Can someone explain to me what exactly is racist about this comment?
Trump is 100% right, those countries are shitholes, and we should question why we should bring in people from shithole countries.
Does the left just completely ignore reality? Do their feelings override all logic and reason? Do they pretend things like this are racist just so they can attack their enemies?

He should've said third world country. Same meaning, different presentation.
Parker Edwards
all this stuff is pretty damn obvious to anyone paying attention.
Is it racist to require voter ID? left says: YES.
not racist to require ID for anything else though
Bentley Edwards
It's not. If he would've said shitskin people that would've been racist. Saying that shit countries are shit is not racist. Liberals are retarded useless faggots what do you expect from them?
Elijah Rogers
In a world where literally everything and anything is racist including fucking trees that stop golf balls from hitting niggers homes the word racist loses all meaning
He never said it, these are shill posts to try and convince us that he actually did.
Joseph Lee
It's not, he is right.
Levi Nguyen
>He never said it This is true but we live in a world of fake news and accusations with anonymous sources are treated are gospel There is no escaping until we round up the “journalists” and impale them on spikes Until then I gues we all can just enjoy the ride

Defining a country where a group of ethnically similar people come from as a shithole is denigrating the country and the people. Hence it's racist.
Defending stupidity is never a smart move.
Isaac Hernandez
Why has nobody proven he said it yet? you faggot
Josiah Scott
That is a possibility (that he didn't say it), but it sounds like you don't want it to be true that he said it.
I hope he said it. I wish he had said shitskins like suggested. Imagine the media meltdown? But I understand Trump has to keep his power level from showing.
Lucas Bell
Doesn't matter whether Drumpf said it or not. The fact is, these are shitholes no matter what he said, and the average person knows it. Drumpf's enemies are once again doing his bidding, pushing his memes for him. This fucker is a genius.
Carson Flores
Its not racist. Liberals are literally hallucinating as if he said something else.
Tyler Lewis
>calling geographical location a shithole >DAS RAYCIST
you need to kill yourself immediately
Jayden Bennett
>he wonders why recordings of govt. meetings (if they exist) aren't simply available for any Tom, Dick or Harry to peruse.... >or why participants of those meetings who at best could lose their jobs or at worst face legal action are not prepared to leak any evidence (if it exists)
He was talking about countries - which denotes more than just a geographical location. You should heed your own advice.
Jackson Fisher
>Can someone explain to me what exactly is racist about this comment?
Because shitholes consist primarily of negroid's.
Jack Ward
because it's racist to say they're invaluable! These shithole countries have people as equally important than people from norway.
And the my left friends said something about equating it to the Japanese Internment Camps
Josiah Ortiz
ethnicity =/= race, dingo fucker. also, places like 'haiti' and 'africa' do not refer to race, they refer to place of origin.
0/10 effort, retard. make an actual argument against the ALLEGED comment or fuck off back to your safe space.
Lincoln James
The part where we question why we should bring in people from shitholes is supposed to be racist. You're judging individuals for the environment they come from. You're assuming they possess less merit because the country they come from sucks. And because all the shit countries are black and brown, that's racist.
Except for the fact that our immigration system is not merit based, and lottery visas and chain migration mean we go out of our way to take in people from shithole countries with no qualifications. That does not make our country better, it serves only to enrich people from shitholes at the expense of the American taxpayer. Questioning why we bother to do that is not racist.
Isaac Sullivan
>ethnicity =/= race So if I'm Haitian I'm not from Haiti?
>make an actual argument against the ALLEGED comment or fuck off back to your safe space. Here to point out the dichotomy of OP's attitude. Don't need to argue against the premise as it's immaterial. See my points to other anons about the veracity.
>plz valid8 my argument m80
Jack Wilson
>Asking for the opinions of the leftis on a website controlled by rightiest
Are you really looking for arguments or just for confirmation of your political views?
Bentley Reyes
>Does the left just completely ignore reality?
Nope, it's just a grossly unprofessional way to act and speak as a president.
Brody Thompson
doubling down on incorrect definitions is not an argument, moron. you're totally embarrassing yourself, little man. try harder.
Jackson Phillips
Is your race “Haitian”? I’ve never met someone of Haitian race before. That’s a new one.
Ryan Jenkins
He never called the people shit, but obviously his point is that 3rd world shithole countries produce poor quality people. You can't deny that.
What the fuck does Jamal and Jeniqua from Haitian have to offer the U.S.? Where in the constitution does it say we have to bring in a certain quota of shitty migrants who are going to suck on the governments teat for welfare?
We are not the worlds babysitter. If we help people from these countries, it should be in the form of helping them with their infrastructure and education, so that they can eventually help themselves without our aid. But in my opinion we should not even be doing that. We should close our fucking borders permanently.
Joseph Brown
If the Clinton Foundation has been pumping money into Haiti for years, how can it be a shithole?
>WHERE'D THAT MONEY GO? >WHERE'D THAT MONEY GO? >WHERE'D THAT MONEY GO?
Jaxon Foster
They think that because he used people's country of origin as a qualifier for them entering the country rather than their individual qualities, he believes there is something intrinsic to the races of people in those countries that makes them bad immigrants. He's fine with people coming from Norway for example because white Scandinavians are just intrinsically better than black people without having to know anything else about them.
