Alabama and Arkansas come to mind.


So, it's perfectly ok to refer to certain states as shitholes (and don't forget the entire Appalachian region and "flyover country," which we all know liberals think are shitholes too). But say the same about certain countries and all of a sudden you're a racist. Do you liberals hear yourselves?


Really? You think it's okay to refer to certain states and areas as shitholes? I've got news for you.

And if you wouldn't refer to these areas as shitholes, you shouldn't refer to other countries as that either.


Whoooosh. You really missed the point, didn't you? Here, I'll spell it out for you:
I never said it was ok to refer to certain states and areas as shitholes. I was stating that the PP feels it's perfectly ok to do so, as s/he did, above. My point was that if PP (and liberals, in general) feel this is fine to do, then they are showing their usual hypocritical stripes by criticizing the president for calling certain countries shitholes. You guys want it both ways. You want to constantly dump on "flyover country" by calling the people who live there all kinds of names, and the areas they live in shitholes, but God forbid anyone else criticize another country.


You don’t think the president should be held to a different standard than some a**hole on an online forum?


Nope, we're egalitarians here in the USA!

Not the PP, but what an asinine comment. Of course the story is all over the newspapers. The point is, have they named the sources, or is everyone satisfied with the usual "anonymous" sources? Perhaps we need to gently shake your shoulders?


The stupid hurts.


I know it does, but once you remember that your beloved liberal media has an agenda it hurts a lot less

There is no liberal media. There's conservative media in various flavors of crazy. There's corporate media - what you would consider the "liberal media." And there's much more independent media.

But the only "agenda" of the owners of corporate media? Clicks and money. Reporters probably want to report (so long as they aren’t among the 200 reporters reportedly working for Russia) but their owners? Money money money money.

You defend the indefensible. Shame on you.


Honestly he's right though. If you import the third world here the US is going to become more like the third world.

My question: is Trump going totally off the deep end and no longer cares about showing what a disgusting racist he is or is he trying to distract us from some awful policy, hire or Russia bombshell. Friday awaits, I guess.

I would like to point out that the Diversity Visa Lottery is currently the ONLY “normal” way for a Norwegian (Swede, German, French,...) to immigrate here - other than an over million dollar investment or a rare specialty visa category.

So, whoever wants to attract more Northern Europeans, is forgetting that they are shutting down all their pathways....


This issue could be fixed if they really wanted to. But, I doubt residents of Europe would really want to immigrate to the us right now. Most people want to go the other way...

“There’s no liberal media.” LOL

I guess I just was daydreaming during the eight years of Obama on CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, the Washington Post, the LA Times, and the New York Times worshipped his every step, the same media outlets than attack our president day in and day out.

Have you bought your ticket to Haiti yet?


Why? Haiti is struggling but given the economics of haiti, there is a logical reason.

what's you reason for why america is trash?

the fact that america has no excuses is what makes it even worse.



Then why do we have so many people who want to immigrate here and leave their countries behind?


No responses to this question?

The world is becoming a shithole. By the middle of the Century half of workforce age people will be from Africa. White European countries are not replacing themselves and will die out by the end of the Century. Intellectual powerhouses like Japan will have radically reduced population in 20 years

Trump is too late. The demographics are against him.

And so many don't see a problem in this at all. Think European or Japanese culture is a good thing and think steps should be taken to preserve it? You're nothing more than a vile racist. Think an Africa with 2.5 billion people is going to mean large-scale refugee crisis for the world and that they should reduce their birthrates? Again, racist. It's the oddest of times when so many collectively wish for cultural and ethnic suicide.

Multiple accomplished scientists from middle eastern countries and elsewhere have been turned away at America’s border since Trump took office.



“Merit” arguments are a crock.




Exactly. Immigrants from the “third world” are smarter more able than immigrants from other first world countries. If anything, we should ask for more immigrants from Haiti and Africa, and fewer from Europe. It’s easy to see that the future belongs to the former.



It's the creaming effect. Duh!

He called the countries--not the people from them--"shitholes," which most people would say they are at this time. If the countries aren't "shitholes," then why the need for prolonged temporary protected status for Salvadorans, for instance?

Precisely.

The last time he wavered on DACA he went off on the NFL players. He had to say something racist today since he was getting hammered by his base after his performance with Congress in the cabinet room this week.
