Mexico's female president-elect to Trump

Dear Madame Presidente, you'll have to excuse our national embarrassment. He was recently shot in the head and has learned nothing from it but continues to be divisive and lie. We wish your administration all the success in the world. And perhaps you can tell Netanyahu to tone down his mass murdering? Thank you. - Mexican Buddhists

Mexican Jewish President-elect Claudia Sheinbaum rebuked U.S. nominee Donny Johnny Trump after he appeared to mock Marcelo Ebrard, a high-ranking official from the current government who is set to be her economy minister when she takes office this year.

• Like father, like son: Trump is classy, but his father not so much: Claims about racist Fred Trunf are absolutely disturbing

Trump's offensive statements took place on Saturday during a rally in Grand Rapids, Michigan....The statements prompted a response from President-elect Sheinbaum, who took to X (Twitter) to defend Mr. Ebrard, whom she bested in the party's primaries.

He, he has, Como se dice? Marital problems. She hates him but loves money

Gus, can you answer Trump?

"I regret former President Trump's rude language and certainly disagree with his opinion of Marcelo Ebrard. To me, he is one of the best public servants in Mexico, and he will be a great Secretary of Economy of our country, which no one should forget is free and sovereign," she declared.

Ebrard, on his end, thanked Sheinbaum and said he will "defend Mexico's interests with dignity and strength."

The rift follows another episode concerning Trump and the Mexican government, as current Pres. López Obrador had said the day before that he was going to send a letter to his "friend" Trump as a result of his stance on immigration.

I'm better than Hey Zeus, everyone tells me.

"I think he is not being properly informed about the migratory issue and also about the importance of maintaining economic integration among the U.S., Mexico, and Canada," he said.

"When it comes to migration, I will prove to him that migrants are not smuggling drugs into the U.S. That is a vile lie. They go to work honorably. That country was built and became a superpower thanks to migrants around the world."
