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."

Aha! You remember...not that it was that long ago.To recap (and go back to the original posts for confirmation) I stated that *some* Jews are schemers *just as surely* as some Irish (I'm 100% Irish going back hundreds and hundreds of generations) are dirty drunks.
I *know* what I've seen in *some* Jews,I *know* what I've seen in *some* Irish and I *know* what I've seen in just about every one of the many Third World countries I've visited.
Tanzania,Kenya,Malawi,Zambia,Mozambique,South Africa,India,Indonesia,Malaysia,China,Brazil...
Who else excited for Romney/Love 2020?

Eric Cartman: Oh my God, it smells like ass out here.
Miss Stevens: All right, that does it. Eric Cartman, you respect other cultures this instant.
Eric Cartman: I wasn’t saying anything about their culture, I was just saying their city smells like ass.
Miss Stevens: You may think that making fun of third-world countries is funny but let me...
Eric Cartman: I don’t think it’s funny. This place is overcrowded, smelly and poor. That’s not funny, that sucks.
is that why, when the Mormons come to our house, they always ask “do you have any Spanish speaking neighbors?”
I have a feeling the reports that she called "his comments" racist were fake news, too. Look at how it's being reported. She didn't say it was racist, but answered yes to a question of if it was. There is no telling how the question was put to her, if at all.
Once again, the MSM has managed to turn us on each other.
Apparently Utah, being the exact opposite of Haiti, is far preferable to her than that place.
Somehow I think she likes to vacation in Aspen not Port-Au-Prince.
Trump DID NOT say the people were shitholes, only the country where they resided. Have to thank the media for that one as well.
Data are not racist, they simply report the facts in numerical fashion.
The racist, factual truth is that most crime, especially violent crime is committed by those of African descent.
What is even more racist than the data is this: the mainstream media, including the so-called 'conservative' talking heads (including the African ones) dare not report this truth: whites and Asians are being victimized daily by blacks and the media is mum.
The media knows people are stupid and will swallow the spin they put on what Trump says.
“Mia Love is a huge disappointment.”
I have to agree. She turned out to be a big loser.
“The racist, factual truth is that most crime, especially violent crime is committed by those of African descent.”
#1 “most crime” aren’t committed by blacks. “Crime” is a bit of a broad term.
#2 About 85% of the victims of black criminals are other blacks.
#3 the vast majority of blacks in America have no criminal record.
My pet peeve with people posting that, is that they kind of sloppily toss it out there and then walk away with no details other than “blacks are all dangerous criminals”. It’s as irresponsible as saying “most homicides are committed by gun owners.”
That’s a Big Lie right there. Goebbels NEVER SAID THAT.
Hope sucking up to the media was worth the 40 pieces of silver.
But they are still fools considering that even the upper class Romans fell. The upper class Romans were simply oblivious to their upcoming demise while the trials raided and looted their cities.
It’s CNN. May be FAKE news?
II recall Kathy Griffin saying that in Kuwait, the whole country smells like a fart. Is Kathy Racist?
Another RINO-’rat never Trumper is exposed.
One of the main Mormon recruitment tools I’ve seen overseas is Mormon Missionaries offering free English language classes. They really are little better than Hare Krishna in my book.
