Republican Rep. Mia Love deplored President Donald Trump for reportedly criticizing immigrants coming to the United States from what he called "shithole countries."
"I can't defend the indefensible. You have to understand that there are countries that struggle out there. But their people, their people are good people and they're part of us. We're Americans," Love, who represents Utah and is the first Haitian-American elected to Congress, said on CNN's "State of the Union."
Referring to immigrants from African countries, Trump asked lawmakers during an Oval Office meeting on immigration reform, "Why do we want all these people from 'shithole countries' coming here?" a source briefed on the meeting told CNN.
The President has denied making the comment.
"The language used by me at the DACA meeting was tough, but this was not the language used. What was really tough was the outlandish proposal made - a big setback for DACA!" Trump tweeted on Friday.
Love, whose parents immigrated from Haiti, told "State of the Union" that she thinks the President's comments were racist.
"I think they were, yes. I think they were unfortunate. I don't know if they were taken -- I wasn't in the room. I know the comments were made. I don't know in which context they were made," she said. "I'm looking forward to finding out what happened, but more importantly, I'm looking forward to fixing the problem."

Ciao Mia.
Mia, you really are a low-IQ dolt, aren’t you? Apparently, you can take her out of the hood, but mentally she remains there.
You are, among many of us freepers, astutely aware of the open-borders crowd's ultimate end-game which includes the fact we're being played for suckers in the "assimilation" hoax...along with, I might add, the dim-witted Mia Love who obligingly rose to the occasion as designated sucker-bait.

One guy and he’s a democrat,media motto never let facts get in the way of a story.
she can't handle the truth
Fake headline about a fake quote supposedly criticizing another fake quote.
From the Central Fake News Network.
Nevermind that the President denies saying it, I wasn’t aware that s***holes was a race.
Another black GOP savior gone by the wayside. Gee imagine that! You’d think the GOP would learn at some point.
“Mia Love is a huge disappointment.”
And THAT my friend is a YUGE understatement.
Sheesh.

You are still a devout member of a church that claims blacks have black skin because of “the curse of Cain”(presuming God punished Cain by turning his skin dark for killing his brother Abel)
What’s more, black men were never given the priesthood in your faith until 1978 presuming that the color of one’s skin was indicative of worthiness or unworthiness, that is, until the leadership determined God’s curse was withdrawn!
Go explain that to your church on MLK Day!
Have a nice day (condemning others)
Mia Love turned into a Cheap Labor Express stooge almost as soon as she arrived in DC.
Milt told her to.
Mia Love is whatever Bishop Romney tells her to be.
There's an old saying that says that if one keeps the mouth shut, then nobody knows how little one knows.
Mia Love is a Bush League Republican who is for amnesty and open borders, definitely not conservative.
