other than #trumpdrama).
