So how and why is President Trump denying the remarks that he reportedly said? I have some clarifying reporting from a source familiar the meeting. I want to start by saying that this does not make what he said any more acceptable, but it might shed some light on it all. 1/

Take the Haitians out except the ones he got guest worker permits for to work at Mar-a-Lago, right?

Thank you for this, Jake. Quick question... were you told the context of the Norwegian comment and where it fitted into things? The contrast made is potentially significant, no?

FWIW, because Haitians with TPS are definitionally living in the US, “take them out” of the deal and “take them out” of the country are functionally synonymous.

I think you are providing cover for the dotard, sir. I do believe he was trying to say DEPORT THEM.

This sentence is as appalling as the "shithole" comment. This only reaffirms what we know.

My mom was cared for in her last years by
#Haitian staff, they fed her, bathed her, provided medical care, and had the patience&kindness of saints when dementia made her a monster. When the earthquake hit they ALL lost family members but never missed a day.
