Discussion: Republicans Aghast At Trump's Reported 'Shithole Countries' Comment

Gov. Bullethead translated: “Shhhh, Donnie. We only talk that way at Mar-a-lago — and never in front of any Democrats. I gotta get elected in state full of shithole immigrants!”

Hey Oren, Mia, Rickster, and the rest of you GOP cowards, maybe you wanna stand up to the Dotard-in-chief rather than sucking his flaccid unit each and every day. I’ll believe your faux “outrage” as soon as you actually do something about it.

Fuck you and your pathetic anti-American fear-mongering party.

Curbelo’s description of the TPS immigrants as humble and hard-working was powerful because it reminded us that those are precisely the things that the Feebleminded Fraudster is not.

Right. As if they didn’t know he was a racist by now, and that he never apologizes.

Though it was fun to read Gov. Scott’s response - attempting to thread some kind of needle as he preps to run for the senate. Trying to condemn the sentiment (saying or thinking this way is bad), while giving an out to Trump “as reported, if said”. Which is worse to alienate? A petty petulant president and his (shrinking) base of devotees, or actual constituents. Enjoy your pretzel twisting, gov.

And Steve King - never missing an opportunity to brandish your racism with glee. Go Kick Rocks, and then climb beneath them.

They’re so aghast that now they’ll only vote with him 99.9% of the time.

And here I thought spelling out “racist asshole” took more, and slightly different, letters than “Steve King.”

Unless you’re saying “He must resign or be removed” you are in essence saying “We can live with it”

I would not say several Republicans that live in Florida with a large Haitian population and one Republican who is Haitian is much of condemnation from the Party. As the saying goes not all Republicans are racists, but all racists are Republicans.

Still a disingenuous lying sack of shit.
That’s My “President Shithole”

While you’re at it, how about condemning the racist policies of the GOP?

Steve King certainly is reliable.

You understand that Puerto Ricans are American Citizens so Trump can’t even sick ICE on them. It must give “President Shithole” nightmares.

You shall treat the alien who resides with you no differently than the native born among you; have the same love for him as for yourself; for you were once aliens on the land of Egypt. Lev. 19:34.

My guess he has no self respect.

The title is misleading. It should read “Five Republicans Who are Not in Leadership Denounce Trump’s Shithole Comment.”

The fifth is Ileanna Ross Lehtinen, also from Florida. So three of the denouncers are from Florida, with a large Haitian population; Mia Love is of Haitian descent; and Orrin Hatch has remembered something.

Nothing from GOP leadership… How long Republicans will let the Lyin’ King diminish their party is the question of the year.

I’m getting so friggin’ sick and tired of hearing about Trump’s “reported” remarks. WTF?! “Reported”? Why the hell isn’t every word he says either audio or video recorded? How in god’s name, in this day of ubiquitous technology, is it possible that we have to rely on his “reported” remarks? Roll the tape, god damn it. If it isn’t on tape, Trump will always deny it.

No, they are not aghast. They are faking this reaction. They are a party of a thousand litle Eichmanns; petty functionaries who keep a death regime going.

They are a party of racists, neo Nazis and scumbags.

This should be repeated loudly and often. Preferrably in streets jammed with massive numbers of people but, yeah, that’s not going to happen either.

Rep. Mia Love (R-UT), who is of Haitian descent, said that Trump’s remarks were “unkind, divisive, elitist, and fly in the face of [our] nation’s values.”

She forgot “stupid.”

'Republicans aghast"
Translation: “GOP tries to find a way to shovel out from the 300-ton pile of ebola-ridden elephant dung that Donald Trump had dumped upon their well-deserving pointy little heads.”

She also said her immigrant parents never took any help from the US government after coming here.
Yeah. As if. Just like Ayn Rand acolyte and liar Paul Ryan’s family never took government largesse, and he was only from that shithole of Wisconsin! Not even one of the brown people shitholes!
