This melt is hilarious considering you all know what trump said is true about these countries.
Other than you are sensitive about anything trump does, can you explain why I should care that he used mean words about crappy countries? And also how does it affect your life to the point of actually physically getting upset about something as trivial as this?

Thanks in advance.

If they were not shite holes, their residents would not leave and want to come here.

The offensive thing actually isn’t really the word “shithole.” It’s more the idea being born in a poor country makes one less worthy, less human. That’s offensive.

Here's George Bush with Haitians after their earthquake in 2010. This evokes the attitude we should hope for in our President about people from poor countries.

Not honestly, no.

Some places are shite holes. That's just the way things are.

I'm not saying they are right, but I'm pretty sure they are melting because Trump said he wants less people from Africa and Hati ( blacks) and more from countries like Norway ( white). The statement reaffirms what they already believe about him, that he's racist.

Word doesn’t mean anything anymore when you are offended about everything. You cant disagree with that either.

I don't doubt that the younger Bush seems genuine and sincere. When I met him he chewed me out. That's ok I didn't mind. President Trump is head and shoulders above young Bush in every way. I'll take the straight talk over the PC bullshite every day of the week.

Yeah I wonder why people are upset that the POTUS made a blatantly racist statement.

Nothing. Y'all are caught up in the word he used and ignoring the context in which he used it. Youre also showing an ignorance on why the places he mentioned are 'shitholes'.

You should be offended by this too.

Revelator is right. When you combine this with his comments that he wants Norwegians but not Haitians, Salvadorans, Nigerians, how else can you interpret this but that he'd prefer a racial purification of our country?

I suspect that's actually a strong part of the appeal of the comments to many in his base.

You can interpret that he doesn't want people from shite hole countries flooding the US since that's what he said.

Or you can take his words even more out of context to be offended by them.

Some countries are real shite holes.

There is no PC way to say that. Doesn't make it not true.

Because our President revealed he is using overtly racist ideas when deciding immigration reform.

You should care because the source is a guy who spoke to another guy who was briefed on the meeting.

Fake news.

I’m seeing the angle now.
I heard about the comments and thought well yeah he’s right that those countries are awful places and then moved on with my evening. Now I see that trump derangers needed to spin it to mean he’s racist and he meant it to be a racist statement.

When you are looking to be offended, you can find Offense in everything. That’s what the democrats have been sadly been brought to at this point.
