Maryland lawmakers, Mayor Pugh condemn Trump's comments on immigrants
Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh said Trump is arguably the most influential person in the country and possibly the world.
The U.S. leader has been under fire at home and overseas after he reportedly referred to Haiti and African nations as "shithole countries" during a meeting on an immigration deal with a group of bipartisan lawmakers at the White House on Thursday. Haiti and the other countries involved in this discussion are generally poor, underdeveloped and plagued with challenges that make life hard.
"The so-called bipartisan Daca deal presented yesterday to myself and a group of Republican Senators and Congressmen was a big step backwards", he said referring to the deferred action on childhood arrivals Bill that aims to give protection to "dreamers", undocumented immigrants who arrived to the USA as children. "I have not read one of them that's inaccurate".
President Trump tried Saturday to blame Democrats for stalling an immigration reform plan he himself has denounced.
Trump later tweeted Friday morning that he never said anything derogatory.
Reaction from Republicans on the president's reported remarks have been mixed.
El Salvador, also facing an end to protected status for its 200,000 citizens living in the United States, sent a formal letter of protest to the usa government over the comments. Never said 'take them out.' Made up by Dems.
Yesterday, Mr Trump denied making the remarks, saying he had been "tough, but this was not the language used".
The United Nations on Friday slammed US President Donald Trump´s reported description of African nations and Haiti as "shithole" countries as "shocking and shameful", and "racist".

Key winning points from Uhuru's meeting with SA's Jacob Zuma
The ANC today held its birthday celebrations in East London where it was commemorating its formation in 1912. President Uhuru Kenyatta has left South Africa where he has been since Thursday.
Trump on Thursday reportedly asked why the US should permit immigrants from "s--hole countries", according to three people briefed on the oval office conversation.
Jeffress said Trump got the "sentiment" correct and he was "right on target" by questioning why the USA accepts immigrants from those countries during an Oval Office meeting with lawmakers.
Trump's denial came among a series of other tweets in which he defended his immigration stance.
"I have a wonderful relationship with Haitians", he said on Twitter, adding that Democrats had made the accusations up. Trump denied using the word Friday. "What was really tough was the outlandish proposal made - a big setback for DACA!"
"This is very much a vile and disgusting comment coming from the president of the United States", he added.
El Salvador has also sent a formal letter of protest over Trump comments. We have a right and a responsibility to hold the president to a higher standard.
Despite the hurt, she said the immigrant community is a tough one.
"I just don't have to agree with it", Nakpodia said.
