‘Sh!thole’ Controversy Shows Perils of Negotiating with Democrats

President Donald Trump denies having used the term “sh*thole countries” to refer to Haiti, El Salvador, and some African nations in a negotiation about immigration policy with Senators from both parties in the Oval Office on Thursday.

And CNN’s Jake Tapper, of all people, says that his source backs the president’s claim, at least regarding Haiti, over the story told second-hand to the Washington Post (probably by one of the Democrats in the meeting).

But regardless of whether Trump used the phrase, and how, he has learned the hard way about the danger of even talking to the political opposition in the poisonous climate that Democrats and the mainstream media have created in Washington. Both are determined to bring down the Trump presidency and to nullify the 2016 election.

And for Democrats, the opportunity to do so was more important than the chance to help “undocumented” immigrants.

Speaking of lack of GUTS - Durbin better damn sure be accurate that the President did say sh*thole, because if it turns out he didn't - in the context of the situation, the Party of Donks will not be able to utter another word until elections.

All this effort by the Donks to find anything to blame the President could be better used to PASS a budget as well as other bills that sit, collecting dust.

DO YOUR JOB CONGRESS!

Durbin is and always has been obnoxious, just like Pelosi.

That's it, slam the tellers of the truth. These 'third world developing nations' ARE mostly what Trump described. They are dens of corruption who accept foreign aide and then steal it and let their people starve. They know nothing of hygiene and if they do its introduced by envoys of other countries and as soon as they leave so does this education.
If I recall correctly, the Revolutionary War started us on the journey to the future so this Nation could be successful and enduring. If you want to make real mayonnaise then you have to crack a few eggs. These residents and nationals of these (expletive) nations must be satisfied because I having been a U.S.Army soldier have seen first hand these foreign "Edens" have to offer. Please tell me how these people who live in this squalor are a benefit to this Nation. They come for 'THE GIVEAWAY' the Democrats are sure to trade for a vote and that's ALL. If you visit them I suggest strongly you DON'T drink the water.
The President is spot on and as usual the Democrats are a power hungry driven group that make arguments that are so silly they shouldn't be dignified with any response other than a roll of the eyes. Bob Aswell....Not Fooled

Durbin has to be the complete and total example of a cry baby I’ve ever heard of. Not to mention a sneaky leaking weasel. The dems have absolutely no shame whatsoever.

Bob is a complete ASSwell. You obviously have never been to Appalachia or Mississippi. Pretty much the same as the countries you describe.

One word makes a big difference. Remember when Gov. Donald Shaffer called the eastern shore a $hit house? He was a Democrat and it did make the Daily Times.

Anyone remember the word that Willie Donald Schaefer used to refer to the Eastern Shore back in the day.

Congrats being in the army. I am a current marine. Army is for wash outs who cant pass a physical. Guess what? I've been to most of your so called "expletive" countries. The ironic part is I'm treated better in uniform by them than I am out of uniform in my own damn country. You are a stain on democracy.
