After all the ethnic study classes here, imagine the disappointment returning home to Haiti, and having no white people to blame for everything.
You really don't see the issue with what he said? Really?

You miss the point entirely. Seriously.

Oh, please.

If you want to talk about "lowering the bar," look no further than the corruption in the Obama Administration. Nothing was off limits, even using the IRS against private citizens. Obama thought nothing of bringing the heavy hand of government down on his opponents, including spying on the Trump Campaign in the final days of his Administration.

And you think it is okay for the president of the United States to make statements like this? I guess his racism cannot help but leak from his pores.

Trump supporters need to admit that every single thing they complain about - Trump DOES. And the issue Trump seems to have is people with darker skin. Politically, Norway is far to the left of the GOP. If they want a country like Norway, let's do it.
The Trump organization hired a subcontractor, that subcontractor is the one who hired those workers, and, that subcontractor is the one who stiffed them on their pay. The top name on their suit was the subcontractor, they included the Trump organization in on the suit since the subcontractor worked for that org.

You guys act all outraged about his remarks. ( that are un-confirmed by wp without a reputable source) . Please someone answer the question he asked. Why do we bring in un-educated immigrants from the third world? What benefit does it bring here? Please enlighten me. 95% of all other countries in the world have immigrants that actually bring something they are looking for . Im not saying that we don't, but I've seen stories of Indian exchange students with masters degrees that are forced to go back to India because they were only here for school but then we give a green card to someone that speaks 0 english and relies on government housing and benefits. Its total nonsense that needs to END.

As for "dragging the country down," Obama set race relations back at least 50 years if not more.
Whatever you think Clinton or Obama did, they were not ignorant enough to make statements like this. And BTW, I never voted for Clinton. Talk about dividing the country with racist statements.
