    It's telling how comfortable you are with racial slurs, just as long as they happen to be against white people.

    There are plenty of non-whites who are trailer trash. Not a racial slur against whites.

    So you think whites are willing to go back to standard of living that existed in this country prior to welfare?

    I don't deny that racists may appreciate that, but you can be against migration from some countries without being racist. Furthermore, race is something, culture and religion something else, considering that the culture or religion of some countries is not compatible or desirable is not racist neither.

    The main problem of Trump is that he don't use fine and delicate words, but the harsh truth is here : some countries are a mess and importating the inhabitant of this country most of the time don't improve the situation for anybody.
    You can see that either in Europe or USA.

    Not wanting some people in your country is not hating them or being racist, it's just not appreciating them, which is not a crime or hatred.

    Yeah, your open anti-Semitism (tell again how you aren't a Nazi?) is definitely better.

    At least I'm willing to admit I'm white. You can't even do that for your own ethnicity.

    “Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country ...”

    “S**t hole”.

    Guess it highlights the difference between myself and the OP.

    It means there are parts of Alabama you won't move to. Trump didn't specify, he just said Africa/Haiti.

    To be fair, there are a lot of people who could pass for Haitians and Africans in Alabama.

    It really does, just not in the way you are thinking.

    I've said multiple times on this forum that I am also white. I'm not Jewish, my family is entirely Scots-Irish on one said and German on the other. But I'm not a white supremacist like you.

    There are certainly some nice places in Africa. Haiti still hasn't recovered from being totally levelled in 2010, and then getting hit with massive hurricanes in last few years.

    Ok, let me be specific. It was a shithole and mostly white in 1994. I don't have to look up what I experienced in real life.

    I've been to many poor white areas that aren't shitholes. Nothing like what you'd find in poor black or Hispanic areas. Poor white areas are certainly much safer for me, as a white man, to walk around in. That's probably true for other races, as well.

    Although I am sure trump said these words, trump tweeted this morning that he didn't use these words--So,perhaps the lesson here is to wait a couple hours before you go defending this moron as he is likely to not only in a blink of an eye, make a fool out of himself but you also----just saying----

    Take just the Haitians who had the good luck of being educated in Jesuit schools. Those folks speak far better English than I do and would be a benefit to the USA. It is a pleasure to hear them speak and their general knowledge is remarkable. Same with Jamaica. Those who had the good luck of attending Jesuit schools are absolutely outstanding and a pleasure to hear speak.

    Won't make the slightest difference to me. I'm hoping he did actually say that, but even if he didn't, the phrase is now out there. People are talking about it. Mission accomplished for my side.

    Who are you kidding? You know Trump said it. He got scolded by Huckabee for making her job harder. Trump likely said it and we love his frankness. :grin:

    They are not the POTUS! And they are not the person making policy decisions based on his racist beliefs----One thing in my opinion that I think you are remiss about is that when he makes these kind of statements he is representing that this is how the whole of the United States think---That could not be further from the truth----

    When a military man says it's a shathole take that as literal, unvarnished truth.

    Obama didn't represent how the whole of the United States thought. Didn't bother you at all. So what?

    Never give liberals that level of trust.

    I think Obama did represent the whole United States, just like Trump represents the whole United States, because elections have consequences.

    So when Obama was on TV telling the world that business owners didn't build their own businesses, that Islam was a beautiful and peaceful religion, that DACA dreamers deserved amnesty, he was representing you?
