Trump derides protections for immigrants from ‘shithole’ countries
The Washington Compost ^ | January 11 at 7:31 PM | Josh Dawsey

President Trump grew frustrated with lawmakers Thursday in the Oval Office when they discussed protecting immigrants from Haiti, El Salvador and African countries as part of a bipartisan immigration deal, according to several people briefed on the meeting.

“Why are we having all these people from shithole countries come here?” Trump said, according to these people, referring to countries mentioned by the lawmakers.

Trump then suggested that the United States should instead bring more people from countries such as Norway, whose prime minister he met with Wednesday. The president, according to a White House official, also suggested he would be open to more immigrants from Asian countries because he felt they help the United States economically.

In addition, the president singled out Haiti, telling lawmakers that immigrants from that country must be left out of any deal, these people said.

“Why do we need more Haitians?” Trump said, according to people familiar with the meeting. “Take them out.”

Lawmakers were taken aback by the comments, according to people familiar with their reactions. Sens. Lindsey O. Graham (R-S.C.) and Richard J. Durbin (D-Ill.) had proposed cutting the visa lottery program by 50 percent and then prioritizing countries already in the system, a White House official said.

How can a rational person support a random immigration “lottery?”

These people have sold their souls to somebody.

Hopefully that somebody will claim them soon.

Even if he said this, it is a totally relevant question.

Protections for immigrants apparently equals prioritizing particular countries in the "immilotto". Unbelievable.

Just watched Laura Ingram, she had a man who was an advocate for DACA and she told him angrily that Trump should get a new immigration lawyer ( which he was.)

America wouldn’t have an illegal alien problem if these countries weren’t sh!tholes.

I just went DUmpster diving. The DUmmies are playing up a young woman from Ghana who has been accepted as a neurosurgeon resident at an American hospital. Good for her, but I wonder why she didn’t do that in Ghana? Maybe because it’s a sh-——e?

The ARE statistics on ‘immigrants’ from various counties - how many come here from different countries AND which groups become productive Americans and which groups come commit crimes and who goes on welfare.

And yes, the graphs are different. And yes, it matter. Matters to the Americans here who 'pay the price' for elites 'feeling good about themselves"...

People coming from El Salvadore are NOT the same as people coming from Norway... Check it out Washington Post reporters. Life is more than 'feelings'... facts matter.

Now ‘elites’ at the Washington Post want to pretend that only ‘averages’ matter... but they are wrong on this... and those of us who support these people have the right to know our country is choosing wisely.

“Why do we need more Haitians?” Trump said, according to people familiar with the meeting. “Take them out.”

I am guessing the Post writer originally wrote something like this:

“Why do we need more Haitians?” Trump said, according to people familiar with the meeting. “Take them out and whip them. They're black and suitable only as slaves. Whipping them keeps them in their place and teaches them to fear the white man.”

Nice to have a real President again. One who can look at stupid, destructive policy that’s been going on for 50 years and say ‘WTF! Not on my watch’

Pay attention, my fellow FReeper FRiends:

NOT ONE OF THE PEOPLE MAKING THESE DECISIONS ABOUT THE FUTURE DEMOGRAPHICS OF THE USA WILL HAVE
TO LIVE WITH THE OUTCOME!

THEY ARE RICH, LIVE IN GATED COMMUNITY ENCLAVES, ARE SURROUNDED BY ARMED PERSONAL SECURITY GUARDS AND
DO NOT HAVE TO, NOR WILL THEY EVER, GO OUT INTO THE SOCIETY THAT YOU AND I HAVE TO DEAL WITH EVERY DAY!

THEIR KIDS AND GRANDKIDS GO TO PRIVATE SCHOOLS, AND THEIR MAIDS AND BUTLERS SHOP FOR THEM! THEY DO NOT
EVEN HAVE TO LEAVE THEIR COMPOUNDS IN THE ORDINARY COURSE OF THEIR DAILY ACTIVITIES!

LET ME REPEAT: THEY DO NOT HAVE TO LIVE WITH THE OUTCOME OF THEIR INSANE DECISONS!

Yes, I was intentionally yelling! I am damn sick and tired of these snotty, hoi polloi establishment Inside the Evil Beltway assholes making decisions
about Real American’s lives that they themselves do not have to abide by or suffer under!

And, the poor suffering Real American taxpayer gets to pay for the privilege of having their life disrupted and turned upside down by these insane
LIEberals!

Wake up, America! We are being sold out!
