President Donald Trump expressed frustration behind closed doors with people coming to the US from "shithole countries," The Washington Post reported Thursday. "Why are we having all these people from shithole countries come here?" Trump said, according to the Post, which cited two people briefed on the Thursday Oval Office meeting with lawmakers. Trump, in vulgar terms, rejects bipartisan immigration proposal at White House meeting
When lawmakers in the meeting floated restoring Temporary Protected Status for some immigrants, Trump grew frustrated and shocked the lawmakers with his "shithole" comment in reference to African countries and Haiti, according to the Post. Trump then suggested the US should bring in more people from countries like Norway, the report said. A person briefed on the meeting told CNN that Democratic Sen. Dick Durbin was running through a proposal listing countries that would be covered by TPS protections in exchange for ending the visa lottery. The person said when Durbin got to Haiti, Trump began to ask why we want people from Haiti in the US and asked why we want more Africans. The President then said, according to this person, why do we want all these people from "shithole countries" coming here -- and added that the US should get more people from countries like Norway.

Greatest and most honest president of my lifetime.
You mustn’t call a shithole country a shithole country.
Ahhhhhhhhh...those ultra-reliable UN-NAMED SOURCES!! You bet! That’s believable!
CNN = Counterfeit News Network
Don’t believe these Lying Leftist Media outlets that proved themselves during the 2016 campaign to be operatives of the DNC and intentional liars. They are presumed to be lying and we should presume what they publish is a lie. The presumption can only be rebutted with the outlet providing clear and convincing evidence they are not lying.
Why don’t we follow Trump’s lead here on FR? Let’s limit posting headlines from these wretched Lying Leftist outlets. If this story is true and has some redeeming value, at least get the story from a reasonably reliable source, not from a known Lying Leftist operative posing as a “news” organization.
I would call Muslim countries SH countries.
The Post with unnamed sources ...hmmm, I’m skeptical.
the UN wants this type of Migration ,LOL
CNN better be careful, they just might help Trump get reelected with that headline!
Not to worry, Ann Coulter! He will sign anything these people come up with! He! He! He! He! He!
I believe that he meant to say “those Third World Shitholes”. But. I guess that I’m just nit-picky.
Carry on.
Good question, Mr President! “Why are we having all these people from shithole countries come here?”
How can Haiti be a shit hole country ?
I thought the Clintons saved it.
President Trump just picked up another 100,000 votes.
L
Awesome, if he said it, so what....it’s true.
We bring in folks that are illiterate in their own damn languages, only hear for free stuff, no interest in assimilation...and bring their genetic hatreds of everything with them.
Damn good question.
Of course, the report is from CNN so it's probably Fake News.
according to the Post.
Well there you have it.
Most folks never been to these vacation paradises have they? Just a SWAG!
Tomorrow’s press conference is going to be classic.
Tear ‘em up, Sarah!!
I have to agree with President Trump. We are not the world’s trash dump. Why are we saddled with the constant cost of taking in these losers that democrats label as refugees . Why are they coming here with all the countries in the world to choose from ?
Why is it democrats always aim for the bottom of the barrel?
You want to bring people into the US, you shoot for those who will be an asset not a liability.
