Coss Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 The Haitian government called the remarks racist. The president of Senegal tweeted that he was shocked. South Africa’s governing party said the comments were “extremely offensive.†The African Union said it was “frankly alarmed.†“The Haitian government condemns in the strongest terms these abhorrent and obnoxious remarks which, if proven, reflect a totally erroneous and racist view of the Haitian community and its contribution to the United States,†the government said, while summoning the top American diplomat in the country for clarification, and possible an apology. El Salvador’s government sent a formal letter of protest. Earlier in the week, the United States announced it was rescinding Temporary Protected Status for about 200,000 Salvadorans living in the United States. In Brussels, a European Union lawmaker, Gianni Pittella of Italy, told The Associated Press that Mr. Trump “had forgotten to engage his brain before talking.†Vicente Fox, a former president of Mexico who has frequently clashed with Mr. Trump, demanded of him: “With what authority do you proclaim who’s welcome in America and who’s not.†(He also suggested that Mr. Trump’s vulgar word was better used to describe his own mouth.) Michaëlle Jean, a former governor general of Canada who is now the secretary general of Francophonie, which comprises 84 states that share French as a language, called the comments “disturbing.†“It is such an insult before humanity,†Ms. Jean, a native of Haiti, who after the earthquake became Unesco’s special envoy to the Caribbean nation, told the Canadian Press. “For the first representative of the United States of America to speak in such a manner is quite troubling and offensive.†“I am shocked by President Trump’s comments on Haiti and Africa,†President Macky Sall of Senegal wrote on Twitter. “I reject them and condemn them vigorously. Africa and black people deserve the respect and consideration of all.†On Saturday morning Ghana’s president weighed in, tweeting that Mr. Trump’s language was “extremely unfortunate.†“We are certainly not a ‘shithole country,’ †wrote the president, Nana Afuko-Addo. “We will not accept such insults, even from the leader of a friendly country, no matter how powerful.†Botswana’s government issued a statement calling the president’s remark “highly irresponsible, reprehensible and racist.†The Haitian ambassador to the United States, Paul G. Altidor, told NPR on Friday it was “quite regrettable that we’re not discussing about the earthquake and how Haiti is moving forward.†“Unfortunately, we fear, once again Haiti finds itself in the midst of a very negative narrative in the U.S., and we are hoping this conversation will be an opportunity to address the Haiti conversation in the U.S. once and for all,†he said. Vincent Omondi, who lives in the sprawling working-class neighborhood of Kibera, in Nairobi, pointed out that the United States had a long relationship with people from the countries Mr. Trump criticized. “The USA,†he wrote in a Facebook message, “was partly built by slaves from the ‘shithole’ countries.†___ Yes folks, those supposedly 'harmless' comments from the very stable genius/best athlete, have a real effect, on how the world views the USA.

Flashermac Posted January 14, 2018 Report Share Posted January 14, 2018 Mexicans are fine ... but the government sucks big time. p.s. I grew up near the border, back before drug gangs were killing people and hanging their bodies from the bridges etc. It was a fun place to visit ... and there were very few illegals trying to slip into the USA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cavanami Posted January 14, 2018 Report Share Posted January 14, 2018 While the weak minded are so upset with the false story of President Trump being involved with a pron star...the lame stream media failed, once again, to inform people of this... Today I finally dove into the 13 people named on Trump's EO from Dec. 21. I wanted to wait until more came out and the IG Report release day approached. Any day now it should be released, but before that happens, here's the dirt I could dig up on Trump's infamous 13. Link to sources used: https://docs.google.com/document/d/e/...
