President Trump blasted Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) on Twitter Monday, claiming the senator totally misrepresented his reported comments calling Haiti and African nations shithole countries.
Link to tweet
Durbin confirmed a Washington Post report that Trump had made the shithole countries remark during a meeting with lawmakers on immigration reform, telling reporters that the president made hate-filled, vile and racist comments.
Youve seen the comments in the press, Durbin said Friday. Ive not seen one of them thats inaccurate. To no surprise, the president started tweeting this morning, denying that he used those words. It is not true. He said these hate-filled things, and he said them repeatedly.
Trump has denied that he made the comments on Twitter, although the White House did not initially deny the report. Durbin also told reporters that Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) had immediately spoken out against Trumps comments during the meeting.

(15,328 posts)He has no f'in idea what comes out of his mouth.
If he wants to deny that he used shithole then have him (not surrogates) say what his "remembered" term-of-endearment was.
It's really funny that South Africa (used to be white colonialist like the US) and one of the few US allies in the region was included in his shit-whatever spew. Wouldn't it be fun to watch him try to say something like "Well, all the countries except the ones that look like the US." (Of course, that isn't true either.)

(11 posts)When will any of the Democrats have some guts and call tRump by a denigrating nickname. I can just imagine his rage when someone refers to Big Fat Donald. I know it's juvenile but sometimes it's worth it.

why didn't he serve?
Trump likes to surround himself with the military but he was a 'chicken hawk'.
