The very sensible Haitian-American Republican, Mia Love (Republican rep from Utah) has called for Trump to apologize for his vulgar word, and I agree. Trump should choose words like a president, not like Sarah Silverman.

That said, Rand Paul is right, too. This one slip into vulgarity was, at the same time, a truth breakthrough, which is to say, there are places where 90% of the populace is living in wretched, busted-down-outhouse conditions, but the simple fact that they are wretched doesn't mean they can all move here.

We can't employ them all. We can't re-house them all. We can't educate them all. Frankly, we're doing a **it-poor job educating our own.

Trump is not a racist, as RonPaul convincingly points out. But he ought to express his argument in such a way that he doesn't seem like an Andrew Dice Clay trying to push out the Overton Window on imbecilic language.

I wouldn’t approve of Trump using language like that in his State of the Union Address, or anywhere there are cameras and microphones, but this was a closed door meeting with a handful of people. So if he did say that, Durbin is just a snot-nosed little tattle tale. And if he didn’t, Durbin’s a liar. Either way, I don’t care if President Trump uses language like that in private, personally.

Should he apologize even if he didn’t utter the word?

That’s uncalled for. He was in a private meeting and had every right to expect anything said would be keep within those walls. People talk like that, especially men when they are really angry, and he WAS really angry. They lied to him. They said they had a deal that he would sign in order to get the meeting. It was a lie.

He wasn’t on camera, he wasn’t speaking in public. It’s just words.

Rand Paul certainly did more for the Haitian people then the Clintons ever did-he is a truly good person. That said, I don’t really care what anyone says in private or public as long as it is an accurate assessment-and Pres Trump was certainly right on the mark-Haiti isn’t exactly a paradise-the people there turned it into a big, open sewer and garbage pit a long time ago.

Pres Trump showed more restraint than I would have-I don’t know anyone who doesn’t refer to 3d world s***holes as just that even in public-we have that much contempt for the corrupt governments that never let a penny reach those who need help-I’m all for not giving them another dime in aid, so they have to face their own problems and solve them-even if it means mounting a coup d’ etat...

Mia Love is a Bush League Republican who wants amnesty and open borders. Not sensible.

Mia Love is not “sensible”. She’s a Romney RINO Nevertrumper who needs to be voted out of office.

So what your saying is you reflexively believe Dick Durbin (who has a history of lying about statements made in private meetings), Mia Love (who has turned into a DACA queen and wasn't there but runs with Durbin's allegation), and the MSM who have run with it to hypocritically smear Trump, and you don't believe President Trump, and Senator Sonny Perdue (R-GA) who actually was also there who said that Trump did not say that word either.

Guess Trump learns very quickly who his real friends are who merely say they are his friends.

He's got an amazing way of being able to smoke out the posers, and make his detractors choke on their accusations, doesn't he?

FReegards!
