Dick Durbin (D) Says Trump Did Say "Sh*thole"
Twitter ^ | January 12, 2018

Earlier today, President Trump denied saying that the TPS countries such as Haiti were "sh*tholes".

I knew there were Democrats in the meeting, so I figured they would come forth with their side, and sure enough:

Sen. Dick Durbin now knocking down Trump's denial: "It's not true. He said those hateful things, and he said them repeatedly."

People who attended the immigration meeting where Trump made his "shithole" comment:

-President Donald Trump

-Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC)

-Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL)

-Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA)

-Sen. David Perdue (R-GA)

-Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR)

-Rep. Robert Goodlatte (R-VA)

Based on the White House's lack of denial last night and the fact that Trump is not PC, him having said it would not surprise me. I think a different term should have been used if he used it. As I said in depth, there are a lot of countries that are not well off, but we can't take everyone from them.

There were Republicans in the meeting. They will be asked. If they say he said it, it will make it worse than to just admit to it and explain his comments. If they deny he said it, then that's different.

Trump did say on Twitter he should record meetings from now on. Wise strategy whenever a Democrat is involved is to record the meeting. Otherwise, he has to realize that if a Democrat or RINO is in a meeting with him, he should expect it will hit the press - all of it. Speak as though it's all being recorded.

SO WHAT?

If one won’t LIVE in Haiti or Africa, or in a Haitian or African neighborhood (even “African American neighborhood), then one is admitting by their own inaction that these places are crapholes

Let’s be honest about this. Actions speak MUCH louder than words. If one won’t live with these types, then one is saying “they are craphole hoods”

What Trump allegedly said is only the truth. If they’re not crapholes, then shop for your next house and public school there.

Otherwise, STHU
