Over 25% of Swaziland's population has AIDS and the average lifespan mirrors that of England in 1750. Rwanda is full of corpses and Sierra Leone has many people going about with limbs hacked off. Haiti, I don't even know where to start. It is impossible to argue against simple facts and statistics like this. They are awful places to live, full of malaria, yellow fever, schistosomiasis, cholera, typhoid, and other diseases that doctors here barely know how to treat because they never see them. The governments are corrupt and they periodically descend into civil war.

But the countries being shitholes does not mean that the people in them are. And that's what is implied in Trump's statement, and his immigration policies, and why it's so abhorrent. How many Americans today trace their roots back to Ireland? That would for sure have qualified as a shithole in those days, particularly during the Potato Famine. Nobody came to America for the last 400 years because they had a prosperous, lovely life--if that had been so, they would have stayed there. But people conveniently forget that, because they want to come and then pull up the ladder behind them and pretend it didn't happen.

Who decides how many can come? Capacity? The US government/colonies [on any level] did not provide help and this was a vast land. Now we have [some decaying] cities, infrastructure [aging but there], chronic generational poverty in a non-agrarian society, etc. And as Venezuela further deteriorates what will happen? The New World was a vast overflow valve for Old Worlds. Now we are not a New World.

Honestly Canada is sending reps to illegal and/or immigrant communities in the US telling them not to come. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/13/world/canada/quebec-immigrants-haitians.html?hp&action=click&pgtype=Homepage&clickSource=story-heading&module=second-column-region®ion=top-news&WT.nav=top-news

Oh stop being disingenuous.

The president didn't say "there are serious problems in Hait and some African countries." If he had no one would have disagreed with that. Instead, he dismissed them with a vulgarity, and implied their inhabitants are not the sort of people we want in the US. Here's a hint: that's an insult.

How many Americans go ape-shit if people say anything negative about this country. How many times do you hear "leave this country if you don't like it" or "love it or leave it" or "my country right or wrong" -- just because someone dares to critique something about the US that can be improved?

Except that Trump, of course, can imply America's not great rignt now (MAGA) and these same people go wild with applause.

Ethiopia is a shithole. In fact the late Emperor Haile Selassie's head was stuff in a toilet full of shit when the opposition killed him. The Haitians and Africans posting on Facebook are defending the shithole countries they fled. Not disingenuous, simply reality. No one is leaving Norway because it's not a shithole. Few people immigrate from the US because it's not a shithold. Many people leave South Sunda, because it is a shithole Many people leave Equitorial Guinea because it is a shithole. If these places were so great, why would people leave them? No one can or will answer this question.

Spot-on. You're my new favorite poster.
We have friends who travel extensively throughout Europe. They were appalled by Trump's "shithole" comment, so we asked if they had ever considered traveling to Haiti or any African countries. Of course, their answer was no. "But why?" we asked. Crickets.

Who helped Haiti to remain a shithole after the earthquake? That's right, Hillary Clinton and her hubby. She collected $500 million dollars dedicated to Haiti disaster recovery through her phony foundation and what people of Haiti received? Next to zilch.
How many houses did she build? Where is the hospital that she promised to build? People of Haiti know very well that she stole from them.
And she has guts to Tweet about the earthquake. Better tell us where is the Haitian money, not-a-racist Hilly? Chelsea's $3 m wedding and XXXX m condo, what else did you buy?

This is all such blatantly false BS

If you truly believe the bolded, you really need to check yourself. First, the Clinton Foundation has among the highest ratings, with a 93+ out of 100: https://www.charitynavigator.org/index.cfm?bay=search.summary&orgid=16680

And then if you really want a comparison, do a search for the Trump Foundation, which NY wouldn't allow Donald to shut down due to multiple investigations.

There is absolutely no truth to the idea that the Clintons personally and directly benefited in any way from Foundation proceeds.

People of Haiti know Clinton stole from them and they talk about it, and Americans know about, too. Clinton steal, fact. They are one of many reason why Haiti is doing so poorly.

The only Americans I met in Haiti outside of Port au Prince were conservative Christian aid workers. In several African countries the Chinese are rebuilding the infrastructure to establish factories and shipping centers because Africans work for less than the Chinese. If they can continue the economic colonization in sub-Saharan Africa, fewer people may leave. Rwanda was a prime shitholeb following the genocide, now the Chinese have cleaned it up

Trump implied that the people coming from these countries have something wrong with them. That is vicious and untrue.

Sadly yes, our education system has failed. The way racism supersedes basic critical thinking skills in the minds of so many proves that out.

Hardlly. Our education system is to blame, but not for what you said. Colleges are teaching that whiteness is a problem and that critical thinking and independent judgement will be condemned. Fall in line behind the liberal mantra, or face the consequences - up to and including death threads.

Our educational system is strained to the point of failure in many places because of the extremely large numbers of students for whom we're trying to provide the needed education to attend college and/or technical training while also providing special needs services, breakfast/lunch/snacks/weekend backpacks, counseling, psychological evaluations, medical treatment, after school care, music and art opportunities, second language instruction, etc. IT IS EXPENSIVE.

Cute comeback, but really....focus on a one-letter typo rather than address the hate and intolerance on the left? Should the party that pats itself on its collective back for its "inclusiveness" really threaten people with different opinions?

And then add in the liberal fight to provide sanctuary for illegal immigrants, and we have some schools where 1/3 of the students are ESOL. That comes with big costs - both quantifiable and unquantifiable.
