President Trump reportedly referred to Haiti and countries in Africa as shithole countries and called for more immigrants from places like Norway at an Oval Office meeting with lawmakers, two people briefed on the meeting told the Washington Post on Thursday night.
The meeting was intended to hammer out an immigration deal that would extend protections and offer a path to citizenship to DACA recipients, but also include money for border security and reforms to some immigration programs.
According to the Post, one deal being considered would allow visas from the diversity lottery to go to immigrants who just lost Temporary Protected Status, which allowed them to stay and work in the US including those from Haiti and El Salvador, whose protections are expiring next year.
Thats the broad context for Trumps outburst. But this isnt the first time Trump has reportedly made racist comments about immigrants from predominantly nonwhite countries.
A New York Times report in December recounted a meeting in the Oval Office at which Trump railed against the recipients of US visas in 2017. During it, he reportedly complained Haitians all have AIDS and Nigerians would never go back to their huts. The White House denied Trump made those remarks.

MAGA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Swedes are going to need someplace to go, they have let their country get overrun with muslims.
Works for me!
This is the best one yet.
All the Dems want to do is fill the voter roles with their own slaves anyway.
I have room for a few. They would have to undergo proper vetting, naturally.
Liberals think it..Trump actually has the guts to SAY IT..FINALLY a President who tells the TRUTH without consequence. He is right..after all if these countries were so super awesome I guess the ones who came here illegally and are on temp visas can get the hell out now and go back to their wonderful paradise
assholes like shitholes
Unnamed sources plus its Vox
Ohhhhhh no...More Nordic muslims.....
The label was NOT a verbal slip. This man knows the power of everything he thinks muchless says. They are shitholes and his base knows it and would use that language. He has signaled that he has NOT forgotten the people who elected him. I am delighted that a rational thinker has finally called a spade a spade. Heck....I would rather have Norweigans coming here than Haitians....or even Indian IT professors than Mexican field workers. Trump may be politically incorrect but he spoke my language...and (unlike presumed by the media), I am not a blue-collar male...
He used the wrong term. The correct term is “Turd World” as in turd world countries.
MAGA!!! Spoken like a BOSS!!!
Unfortunately, the Western European countries that are culturally more compatible with the U.S. have so marinated themselves in socialism and political correctness that Im not sure how desirable they are either. Id vote for encouraging more Eastern Europeans, particularly from places like Poland, Hungary, and the Czech Republic, to emigrate. Many of them seem to have learned the hard way how truly evil authoritarian socialism/Marxism is, and want nothing to do with it ever again. They also seem to have nailed the threat posed by islamic refugees.
SCANDINAVIAN MAGA BUMP! LMAO....
Don’t want any from Norway either.
Forget Norway. Ask your lovely wife to invite some immigrants from Solvenia. We need more Melanias.
Why don’t we put a moratorium on ALL new immigrants, and use the next several years weeding out, and deporting the bad ones we already have?
Dems want slaves and dependents. Conservatives want contributors and team players.
But then he’d have to give credit to Michael Savage for coining the phrase.
