Trump said he objected to taking immigrants from “hellholes like Afghanistan, Haiti, Somalia and many other countries.” He added for emphasis that those places “are a disaster, right? Filthy, dirty, disgusting, ridden with crime.”

So far, the public has been skeptical about Trump’s economic performance. Just 33% of U.S. adults approve of Trump’s handling of the economy, according to a November survey by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.

“You don’t need 37 dolls for your daughter,” he told the crowd. “Two or three is nice.”

    I remember this. Its funny though. Its like whelp you see we were a semi shithole country and you have transitioned us to fully undeniably shithole by putting masked paramilitary and heck straight out military on the streets that grab people and rendition them to foreign gulags although we are getting our own gulags going for a more personal shithole country touch.

        Should’ve just responded with the statue of liberty quote. Those yearning to breath free air don’t come from countries that are already free.

    Many of the people living in good countries, won’t even visit the US currently. Let alone move there.

    The man literally does not think before he speaks. Why would someone want to stay in a country as bad as described? Seems like pretty good reasons to me.

    I’m don’t agree with his description of these countries, but if that’s what he truly believes… that’s why you would leave.

    Likewise, why would you move if your country was on post or better? Just cause? Nah, almost no one does that.

      He does think before he speaks - these are his thoughts. I think his real thoughts are degrees worse and the worse his dementia gets the more they spill out.
