Birds of a feather. They don't call the Senate the World's Most Exclusive Club for nothing.
Besides, what do you expect Republicans to do when the heat is on?

President Trump on Friday said he may begin recording future meetings after he alleged Democrats he met with at the White House on Thursday fabricated derogatory remarks about Haiti.
"Never said anything derogatory about Haitians other than Haiti is, obviously, a very poor and troubled country. Never said 'take them out.' Made up by Dems. I have a wonderful relationship with Haitians. Probably should record future meetings - unfortunately, no trust!" Trump tweeted Friday morning.

Earlier Friday morning, Trump rejected reports that he told lawmakers that the U.S. should block immigrants from "shithole" countries, but admitted he used "tough" language in that meeting.
"The language used by me at the DACA meeting was tough, but this was not the language used," Trump wrote. "What was really tough was the outlandish proposal made — a big setback for DACA!"
The pushback comes the morning after the Washington Post reported that sources from a bipartisan meeting between Trump and senators recalled the president saying Haiti, El Salvador and some African countries were "shithole countries" and asked why the U.S. should accept immigrants from there.

Trump: Hey, Fake News, what I actually said was “deplorable” countries. That’s acceptable, right?
The point is that Trump's denying he said it and Durbin is saying he did. Where are the other people in the room to support the President and call Durbin a liar?
Who were the Republicans? Flake and Graham?
Darn and I thought he was quoting Me ,LOL
“Tweet by @Carpedonktum:
The day that Trump made the left spend 24 hours saying how beautiful and successful the Sh!thold countries are, thus negating their argument that illegals can’t go home because their home country is a Sh!thole.”
Beautiful!
I don’t fault Trump for saying “sh’thole” although I do fault him for saying it in front of sh’thead Dick Durbin who leaked it.
P L A Y T H E A U D I O ! Until then this story is crap.
Graham was there. But so were Senators Cotton and Perdue as well as Congressmen McCarthy, Goodlatte, and Diaz-Balart. Crickets from all of them.
Well, he sure should have!
Maybe Trump just told the Truth.
That always stirs up the stupid ones.
I agree. The media and the DemocRATs really should stop digging the hole they dug themselves in - but they won't.
This is what I’m sayin......
Excellent tweet.

I ran a reverse image search on your photos. The bottom one is the harbor of Bergen, Norway. It is by Girish Chouhan of VisitBergen.com. The top one is by Hector Retamal after the 2010 Haitian earthquake showing a canal in the Cite Soleil neighborhood of Port-au-Prince. Getty Images owns the rights to the photo.
So none of them will come to the President’s defense? And I thought Trump said the other day that 97% of the people in Congress love him and he loves them.
Washington DC love.
Hey Haiti, if the shoe fits...
The good thing about this is that Trump will never let a meeting go unrecorded again. Though he should know by now that Dims are not good but dirty players in any political game.
