Republican Rep. Mia Love (Utah) on Thursday called for President Trump to apologize for those he "wantonly maligned" in his reported comments about immigrants from "shithole countries."
Love, who was born to Haitian parents, said the president's comments about those from Haiti and African countries were "unkind, divisive, elitist and fly in the face of our nation's values."
"My parents came from one of those countries, took an oath of allegiance to it, and took on the responsibilities of everything that being a citizen comes with," she said in a statement.
"The President must apologize to both the American people and the nations he so wantonly maligned," Love said.

Trump — “Ok. I will apologize. I am sorry Haiti is a shithole country. I am sorry. I really am.”
The dems will draw the line once they stop losing elections.
No, but members of my family are from places like that. It’s the not wanting them that I have a problem with.
For decades, we have called impoverished, non-industrialized, and diseased nations “Third World” and no one complained about insensitivity or racism. By definition, Third World countries are ShitHoles.
We DON'T want them! And after going through five years and a mountain of paperwork to get a BABY from overseas I don't welcome ANYONE who wants to come to this country and change IT rather than themselves.
Damn; and I thought that was my state, California.
Just a evil thing
No kidding, what an idiot.
that is getting too obvious
Basically, Norwegians are pretty happy where they are, which is why we don’t get many from there anymore.
She is a snake .
P.S. Please don't presume to tell others WHY I'm defending "him."
I defend Trump because I AGREE with him. When I don't agree with him, I'll say so, and why.
A lot of people here on FR LOVED Mia Love. She was a minority, she was conservative, she was wonderful.
Where are those people now?
If the foo shits, Mia! If the foo shits!
Like me, I doubt very much that he has any problem with the people in general from those countries, but do you really believe we are getting their best?
Most likely their gutter scrapings like happened in the Mariel Boatlift in 1980.
Remember those countries have to give their people clearance to come here, and I think they are very selective in who they let go.
FUML
No one should ever apologize for speaking the truth. If people were offended by Trump’s truth, that’s their problem.
Do you think there are people in *any* other countries who want to import millions of uncivilized, illiterate refugees?
Another Repub sell-out apologizing self-flagellating chump.
