    Seems like excitement over Trump's profanity is overshadowing the fact that he wondered why the US opens its arms to immigrants fleeing danger (like waves of European immigrants for generations) or who are simply regular folks looking for a better life who don't come from Europe.

        No. He wondered why they couldn't come from Norway instead. His intent was clear and that's why drives the moronic policy.

        My point is this is about people (nonwhite people) not the condition of other countries.

        You didn’t say that very clearly Jon. I know you’re a good guy. Be forthright- Trump is a racist!

        there's no overshadowing what is all of a piece. He wondered why US does this for nonwhites. He'd be happy to do it for Norway.

        I think you’re wrong. Most people are being forthright on the President being a racist. In fact your tweet beats around the bush tbh.

        I think we get it. I don't think the use of "shit hole" is what anyone is thinking about.

        People are reluctant to call out blatant racism/prejudice/discrimination. Many believe if he didn’t say the n word, then he’s “not racist”. They rather avoid the actual issue & focus on the bad word. Racism is uncomfortable and most don’t want to participate in the conversations

        because we all knew he was a white supremacist but having him outright call other countries 'shitholes' like the racist grandpa he is is funny. This isn't shocking news to anyone who follows the news.
