MEXICO CITY: Mexican
Finance Minister Luis Videgaray has stepped down, his ministry said on Wednesday, pushing out of the government the closest ally of President Enrique Pena Nieto, who has been under pressure since Donald Trump's controversial visit last week.
A ministry spokeswoman said Videgaray would step down not long after the government said Pena Nieto would hold a news conference later on Wednesday morning.
Pena Nieto was pilloried for hosting Trump, the Republican U.S. presidential candidate, at short notice last Wednesday. Senior diplomats said Videgaray had been instrumental arranging the visit.
Videgaray ran Pena Nieto's presidential election campaign, and was widely seen as the minister closest to the president.
The resignation comes shortly before the government presents a 2017 budget with cuts needed to restore confidence.
Videgaray will not take another public post, the spokeswoman said. Two people familiar with the matter said that Videgaray will be replaced by Jose Antonio Meade, a former finance minister. The spokeswoman could not confirm this.

Donald Trump is a very dangerous and harmful fool.
All his allies, friends and foes - will not trust Donald Trump.
US will be in a very terrible predicament in foreign relations and foreign affairs - if Donald Trump become a President of US.

If anybody has been watching the news lately ISIS is pretty much on the run. Obama's strategy seems to be working as regional forces are pushing back ISIS fighters forcing them to flee Iraq towards Syria. But the coalition is a prime example of why Trump's ideas of blundering around the Middle East are not just unworkable but dangerous.
ISIS is on the run thanks to an unlikely combination of enemies. Kurds, Turks, Iraqi militia, etc. are battling ISIS on various fronts and then battle each other during lulls. Syria has a dozen or more warring factions and both Russia and Iran are major players. There is no good side for the US to defend or ally with and no possible strategy to defeat this player or that player without either helping the bad guys or angering the erstwhile good guys. I'm not sure Trump understands this anymore than he understands US nuclear policy.
I've noticed Trump has a pattern. He says he'll solve problems in a day, a week or a month. In Chicago he said he talked to a "high ranking" police officer who said he could solve Chicago's crime problem in a week. Trump never identified this miracle man, evidently never asked him what his solution was but he said he passed on the guy's name to the mayor so the mayor could "hire" him. The statement as most of Trump's off script remarks was rambling and confusing. Was the guy a cop or not cop? If he was a cop why did he say the mayor should "hire" him? And most importantly every high-ranking officer on the force denied ever talking to Trump. His military strategy falls in the same category of delusion or lies. I talked to so and so and he said we could solve this in a week. No identification, no explanation of the miracle plan just more BS from the gold-plated throne of Trump.

Didn't Trump recently say that he knew more about ISIS than our top generals? Why does he need them to come up with a plan when he already knows everything? Oh, that's right! He doesn't know anything, and the words coming out of his mouth don't actually have to be "true" or "factual" or even coherent.
