SEE what CARLSEN SAID

I want to see Trump using the [Berlin] Wall 'gainst Magnus OTB...
I want to see Donald Trump using [Dutch] Stone wall on Magnus Carlsen!
It's better than Berlin Wall because it's made of stone and has not collapsed a short time after being built!
@Neverness I believe Mexican Defence is not sound and if Carlsen tries it against Trump, Trump will easily win. I have seen Donald Trump's @donaldtrump account on Lichess and he is a very good chess player.
The more we talk about mexicans and Trump, the angrier I get. Some of us find that kind of humour offensive.
#28 I am sorry that my opponent played the most common moves. This can be a two Knights variation in Nimzovich Defence.

Do you have any games where Carlsen played Black Knight Tango as white or black? I know he has very good results with Dutch Defence Stone Wall variation (it's his favorite opening as black, he usually wins with it). He famously beat Anand with it!

Berlin Defence is also played a lot but only as a drawing weapon for black at least in Ruy Lopez. Anish Giri always uses it and draws.

I don't know how he does in Bishop's opening Berlin Defense.

Erm... I tried, quickly, to find a game w/ Carlsen in the Tango but didn't.
