S--HOLE COUNTRIES’ President Trump is under fire for comments on immigrants from Haiti El Salvador and African nations. According to reports Trump asked ‘Why are we having all these people from s--hole countries come here
"Yesterday Senator Durbin and I met with President Trump at the White House to discuss our bipartisan proposal on border security and immigration". Several countries called in United States ambassadors for an explanation and to remonstrate with them over the President's language.
Durbin, Graham and their allies drafted a plan that would eliminate the diversity visa lottery as Trump demanded, but would allow some immigrants now in the USA under temporary protected status, which lets people stay in the country after natural disasters or other crises in their home nations.
Trump insisted Friday that he "never said anything derogatory about Haitians other than Haiti is, obviously, a very poor and troubled country".
The Associated Press, however, reported that Trump privately defended the alleged comment, arguing it wasn't racist but "straightforward". The President and all those attending the meeting know what I said and how I feel.
However offensive he is to his own people, when Donald Trump speaks, he speaks for the United States of America, whether Americans like it or not. It was best said a long time ago, E Pluribus Unum - Out of Many, One.
"Our nation's strength and the American Dream stem from our immigrant roots and diversity. In reforming immigration we can not lose these American Ideals". But it emphasised that such a partnership should be based on mutual respect and accepted worldwide principles of respect of basic human dignity. "But the way he said it guarantees that the reaction here will be very negative". The entirety of the presidency (almost a year, now) has been quite reflective of his beliefs which are, most often, in direct opposition to general opinion.
"Why are we having all these people from shithole countries come here?"
However he later tweeted: "this was not the language used".
Anthony Scaramucci, whose brief tenure as White House communications director ended shortly after his expletive-filled comments about his administration colleagues appeared in The New Yorker, said Trump "is not a racist". Tom Cotton of Arkansas and David Perdue of Georgia, issued a joint statement, saying they did "not recall the president saying those comments specifically".
Trump denies using the term.
"The anniversary of the devastating quake 8 years ago is a day to remember the tragedy, honor the resilient people of Haiti, & affirm America's commitment to helping our neighbors", Ms Clinton tweeted.
"We view the utterances by the current American President as highly irresponsible, reprehensible and racist", the government in Gaborone added.
Trump addressed Haiti, but said nothing about his reported comments on Africa. Bill Clinton was a runner who installed a jogging track at the White House. It's outrageous that the President would have Americans believe that immigrants from certain countries are less deserving of an opportunity.
Hansdotter hoping to hold off Shiffrin and successfully defend Flachau slalom crown
Even a strong second run wasn't sufficient on Saturday. "It wasn't enough but I am happy with the race today". With a win and a second-place finish each, Shiffrin and Vlhova are now tied for the slalom points lead.

Mourinho will also pay Arsenal £30m and Sanchez's agent £5m - fees Guardiola refuses to cough up. So he wants to fight as well for the Premier League, that's normal when you are at that level".

In the first election conducted in 2015, he lost to the People's Democratic Party, PDP candidate, Uche Ekwunife. This paves the way for the re-run election holding today in the district.
Many Africans reminded the United States of its historic role in the continent's woes.
Where someone is born will never determine whether they deserve dignity. The White House team of doctors did not indicate what tests they performed during the exam or whether Mr Trump, 71, was taking medications.
Parsing the President's comments does little to mitigate their damage, critics said.
US Senator Lindsey Graham, Republican of SC, said in a statement that he had confronted Trump during the meeting, but he did not publicly condemn his remarks.
A Haitian church in Rockville, Maryland, held a prayer vigil Saturday after President Donald Trump allegedly made obscene comments about Haiti and African countries. "Beautiful, hardworking people. We have diamonds, gold, iron, cobalt, uranium, copper, bauxite, silver, petroleum, cocoa, coffee, tea etc".
"We have seven days and the clock is ticking. There is a serious need for dialogue between the USA administration and the African countries", said the AU statement.
To no surprise, the President started tweeting this morning, denying that he used those words.
Problems these experts say they have observed include rambling speech; episodes of slurred speech; failure to recognize old friends; frequent repetition of the same concepts; decreased fine motor coordination; difficulties reading, listening and comprehending; suspect judgment, planning, problem solving and impulse control; and markedly declining vocabulary in recent years, with overreliance on superlatives, according to the letter. "Africa and the black race deserve the respect and consideration of all", Sall added.
"We had a meeting", Graham said from Capitol Hill, "and I will tell you that I'm hopeful".
"It is thanks to our African leaders that we are insulted that way", she said. The choice is yours: denounce President Trump and work on legislation that reflects the values of our country, like the Dream Act, or go down as enablers of a racist regime.
But some comics stopped joking.
"Actually, throughout my life, my two greatest assets have been mental stability and being, like, really smart", Trump said in a tweetstorm earlier this week. "You just can't believe this is the guy running our country".
Clinton piled on, bringing up the anniversary of the devastating natural disaster that struck Haiti in 2010 and using it as a club to hit at her former rival. A person familiar with talk at the meeting told CNN that Trump also said: "Why do we need more Haitians?"
