African Union - Donald Trump Must Apologize For Shithole Comments
Trump tweeted the language he used at the private meeting with lawmakers to discuss immigration legislation had been "tough."
Trump's comments at one point had half of the world in awe and rage, but it has become such a part of his role as leader of this great nation to spew out such hate, polluting the minds of those who are willing to spread the word of their white knight.
Like many of Donald's stupid comments, as soon as he tweets or says something vile and disgusting, he claims to know nothing of the tweets.
Fake news right ?
When speaking of this horrible human being, some would debate for his greatness. Those I believe are the ones who share his racist beliefs.

I care less and less about USA/global circus-like politics but it's hilarious how there is an outrage because of a rude remark but people are completely ok with bombing the shit out of other countries for profit in the past few decades.
And also completely ok with the mass migration, rape, crime epidemic + culture clashes that the wars and the corruption backed, manufactured mass migration provenly caused in numerous countries which tried to help people. Pointless to even deny these. All happened and still happening yet people care about words, and angry because of what rude things celebs, politicians, random people say. As long as people focus on the show, nothing will be solved.
It would be great if people would finally start to question things...
exactly!
It's almost as if they know how to manipulate people and divert attention from the real problems. :O Imagine my shock. Also, it's good to think about the fact that politicians who actually want to do good, won't be in leading positions(doing good is not profitable these days) OR by that time they are turned onto those side who govern from the shadows. Threats can make wonders to change someone's mind. A dirt from here and there, a little money, some anonym death threats and the promising politician is instantly the evil little puppet.
Actions speak louder then words.
By calling these countries out, he is putting pressure on their leaders to improve conditions for their citizens.
Now it is time for those leaders to act, rather then take false offense.
Lmao. No doubt Donald Trump is red faced knob who spews a lot of garbage, he wasn't entirely wrong about Africa. I live in Nigeria and most of us living here are like slaves in our own country. We don't have constant electricity, poor health care, bad roads, unions and schools constantly going on strike, pointless insurgency and corrupt leaders with bloated accounts that silence every opposition. I know people who would gladly sell themselves as slaves just to leave this country.
Don't forget that Nigeria is suppose to be among the best economies in Africa, imagine how things are for them with bad economies
Thank you for the perspective @belemo.
Why do you think it's racist for someone to have a negative opinion about a country? You do realize that countries are not people right?
The African Union's mission to the U.S. in Washington, D.C. said Friday it was “frankly alarmed” and shared its “shock, dismay and outrage” following President Donald Trump’s remarks on immigration from El Salvador, Haiti and the African continent, a group he called “shithole countries.”
“The African Union strongly believes there is a huge misunderstanding of the African continent and the people by the current administration,” the organization, which comprises 55 member states, said in a statement. “There is a serious need for dialogue between the U.S. administration and the African countries.”
The statement concludes, “The African Union Mission condemns the comments in the strongest terms and demands a retraction of the comment as well as an apology to not only to the Africans but to all of people of African descent around the globe.”
he announcement comes after the Haitian government also reacted with outrage. President Jovenel Moise said: “The Haitian government condemns in the strongest terms these abhorrent and obnoxious remarks which, if proven, reflect a totally erroneous and racist view of the Haitian community and its contribution to the United States.”
Trump’s crude words also spurred condemnation from the U.N. Rupert Colville, a human rights spokesman for the organization, said: “If confirmed, these are shocking and shameful comments from the president of the United States. I’m sorry but there is no other word for this but racist.” Likewise, the Vatican described Trump’s comments as “particularly harsh and offensive.”
Initially, the White House did not deny Trump’s racially charged comments, but Trump claimed today he did not utter such disparaging words during a recent meeting at the Oval Office. He tweeted, “The language used by me at the DACA meeting was tough but this was not the language used. What was really tough was the outlandish proposal made—a big setback for DACA!”
forsure what mr president is doing is so illegal to discriminate people and other religions based on national origin under federal law
he never thinks before saying, not fit to be president of anywhere talkless of the USA
ajajaj definitely trump always with a new and worse comment
US will never make a more controvesial president like Donald Trump

I really wish that he would apologize but past actions tell us that he probably will not apologize.
