The meeting with President Enrique Pena Nieto, who earlier this year compared the billionaire candidate to Hitler, comes hours before Trump is set to deliver a highly anticipated immigration speech. It’s a defining issue for Trump, but one on which he has appeared to waiver. Trump took to Twitter on Tuesday night to say he looks “very much forward” to meeting with Pena Nieto. The Mexican leader’s office confirmed the meeting with its own tweet, saying the two men would meet privately. In a March interview, Pena Nieto said that “there is no scenario” under which Mexico would do so and compared Trump’s language to that of dictators Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini.
