I once saw a Haitian man take a shite in the middle of the street , then wiped his arse with the severed head of a chicken.


I guess we both have experiences.

It's not that it's incorrect or racist, but the President of the United States shouldn't be referring to other nations that way in any professional or official capacity. It's unbecoming of the office and reflects poorly on those he represents.

So you don't think calling some place a shithole is an insult?

To the rulers of that failed shithole country?? Yes. It is meant to insult those tyrannical assholes creating a shithole country for anyone but them. You don't think those a-hole deserve to be insulted??

In Haiti, the people overcome the struggle to survive, they are tougher than any of you idiots commenting on yesterdays bigotry on this board, not one of you lazy bitches could do what they do on a daily basis.

Notice all the outrage is not over whether it is a shithole or not, but rather about if it was mean to say.



No.

The outrage is that Trump thinks people from oppressed, war-torn, or economically ravaged countries ("shitholes") are less worthy. That they're tainted. That they're inferior to any random person you might select from "Norway."

Individuals in Haiti absolutely have to bust their arse to get by

Because

The nation is a shithole

I realize liberals want to pretend not to grasp the distinction but we all know they really do

You’ve provided the best argument FOR taking immigrants from shithole countries.

People in Haiti need to get out. People in Norway don’t need to get out.

Good luck with that angle. I think the horse left that barn a long time ago.

Maybe you're on to something. It's possible you don't understand the context. Answer this question. Do you think there are any countries on the planet that could be reasonably..in common private conversations.. that you think are "shitholes"?


The circumstances for the average Joe don't apply to the President. The President is on the job 24/7. He is supposed to be the leader of the free WORLD and should act accordingly privately or not.

When you are on the job 24/7 then all of your actions need to reflect that.

+1
The President is viewed as not only the leader of the US but also the free WORLD.

Worthy of what? What criteria are you evaluating?

Your problem is that you can’t even figure out what the problem is.

It’s not that he called them “shithole countries”, it’s that he doesn’t want people to come here from shithole countries.

There was a time when Ireland, Italy, Poland, Germany, etc... were considered shitholes, but thank god we let those people come here from those shithole countries.

If Trump wants to be around a bunch of Norwegians, maybe he should move to Norway. But then maybe Norwegians don’t want to let people from this shithole country into their country.

What does need have to do with it? So anyone, from any of the dozens of shithole countries should be allowed to just barge into this country? Why?
