A lot of the things that seem to be coming out now [in 2016] could have been written just maybe three years ago by the Gang of Eight or by Jeb Bush.
Jose Diaz-BalartThere is a lot of people just shaking their heads and wondering, what was really behind this meeting [of Donald Trump and Enrique Pena] as far as from the president of Mexico.
Jose Diaz-BalartI don`t think Enrique Pena Nieto expected [visit]. I don`t think anybody expected it to be so quick, the response [like Donald Trump].
Jose Diaz-BalartDonald Trump says, we talked about the wall, but we didn`t talk about who was going to pay for it, not in this meeting. President Pena Nieto doesn`t say or do anything.
Jose Diaz-BalartI think that, when Enrique Pena Nieto invited Hillary Clinton and invited Donald Trump to meet with him here in Mexico City, it was a thought that maybe, in the future, whoever won the presidency, during that transition period, or right after, would decide to come and visit Mexico.
Jose Diaz-BalartIf you closed your eyes during that [Donald Trump] conference and you didn`t pay attention to who was saying those words, it could have been Jeb Bush saying those words last year, Jeb Bush. It could have been Marco Rubio saying those words last year during the primaries, because that`s the position of, well, those two Floridians, you know, no pathway to citizenship according to Jeb Bush, pathway to citizenship in the long term, according to Marco Rubio, but talking about the need to brush up on the border.
