Fox News confirmed the reports.
The link you posted is from yesterday and it only quotes the Washington Post from yesterday.

Do you even bother to read the links you post?

U.S. Sen. Tim Scott said he talked to fellow South Carolina Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham about hearing President Donald Trump's "shithole countries" comment and Graham confirmed to him the president said it. Graham, Scott said, told him the reported comments are “basically accurate.” “If that comment is accurate, the comment is incredibly disappointing,” Scott also told The Post and Courier on Friday morning.

The first fricking sentence says Fox News confirmed the report.
Who gives a shite who he did or didn't quote? Fox is the only reliable news source (according to Trump).

That's all that exist.

Almost like Democrats are manufacturing this so they can pretend to have the justification to shut down the government for illegal immigration next week.

So for those keeping track of those who were in Trump mtg:
Durbin: Trump said "shithole" countries
Graham: publicly silent, but confirmed comments to Tim Scott
McCarthy: Silent
Goodlatte: Silent
Diaz-Balart: Skirts comments in stmt
Cotton: Does not recall
Perdue: Does not recall

Except the fact that Fox News confirmed the report and has spent the morning spinning the comment rather than denying it.

The fricking WH statement didn't even deny it.

The lengths some of y'all will go to defend DT and to believe everything he says is pretty pathetic.

So you STILL don't have a link where someone who was in the meeting is quoted as saying he heard Trump say it.

Yet you go postal with faux outrage and start making personal attacks whenever that's pointed out to you.
