Donald Trump landed in Mexico City after 1:00 p.m. on Wednesday afternoon, on his way to a bilateral meeting with Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto – his first sit-down with a foreign leader since he launched his presidential campaign last year.
Only a handful of protesters turned up downtown near the presidential palace in advance of the historic meeting. And only a small contingent of foreign reporters and photographers were there to see it.
Trump's campaign left the traveling press corps in Phoenix, where they arrived late Tuesday night in advance of a promised landmark speech Wednesday evening on the hot-button topic of immigration.
Even a press pool reporter from DailyMail.com, designated to travel with the candidate for the trip, was not granted access to accompany the campaign.
The press charter plane was available, according to a person with knowledge of the aircraft's operations, but the campaign decided not to clear it for flight.
