It’s time for us to have a serious conversation about what a sh*thole means. There are still many countries on the globe who have not been up to the challenge of public sewage. These countries have bathrooms that have a hole in the floor that you squat over to do your business. This often coincides with an inability to provide potable public drinking water. This state of affairs means rampant disease, low quality of life and shorter life spans. Haiti and many African countries meet that definition.

I laugh about how much splashes back on the s...hole media. This is one of those splashbacks.

“Given a choice between a steamed lobster tail and the puddles of paste that Ethiopian restaurants serve, I choose the lobster.”

Steaming lobster is one of the worst ways to cook it. Much of the flavor drips out. Grilled is far better.

And Ethiopian food is quite tasty and spicy, although probably not to the taste of someone who likes his lobster steamed.

I actually looked up Sh*thole. The term very accurately describes the countries mentioned.

Anderson Cooper claimed that he vacations in Haiti.

Whenever you have a Country that isn’t based on Freedom and Liberty for the common citizen, you have a Shithole.

And there in lies the reason for the democrats outrage. It's throwing shade on their parade

They identify with the description. A country plagued by corruption, graft, helpless citizenry, and an elite ruling class is the preferred environment for democrats. Also, their ultimate goal for us.

No doubt, but where in Haiti? There are rather nice all inclusive resorts there. I doubt Cooper is staying anywhere else.

If true (and that is HIGHLY questionable) I suspect it is because he can satisfy his sexual peccadillos there best, and I would not be surprised if he is HIV positive.

Can anyone - ANYONE - provide his direct quote on that subject? Pretty soon the Eskimos will chime in that they are offended also... We need to know HIS EXACT WORDS. Without them, these people are confirming that countries he didn’t even name are really what he described...

Once again President Trump in just a few words brings an issue to the public forum that the liberals do not want to discuss.

They thought they had a winning strategy when they jumped onto the choice of words, but like the SEXUAL ASSAULT charges came back and bit them in the butt. The President asking why we open our country to those that can not help us in any way is one that real Americans understand and exposes the fact that the left are just looking for more illiterate voters that they can manipulate.

“Once again President Trump in just a few words brings an issue to the public forum that the liberals do not want to discuss.”

Succinct and to the point.
This is America, where you can call a spade, a spade.
I think?
Maybe?
Use to be?

Thought the Clinton Foundation got $6 billion to rebuild Haiti after their hurricane? Where’s the results for the money. My list of shitholes, Haiti, Cuba, Venezuela, Yemen, Samoli (including Minneapolis, Detroit, London, Paris, Zimbabwe, India, Congo, all African country. How many cruise ships go to Gambia?
The UN is all up in lobster bisque over Trump calling countries shitholes. I want the UN to pack up and go to Gambia or they are racist.

According to the great Pastor, Dr. Robert Jeffress, President Trump was “Right on target.”

Full quote from Dallas Morning Fake News:

>>”Apart from the vocabulary attributed to him, President Trump is right on target in his sentiment,” Jeffress told the Christian Broadcasting Network.<<

I’ll bet he does. Lots of desperate young boys willing to do anything for a few American dollars.
