I would say that there has been a lot said in closed door meetings between politicians that has been worse. The difference now is that some of the politicians run and tell the media what was said, because they are like Luther and LG..
He said what I was thinking. I don't need rallying.Maybe the president should refrain from referring to other country's as "shtholes?"
Think it if you want, don't say it.
It makes me wonder if this whole thing is a ploy to rally his base. They seem to be impressed by low brow *******ry like this.
The Dow surpassed 25,000. Taxes are getting cut. People are getting raises and bomuses. Unemployment is dropping. Food stamp usage is down by the millions. Minorities are seeing record unemployment.
Wtf are you talking about?
He shouldn't have said it, but I don't really care one way or the other. I worry about what he does. Talking about immigration behind closed doors really means zilch.Maybe the president should refrain from referring to other country's as "shtholes?"

I wonder how many Haitians septic will take in to live w/him since he wants them here.
How many Haitians septic will you bring into your house to live rent free & mooch off your groceries since you love & want them here so much?
Be honest now. How many can live in your house so you can be happy?
Speaking of ****holes
Chris Arnade, an independent journalist who has spent the past four years traveling the US to document the opioid crisis, was one of the few who weren't surprised. After traveling tens of thousands of miles in working-class communities along the Rust Belt and elsewhere, he found one constant.
"Wherever I saw strong addiction and strong drug use," Arnade told Business Insider, he saw support for Trump.
Official voting data has suggested a similar correlation. Since the November 8 election, Shannon Monnat, a rural sociologist and demographer at Pennsylvania State University, has dug into the results. She found that counties that voted more heavily for Trump than expected were closely correlated with counties that experienced high rates of death caused by drugs, alcohol, and suicide.
Two other factors were strongly correlated with Trump "overperformance," Monnat found: the percentage of white voters in the county and its ranking on Monnat's "economic distress index." The index, which Monnat has used in her research for years, combines the percentages of people who are in poverty, unemployed, disabled, in single-parent families, living on public assistance, or living without health insurance.
So a person can come out and talk about killing the president or blowing up the WH and thats cool.
But Trump speaking his mind about a truly terrible country is bad?
I would have never picked you for a SJW.
