US President Donald Trump has sparked outrage after he was reported to have used crude language to describe foreign countries in an Oval Office meeting.
Mr Trump said he did not say "anything derogatory" about Haitians and appeared to deny calling any countries "shitholes", as was reported, generating a worldwide backlash.
However, Democratic Senator Dick Durbin said Mr Trump used "racist" language.
The president did call some African nations "shitholes", he said.
Amid widespread coverage of his reported remarks at a private meeting with lawmakers to discuss immigration on Thursday, Mr Trump on Friday tweeted his language at the meeting "was tough, but this was not the language used".

I am SO stealing that!
Maybe Trump will start recording his meetings, in case some rat or RINO bastard wants to lie. I wonder if he could stop inviting rats to these meetings.
Nothing at all! I've been saying exactly "turd world shitholes" for YEARS now! That's what they are!!!
Oh, they DO know how to how outrage! I was wondering! They didn’t give a $hit over muzzies murdering and raping humans. They don’t care at all about the victims of 9/11. They do get hysterical over mere words.
.........umm, most African countries actually are sh*thole nations-—run by criminals, drug cartels, thugs, despots, destroyed by extreme poverty, war, disease. They countries are the worst of the sh*tholes in spite of the BILLIONS of dollars we have given them in foreign aid.
In fact, our State Department (throughout various administrations) has politely designated these sh*thole countries to be on the “Do not travel” warning list. “Do not travel”, sh*thole, same thing.
Leftards are peeing all over themselves with glee, they get to play the racist card LMAO!!!
Be my guest.
Most of the Trump abusers also seem to have a questionable record where women are concerned. At least that is the way it appears with all of the howling (and donations) coming out of Hollywood and Silicon Valley. Investigate corruption. You’ve got all kinds of accounts of coercion, and human trafficking has been exploding. Trump gets nothing close to fair coverage. These are all facets of the same thing, corruption.
Thank you!
Liberals call you racist if you don’t like mudslimes.
How is mudslime a race? Did I miss the memo?
If these countries aren’t shitholes, than it is perfectly natural to expect those people to return to their grand and glorious countries, and leave the racist US.
Not “racism” as Somali isn’t a race... But consider this, as some other Freeper mentioned yesterday, I believe:
Somalia consists of some 24,000 square miles with the longest unbroken coastline in Africa. (~1,880 miles) It has climate and topography somewhat similar to southern California. Hills & plateaus, some high-desert; with two permanent rivers running through, yet it has a per-capita GDP of around $435.00 US.
California, by comparison, has a per-capita GDP of around $56,375.00
Why is that? Is it the result of racism? Not likely...
Somalia is a shithole country precisely because it’s full of Somalians & run by Somalians. Not every culture is equivalent.
The Cedar-Riverside area of Minneapolis MN couldn’t be more different in climate and resources to Somalia; but it’s ALSO a shithole. Why? Because it’s full of Muslim Somalians.
Trump is right. The idiots screaming “RACISM” already figured out the calculus above, and want to make it go away by mis-labeling it. Somalian isn’t a race... Haitian isn’t a race. Yet somehow every place on earth that is controlled by Haitians also becomes a shithole as above...
“DIVERSITY IS OUR STRENGTH”... No. An elegant mathematical equation is not strengthened by superfluous numbers or error.
Given four medical diagnoses, three of which agree, and one that differs: It does not matter which is correct, NEITHER is strengthened by the existence of the other. One (or three) of them may actually effect relief of your symptoms, but diversity did not strengthen any.
Culture causes “shithole” nations, and continuing to import that culture to the US will have exactly the effect we’re witnessing already.
GREAT post, Hugh the Scot! THANKS!!
Great one!
Yup. The pearl clutching continues .. and Trump’s base gets stronger. They know he speaks the truth, and isn’t afraid to speak the truth.
You’re welcome. :-)
