The New York Post reports:
President Trump on Friday denied using the words “shithole countries” to describe Haiti and African nations during a meeting with lawmakers in the White House.
Trump used the slur during an immigration meeting with lawmakers Thursday, according to a report by the Washington Post.
“Why are we having all these people from shithole countries come here?” the president said, according to the paper, which cited “two people briefed on the meeting.”
Politicians at the bipartisan Oval Office meeting were left flabbergasted by the remark, according to the paper.
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!

Sadly, Democrats want to stop paying our troops and government workers in order to give a sweetheart deal, not a fair deal, for DACA. Take care of our Military, and our Country, FIRST!