To them he should have said something like "why are we letting people with bad qualities in" or some shit because then everyone is judged as an individual without preconceived notions about their origin. I think all this is completely stupid and naive by the way, but that seems to be the reasoning they use.
Cameron Jones
The memeflag faggot you're responding to is technically correct although he framed his statements poorly. African isn't a race, it's an umbrella term for all sup-races which come from Africa, congoid, negroid, capoid, etc, Africa is fucking huge and until only the last 2000-3000 years people developed more or less in total isolation from one another, there are a few dozen distinct Y chromosome haplogroups which derive from Negroid-Africanid
Wyatt Sanchez
It isn't racist. The left tries to make it racist by inferring that the only person that could say such a thing is someone who hates black people.
Charles Bell
Haitian isn't a race numbnuts
Grayson Cooper
Judging some ones character and ability to contribute to a society based on where they are born is racist.
Those countries are indeed shit holes, but Why the Fuck would you rather want some one from norway in your country?
If you cant fucking make it in norway of all places, you arent a very great contender for immigration.
Levi Nelson
>He uses strawman arguments
Hudson Edwards
There is no controlled by here faggot Nobody is censoring peoples views here you cock smoker
Isaac Fisher
Can you prove he said it?
Ayden Mitchell
Most Americans if you look back in lineage were migrants because their country was a shithole. jews leaving Russia at the turn of the century? yup they were leaving a shithole. Irish leaving Ireland? also shithole. Most Chinese who left their country left because it was a shithole for them. People don't leave their countries if their country is successful, they leave their countries because their countries fucking suck.
Aiden Roberts
I pray that he said it. Someone fucking needs to. American polotician attacks her own citizens calling them deplorable and no one says anything. American politician calls shithole countries shitholes and everyone freaks out. I hope he said it.
Nathaniel Fisher
Nothing racist about calling a shithole a shithole. I use the same word to describe West Virginia and Kentucky.
Gavin Fisher
Trump did not say this comment. It was a misquote.
Cooper James
If their lies about this are taken as gospel, what other lies have they told that are taken as absolute fact?
Jose Sanders
Their is a correlation between shithole countries and skin color, specifically blacks.
Thus, just as pointing out the higher violent crime rate of blacks in this country is racist - pointing out that some countries are shitholes (and usually blakc) is also racist.
Nathan Stewart
> (OP) >The part where we question why we should bring in people from shitholes is supposed to be racist. You're judging individuals for the environment they come from. People are a product of their environment, but their environment is also a product of its people. >You're assuming they possess less merit because the country they come from sucks. You're assuming that's what we are assuming. Why is it that you have to use countries like Nigeria as proof instead of Zimbabwe?
Jack Butler
Noice ad hominem. Is that cause you had no counter argument or just because you lack the mental acuity to understand what's being said?
Generalising about race (oriental, Caucasian or Negro) is a bit pointless as ther is no "true" race of either 3. It's a bit like calling the Ainu people Japanese - technically it's true but realistically they're a totally different people.
>You can't deny that. I haven't and I don't. I just like watching /r_td refugees trying to go the mental gymnastics to justify some of the stupidity the comes out of the Orange Oligarchs mouth.
I did deliberately avoid addressing that point breddy much due to what you've said. You put it more succinctly than I could have.
Connor Jones
I think shitholegate was a redpill for some people. the media's reaction was unlike anything I've seen. they were completely unhinged.
Christopher Barnes
False. There's a correlation between shitholes and U.S. government funded socialist tyrannies.
Daniel Bailey
i hope he did say it, it's the truth
William Gonzalez
The Left prays on the easily manipulated. Part of their propaganda campaign is trying to make the public believe the radical Leftist ideas have great public support. While many are still manipulated, more and more people are becoming aware of just how evil and disgusting the Left really is.
William Robinson
projection is not an argument, squirt. you've got absolutely nothing and you know it. how mad does it make you that you've been totally and effortlessly exposed as a low functioning retard?
Adrian Watson
soy boys be outraged
Zachary Taylor
It's kind fo like calling Islamaphobes "racist;" in a vacuum it really wouldn't be, but we totally notice you guys only noticing shitty living conditions and religious fundamentalism when it's brown people. The fact that they'll draw attention to shit like that while purposefully omitting anything that could make a white anything look bad.
Requiring context to be removed for their talking points to make sense is a key part of conservative thinking. They try to set up these black or white scenarios with no room for grey, because that grey is where their downfall lies on pretty much every topic.
Jordan Nelson
Many Americans (most of us, actually) have roots in countries that used to be called shitholes.
Andrew Morris
True. Let’s stop funding them.
Nathan Gutierrez
>and we should question why we should bring in people from shithole countries.
Did anyone answer his question? Anyone?
Gavin Rogers
Ya, just about every white person with a brain would consider most black countries shit holes. To many butt-hurt libtards, and fragile millenafagz.
We need to encourage these people to move to these shit hole countries and see how many minutes they last.
Christopher Hughes
Fuck off leaf. You really think he's the first president to utter the word "shithole" in a closed door meeting.
You're literally suspending reality so that you can hate the guy some more.
Aaron Johnson
Go screw, Mackerel Eater. Most of our immigrant ancestors left their homes because they were shitholes, and when they got here they had to sink or swim, there was no welfare tit for them to suckle.
Brody Nelson
