    “shithole” is definitely a term I’ve heard elites use to describe socioeconomically dilapidated areas of the United States

        There’s no “defense” of Trump here. Some of us are able to think multiple thoughts at once.

        The downtrodden places have often brought us the best culture. If you're using Memphis as an example.

        Positive they alternate it for the always pejorative "fly-over" country.

        NCL is starting a 2 week cruise to Haiti. To attract elites they’re calling it “The Cruise to The Land of Gender Neutral Bathrooms”. It includes the retired comedians tour Kathy Griffin and Chelsea Handler.

        I doubt any of these sanctimonious blowhards that advocate for illegal immigration live in the same neighborhoods and compete with them for wages, or pay their school taxes,

        Dude, Trump said he didn't want the ppl from "shitholes" coming here. The implication is that it's those ppl who made it a shithole based on inherent qualities. That's racism.

        "shithole" is not what was wrong with the president's remarks disparaging Haitians and Africans vis-a-vis northern Europeans. It's something else...
