US President Donald Trump has denied using crude words attributed to him about Haiti, El Salvador and African countries.
Reports that he had called them s---hole countries in an Oval Office meeting generated a backlash worldwide.
One UN official called the remarks racist and said they opened the door to humanitys worst side.
But Mr. Trump has tweeted that this was not the language he used in a meeting about immigration.
He wrote that the language he used was tough, but this was not the language used.
The Washington Post, the New York Times, Politico and the Wall Street Journal all reported the comments on Thursday, quoting witnesses or people briefed on the meeting. The White House did not deny them.

I agree, but sadly it looks like he didn’t and dick Durban just made it up. 2 other people didn’t hear it, only dick.
To: Olog-hai
He probably called those countries "sheep hose" countries, and they got it wrong again...

I learned about “Drano fish” from people in Minnesota of Norwegian descent, too.

Sadly, it does not matter now. It is out around the world. The world believes he said it, damage done. He can deny to the chickens come home to roost. The world wants to believe he said it, thus do now. Damage done.

All he has to do is say he had a cold. Everything is forgiven (not). What he said came out as, "Turd-world", and Durbin took it from there...

Exactly.. President Trump said he used tough language, but did not use the words the haters accused him of using. I hope he does tape every meeting with Dems from now on.. The sad thing is, the hater can’t see truth, even with the truth on tape!

On Jeopardy the other night, the final question had something to do with two senators, one from MA and the other from VA, whose names form an anagram. Not one of the three contestants got it right - Warren and Warner. Ironically, during the Bret Baer news hour that same evening, he had on both, giving them way too much time to bash the POTUS, the tax bill, policy, etc.

Then they’ll get a ninth circuit judge to order the release of tapes on everything from immigration to tree pruning. :>)

I’d be glad if he said “I said it, it’s the truth, and everyone knows it. No more millions coming here to mooch. What the #### is so good about diversity? How’d that work out for them in the Serbian region? With the hutus and tutsis?”

What damage? And who is “the world”?
The media misrepresents what’s going on in the real world by a great degree, especially who believes what.

Yup! Leftists take everything to the extreme.. They have a long history of turning good ideas into bad.
Activist judges getting away with upsurping the President has to end.
