"Shithole countries" - Trump

Ishtard, hashtag, and canned corn...

Where’s Wounded Forklift Driver to complete the circle of partisan stupid?


When faced with another concrete example of the social ineptitude, limited and reductionist thinking, and ignorance of the arrogant elect, they can’t help but fall in lock-step and agree with the orange idiot.

If the cure for cancer was developed during Obama’s term, Trump would - to the cheers and gleeful grunts of his mouth-breathing MAGA groupies - quash it, and these four toolboxes would applaud. ‘Cause Obama...
 
A former Trump official told BuzzFeed News that although the president's comment may be distasteful to some, it could resonate with his base.

"While it might be uncomfortable for some people in the media to recognize, I think there's a large segment of voters who it resonates with as anti-pc 'straight talk,'" the former official said.

While Tonald Drump (Drumpf) was on the campaign trail in 2016, he dropped F-bombs, and every swear, curse, obscenity ( in American English, except for "cunt." He left that for word for the audience at the rallies.) This convinced his audiences that he was not politically correct, and "down to earth."

He’s not trying to win over black voters. If that were true, Trump would have made this pitch at a black church or any other space where black Americans are in wide attendance.


Trump has a real affinity for the white nationalists and other provocateurs who surround his campaign. A Trump who hires the executive director of Breitbart (a virtual hub for online racists) and whose first ad for the general election is anti-immigrant demagoguery is not a Trump interested in being respectable.


Trump is “not trying to win over black voters…. No, the point here – and the overall goal of this latest ‘pivot’ – is to salvage Trump’s standing with college-educated whites, who have turned decisively against the alleged billionaire for his outright bigotry and general buffoonery.”

Trump is turning the US into a shithole country.

LOL...what a load.


The US has been turning the US into a shithole country YEARS before Trump showed up.

Also the country isn't really turning into a shithole......you just live in a particularly shitty part of the country.
 
According to the aide, when the group came to discussing immigration from Africa Trump asked why we want all these people from "all these shithole countries" and that the U.S. should have more people from places like Norway.


HE IS RIGHT!

Although Swedes think Norway is a shithole.
 
Threads like this make me wish I'd come back to Lit in time for the last Presidential campaign. :D
 
Let's be clear: Trump is a shithead. Trump supporters are shitheads.

Don't equate America or other Americans with them.

Way to latch onto the talking point of the day. That indicates a brilliant, independent-thinking mind.
 
So, take a letter Nandina, address it to my wife, send a copy to my lawyer, I've got to start a new life...

They don't even know what the real issue is, only that Trump used a plain spoken phrase that they disapprove of. "Shithole" could be replaced with "dysfunctional society" and meaning remains pretty much unchanged.

All of those years of our schools indoctrinating the youth in 'multi-culturalism' and 'cultural egalitarianism' is beginning to make it's effects known.

Haiti is a shithole, it's always been a shithole. Yet St. Kitts isn't, neither is Grenada or even the Dominican Republic. Racially they are all equivalent, the difference is the culture.

Indeed. I have first-hand knowledge of this enduring truth. And it's not just Haiti, but a lot of those African countries where tribal thinking dominates the landscape. Same can be said for vast swatches of Asia. And now, we can add South America to the list where the culture has warmed up to and acclimated to the ideals of Socialism and the wealth that it is purported to produce in a more fair manner then evil "Capitalism."

Give us your freedom and we will give you your dreams.
 
One thing we seem to forget is that despite their lack of creature comforts and luxury amenities, those 'tribal societies' have existed for several times longer than the US.

They may not have indoor plumbing, but they have a longevity the US will never have.
 
Side issue 1: obviously a Democrat in the closed door bipartisan meeting in the WH Cabinet room leaked the President’s least attractive words to the press.

Other reports say there was salty language used by both sides of the aisle, but those words weren’t reported.

Thinking people of all stripes “get it”; this President is no Diplomat.

But his main point, which has been lost in the faux outrage, is Trump would like to see the US move towards more merit-based immigration standards.

Side Issue 2: Trump is an excellent troll. By commanding the daily news cycle with his Dem baiting, he has effectively reduced the Democrats to a state of perpetual irrational outrage and effectively suckered otherwise competent networks like CNN into behaving like jilted girlfriends.

As a result, the Democrats are playing defense every day, taking zero time to articulate policy alternatives or develop new leader and candidate public profiles for the coming mid terms or 2020 elections.

Love him or hate him, Trump has the Democrats completely off balance.
 
Also remember that if not for them, luxury connoisseurs wouldn't have much of what they have in the way of gold, diamonds and other precious metals and gems. Nearly all of it comes from mines in those areas exploited for 'pleasure' over need.

Then why would they even want to relocate to this "upstart?" They have it all, right?
