Durbin wants to import more poor people.
Trump said no.
Durbin takes to the press about what was said in a private meeting to get revenge because it's "cool" to put Trump in a bad light.
Take a look at those pictures of current Haiti today. Who the heck would go there.
It IS a sh*thole. $13 billion donated to fix a small country and less than 1% got spent locally.
We don't need to import more Haitians. Find out who has that money sitting in their bank accounts and dole it out to fix Haiti.
Interesting that the Bezos Post is presenting this. Good for them. I prefer the less provacative term "Dumps".
But correct, it's used to describe Cities and areas in the US....and is certainly NOT racist.
(& did you guys see that Durbin & some of the media are actually was trying to say that the term chain migration is "racist". Have these guys completely lost their minds?)
Lies and hypocrisy are the tradecraft of politicians.
The only reason I brought it up is to offer thought as to how the conversation has been diverted to racism and away from DACA SOLLUTION.
Its the reoccurring theme, most often use, that keeps any progress from being made on anything or everything.
And now it turn s out that Trump never called Haiti or other countries "sh*thole countries" at all. That was a lie told by Dick Durbin (D-MI). Nobody else at the meeting, Democrats and Republicans alike, can recall ever hearing that phrase.
Democrats apparently just can't tell the truth about Trump or what he does or says, because that would defeat their agenda of hating him and trying to destroy him, whatever it takes.
GOP senator: 'Gross misrepresentation' of Trump's remarks
Georgia Republican Sen. David Perdue said Sunday that President Donald Trump did not use the phrase "****hole countries" during a meeting with lawmakers on immigration reform last week. "I'm telling you he did not use that word, George, and I'm telling you it's a gross misrepresentation," Perdue told moderator George Stephanopoulos on ABC's "This Week."
During an Oval Office meeting on immigration Thursday, Trump expressed frustration with people coming to the United States from "****hole countries," sources told CNN.
Trump has denied making the vulgar remarks, tweeting Friday: "The language used by me at the DACA meeting was tough, but this was not the language used. What was really tough was the outlandish proposal made - a big setback for DACA!"
Perdue on Sunday accused Illinois Democratic Sen. Dick Durbin of spreading false information about what Trump said at the meeting and added that Trump has been misrepresented.
Durbin said Trump used "hate-filled, vile and racist" language in the meeting, according to the Chicago Tribune.
Sen. Tim Scott told The Post and Courier that fellow South Carolina Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, who was at the meeting, told him the reported comments are "basically accurate."
Perdue and Arkansas Republican Sen. Tom Cotton said in a Friday statement that they did not recall the "****hole" comment, and like Perdue, Cotton on Sunday accused Durbin of misrepresenting Trump's comments.
"I didn't hear it, and I was sitting no further away from Donald Trump than Dick Durbin was," Cotton said on CBS's "Face the Nation."
Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen said on "Fox News Sunday" that she did not recall Trump saying "that exact phrase."

Understandable, and not difficult to do.
You've head the joke, "How can you tell when a lawyer is lying?" "His lips are moving."
The Democrats are extending that to all of them, not just the lawyers.
and why not, you afraid it might hurt their feeling.
most people are upset because he not political correct. He called a ****hole a ****hole.
now the question is, who in that meeting got their panties in a wad and went and told the media.
guess what, trump said a bad word, he called a worthless piece of wasteland, a ****hole. There was probably a confidentiality agreement to the meeting , so another leak by a untrusted associate
If a conservative is unfairly called an ahole would he claim that the accuser is being, 'politically correct"?!?
So sad conservatives lack the ability to distinguish between being politically correct and acting like a complete jack___...
Really funny that Cotton and Perdue are saying he said ****house and not ****hole. POTUS is an idiot and cannot work well with others.
