        Reminder that Donald Trumps mother was an illegal immigrant from Scotland, which is fitting as all white Americans are descended from illegal immigrants. African Americans arent descended from illegal immigrants however, as they were brought to America by force.

        Because he's talking about the mess caused by bombings and the ousting of Gaddafi, he was not saying it's a shithole just because it's in Africa. Unlike Trump

        the big difference is,when they got on the boat the women made sure her children were very clean (no lice)& were made ready for inspection they would all get once they arrived on Ellis Island where they had to pass a mental & physical exam;if failed either one they were sent back

        Uh no. For starters, just lice were not a reason not to be admitted. But more important, you do know that people were coming to the States for hundereds of years before Ellis Island was set up? Or do you think Native Americans set it up?

        And Trump admistration is turning America into a “Sh- -hole” and the laughing stock of the world. Of course, he can’t remember where he came from because he is mentally incapacitated.
