Been there. Yes, they are s*holes.
The point being made is that the governments of these countries AND their people need to clean them up.
As long as everyone can run to the west, nothing will ever change in those countries where no one wants to stay.
Perfectly alright with me if he said it. Throw in the islamist countries too.
“...So, here we are. Who do we believe: the President of the United States or a sitting Democratic senator — and loads of media outlets (including CNN) that have confirmed that Trump used the word “shithole” to describe certain countries that were sending immigrants to the US?...”
The President of the United States...
That was easy...
Believe CNN or Trump.
This is a puzzle.
Not.
Nothing to deny.
Haiti is a shithole. As are most countries in Africa. Ask anyone who lives there and why they want to move to the USA.
Being in favor of productive immigrants from Asia and Europe who would not immediately be on the public dole is not a bad thing. Most countries have requirements of self-sufficiency before immigration. Heck, Mexico has extensive ones.
Only the USA and Europe (and Israel, although we told everyone to pound sand) are required to commit self-destruction of their countries by the importation of less-than-desirable immigrants.
A member of the most corrupt enterprise in the world lecturing about truthfulness.
This is all about creating a smoke screen to hide from the base that Trump killed their amnesty plan yesterday.
Durbin started it to avoid being asked why he didn’t get amnesty through like they’ve all promised.
That’s all this is.
This guy looks like a douchebag. I can’t wait for the fake news awards. CNN is really working for theirs.
Why do you post columns from him?
“$hit hole” is a place not a race. Cnn is a $hit hole.
I did wonder if Trump seemed slow to deny it because CNN and other trash would just add “liar” to their false accusations.
Trumpspeak: Sh*thole
On the other hand nobody in the MSM can deny that those places are sh****les. It may be rude to call a drunk a drunk, but it’s not inaccurate. The President is doing the world a favor by speaking the harsh truth.
Chrissie, even those in airports watching tv hate you. Shut up.
Sorry CNN, if there is no video, it did not happen.
Denied.
Bottom line is Trump doesn’t want millions of immigrants from shithole countries, rats would prefer he didn’t say so. I think we all know where the majority of Americans stand on this. Dreamers deal negotiations now dead and will only be revived when rats come, hat in hand, ready to deal.
Trump amazes me every day. All of the wailing and crying by dims only reinforces that they’re talking about over running the country with unskilled indigents that American taxpayers will have to support. You would think the rats and MSM stooges could remember why Trump was elected.
Confirmed based on what ... that single Rat senator? The author is a s***-for-brains.
This headline should read “Why no one should believe #fakenews CNN”....
It’s not whether he said it or not. It’s whether or not people think the overall message the media keeps repeating is true.
I’d guess a lot of voters from the start felt this was true about those countries. A lot of others never thought about it but now think “Trump’s right. Why do we want immigrants from those countries?”.
If his goal was to get people to think about who the Ds want to let into the country, the media is helping a lot. It wouldn’t be the first time Trump started a controversy to get the media to go 24/7 with the message he wanted people to hear. Simply saying “we want to allow in the best people” (as he’s said many times) would not have achieved wall-to-wall coverage getting people to think about who immigrants are and which would benefit the US.
