Republican Rep. Mia Love (Utah) on Thursday called for President Trump to apologize for those he "wantonly maligned" in his reported comments about immigrants from "shithole countries."

Love, who was born to Haitian parents, said the president's comments about those from Haiti and African countries were "unkind, divisive, elitist and fly in the face of our nation's values."

"My parents came from one of those countries, took an oath of allegiance to it, and took on the responsibilities of everything that being a citizen comes with," she said in a statement.

"The President must apologize to both the American people and the nations he so wantonly maligned," Love said.

What Trump said is worse than what the Clintons actually did to Haiti 🙄

The truth hurts. If they weren’t what he said, people wouldn’t be trying to come here from them.

Mia, I would prefer that people form shithole countries not come here or be here.

If you would like to be with people from shithole countries, then go there.

C’mon Mia. Back off on the criticism of frank, accurate, comments made behind closed doors.

Damn, Mia. I kind of wanted you to run for Hatch’s seat. Not anymore.

If Haiti is soooo great, why are people yearning to leave?!

Get a brain.

Ive been to Haiti in 1977...Trump’s description was more of a compliment. As for Mia Love, she’s been a disapointment as a conservative.

I would like Trump says to Ms. Love “Go back to your shithole country!”

If Haiti is so great, who is Mia Love living here instead of there?

Where does she - a supposedly Republican official - get off publicly denouncing the Republican president, with words that sound like Nancy Pelosi? Has anyone seen Mia Love and Nancy Pelosi in the same room at the same time? Are they the same person, in disguise?

When has MIA LOVE condemned dems and planned parenthood for exterminating those Shi#hole populations??? When has she taken on the abortion movement for genocide against Africa??? Or AL GORE,who stated last year that African nations had to have their fertility “managed”???? Come to think of it,I never heard the lib media go after Gore for his racist remark....
