#Trump
https://www.cnbc.com/2018/01/11/white-house-doesnt-deny-that-president-trump-referred-to-haiti-african-nations-as-s--hole-countries.html President Donald Trump referred to Haiti and African nations as "s---hole countries" in a meeting with lawmakers, a Democratic aide briefed on the matter told NBC News.

The Washington Post first reported the news, citing two people briefed on the meeting. The newspaper said that lawmakers had convened with the president in the Oval Office on Thursday to discuss a bipartisan immigration deal.

When lawmakers brought up protections for immigrants from Haiti, El Salvador and African countries, Trump asked, "Why are we having all these people from s---hole countries come here?"

Haiti has a pretty fucked up history. According to this, France first fucked 'em. Then, they came back and extorted them. Then, We invaded, took over, and subjugated the 'niggers' again. Oh, and we took all of their gold. We continued to fuck with them, organizing coups, continued to invade them twice in this century. And the UN brought them cholera.


So is it or is it not a shithole? Remember, the argument is not about who's "guilty" of what, but the current state of that country.

Then the Clinton Foundation finished them off by fucking them out of BILLIONS of hurricane relief!!

Billions of dollars were raised by the Clinton Foundation to help the Haitians, but the vast bulk of this money was funneled to Clinton friends and associates, according to Dr. Lorich, who described in harrowing detail what this meant for the children of Haiti.

Billions? The foundation raised about $30m for Haiti. Where on earth do you get this nonsense from?

the argument is not about whether Haiti is a shit hole. That is subjective and beside the point.

Once again, it's all our fault.

Nothing subjective here. If it looks, stinks and rots like a shithole, it is a shithole.

Has anyone confronted him on his foolish remarks? I'm curious to know what he would say about Venezuela now, knowing it's such a failure.
My guess, he will just blame America like everyone else does.

There's nothing more bigoted and identitarian than saying that no people from haiti should be let in the country, because the country is a shithole. Whether or not Haiti is a shithole is irrelevant, because we are a merit based society. We don't assess people by the quality of their group. Well, Trump does. His supporters don't think it's racist when he does.

Isn't Melania Trump from a shit-hole country too? Trump is clearly racist. It's sad that after so much work on civil rights in this country, we have a racist president again.

101   Shaman   2018 Jan 13, 6:28am  

The problem with people from shitholes is that they have cultural and social issues responsible for CREATING the shitholes in which they’ve lived. When we import such people, they often bring these cultural issues along for the ride. If they settle in a group, they’ll have a chance to create new shitholes right here in America. The only way they are useful is if they drop their diseased culture for the more vibrant American culture. Otherwise they just create problems.
Unfortunately we have academics insisting that we all need to value everyone’s native culture, even if it does turn nice places into shitholes.

Studies on the diversity lottery, wherein only country of origin matters, necessitate judging the effectiveness of said policies solely by the country of origin.

Shocker: countries w high crime rates and low income result in immigrants who create crime and cost taxpayers money.

The irony is that these countries are only part of the diversity lottery because they are shithole in the first place.

You realize that Brazil has over 200M people, and is one of the largest countries by landmass to boot, but has the same exact vote as Little Lithuania or Gambia with just over 2 Million?

How about Malta or Iceland with less than a million, compared to Mexico or Malaysia? One vote each.

Literally a country with half a million people has the same vote share as one with almost a billion. Undemocratic and Unrepresentative.

The UN is a joke, a meeting of corrupt officials. Time for it to go away entirely, it's obsolete.


You realize that montana with 600,000 people has he same vote in the senate as california with 40 million people.The senate is a joke, a meeting of corrupt officials. Time for the senate to go away entirely it's obsolete.

Bzzt wrong. We are discussing the DV lottery sepcifically, and the merits thereof.

Thank you for showing us that regular immigration works though. Does this mean you are in favor of eliminating the DV lottery? Or do you agree w the fake news that discussing the DV lottery is itself racist?

Apparently you’ve never heard of how savagely the Irish were hated when they first came as immigrants. People compared them as worse than negros and gave them the shittiest work. The government drafted half of the men and got them killed on civil war battle fields. They got acculturated in time and everyone forgot that they hated Irish.

That is how our Republic is formed. It’s not a perfect Democracy, but that’s intentional because mob rule is one step away from total anarchy. If you like that sort of government, I hear Somalia is nice this time of year. Perhaps you should visit?

Everything looks good from one mile up in the air, but what I meant was former Yugoslavia - breakup of the country + ethnic warfare for many years with rival factions attempting to carry out ethnic cleansing genocide. Racists are found all across the globe, not just in this country. This isn't about Haiti vs Slovenia, but the racist thinking that trump and his gang encourage that if not checked will lead this country into another civil war.

Trump, as a president, is clearly racist and he is exercising his white privilege to make and pass comments with the weight of his presidency that no non-white president would have the privilege of doing. People will tolerate this crap only for so long. US is no longer a "whites only" country (if it every was since one can't forget the often overlooked fact that there were non-white native Indians here before whites illegally immigrated to north and south america).

And let's not forget the tent cities here in our own backyard as idot trump conveniently ignores as he passes degrading remarks about poor in other places.

You can't possibly think Trump is given a pass as compared to Obama. Obama killed brown people around the world every day of his presidency, yet somehow could do no wrong in the eyes of the media. Trump, OTOH, is framed as a racist from everyday behavior, like drinking from a water bottle or eating 2 scoops of iced cream.
