And African countries that would make Trump’s alleged comment incorrect?


I can’t think of one. I have never heard anyone say: “ Welp summer is coming up, i was thinking of taking the family down to Haiti for a little R and R.”


Africa: i guess you could say that if you are into killing big game it would be the place to go. Aside from that it’s a continent of unlimited potential in terms of resources and man power that for some reason just can’t seem to get its pervebial shite together. The Countries are run by tribes and war lords that steal and hurt their own citizens. How is this not the beer definition of a SHITHOLE?

ETA: with regard to Africa, perhaps Trump is wrong. As Lebron and Spike Lee have said, it’s full of Kings and Queens. So Trump is wrong, a place full of Kings and Queens can’t be a shithole. My apologies to Africa.

This is one of those times when literally 100% of people on the planet knows a statement is true, but some are just mad about HOW it was said.

I started a resort thread on the Travel Board (immediately and predictably called a racist ) and then went to Trip Advisor. An excerpt:

quote:

The hotel is lovely and the staff very good. It is strange though having such awful poverty just outside the tall gates and high walls patrolled by security guards.

Almost felt offensive me staying there when there is such a lot of hardship a few feet away.

Even its neighbor on Hispaniola, the Dominican Republic, doesn't want anything to do with it and, while they haven't put up a wall yet, make it hard for Haitians to enter and stay.

The truth hurts, especially when you're a thin-skinned SJW regressive.

It was said in a private fricking meeting. If he held a press conference and said that then I might be Have a wtf appearance. He is having a meeting with his colleagues in governance and he spoke candidly and truthfully.

I agree.

I'm just amused at the folks whining about something that we all KNOW they actually agree with.

Well, 50 years ago major league baseballs were made in Haiti. Does that count?
