Trump's potty mouth

[reedak]

1. If you want to look for a cesspool in the White House, you will find it in the potty mouth of the fellow who happened to stray into it in the wake of a controversial election.

The following are excerpts from Maggie Haberman's April 29, 2011 article headlined "Trump drops F-bombs on Vegas crowd".

(Begin excerpts)
Donald Trump on Thursday dropped a barrage of F-bombs at a massive Las Vegas rally where he blasted the president repeatedly and slammed politicians as "blood s——rs.”

"Our leaders are stupid, they are stupid people," he said to the crowd of about 1,000 people at the reception at the Treasure Island casino along the Las Vegas Strip, sponsored by the Clark County GOP and three women's groups. "It's just very, very sad."

On the nation's involvement in military actions overseas, he said: "We build a school, we build a road, they blow up the school, we build another school, we build another road they blow them up, we build again, in the meantime we can't get a f——ing school in Brooklyn."

On how to deal with OPEC to lower oil prices?

"We have nobody in Washington that sits back and said, you're not going to raise that f—-ing price," Trump said, according to KTNV in Nevada.

And how he'd tell China he wants to slap a tariff on their exports?

"Listen you mother——ers we're going to tax you 25 percent!"

He assured a woman in the crowd who urged him to run that he expected to make her "very happy," but added later, "there is a really good chance that I won't win because of one of these blood-sucking politicians.

"I'm not interested in protecting none of them unless they pay," he added.

He also said the U.S. Supreme Court ought to rule on the spate of lawsuits against Obama’s health care reforms.

The cursing didn't necessarily have populist resonance with everyone in the crowd....

And despite blasting reporters for querying him about a topic he's raised repeatedly, he voluntarily took another victory lap over the president's move to ask Hawaiian officials to release his long-form proof of birth.

"Hillary Clinton tried to get him to do it, Bill Clinton tried to get him to do it, John McCain, who's a wonderful guy, tried to get him to do it," KTNV quoted him saying. "Nobody could get him to do it and he did it because we went after him hard, were tough negotiators like this country needs."

Mike Huckabee joked on Fox News's "Your World with Neil Cavuto" about the Trump F-bomb tirade which, according to Reuters, was also accompanied by a joke about testicles.

"They always say what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas? Obviously not," Huckabee quipped, adding that Trump was probably the "only" person he knew who could take to the podium and say what he said not just once, but three times, and still be standing. (End excerpts)

As long as he didn't use the "N" word, all is well. The only ones allowed to use that are rap artists. So, its not the word, but who says it. For some it ends career's, for others it makes money.

The following are excerpts from Tom Embury-Dennis' 12 January 2018 article headlined "Donald Trump 'repeatedly' referred to 's***hole countries' in White House meeting says Democrat Senator Dick Durbin" with the subheading "US President claims he 'did not use this language' following widespread condemnation".

(Begin excerpts)
Donald Trump referred to "s***hole countries" during a White House meeting about immigration reform "repeatedly", the Democrat Senator Dick Durbin has said.

He was responding after the US President tweeted to say he "did not use this language".

“In the course of his comments he said things that were hate-filled, vile and racist ... I cannot believe that in the history of the White House, in that Oval Office, any president has ever spoken the words that I personally heard our president speak yesterday,” Mr Durbin said.

He added: “The President started tweeting this morning, denying that he used those words. It is not true. He said these hate-filled things, and he said them repeatedly.”

After being presented with a proposal to restore protections for immigrants from Haiti, El Salvador and unspecified African countries, Mr Trump reportedly said: “Why are we having all these people from s***hole countries come here?”

He asked to know why the US could not instead accept people from places like Norway, whose prime minister he had met with the day before.

Mr Trump eventually issued a denial on Twitter, saying the language he used was "tough" but different to what was claimed.

"Never said anything derogatory about Haitians other than Haiti is, obviously, a very poor and troubled country," he continued.

"Never said 'take them out'. Made up by Dems. I have a wonderful relationship with Haitians. Probably should record future meetings - unfortunately, no trust!"

But Mr Durbin, the senior senator from Illinois, offered a scathing version of events from inside the Oval Office on Thursday.

“When the question was raised about Haitians for example… he said ‘Haitians, do we need more Haitians?’” Mr Durbin said.

“And then he went on to describe the immigration from Africa that was being protected in this bipartisan measure, that’s when he used these vile and vulgar comments, calling the nations they come from ‘s***holes’.”

“The exact word used by the President not just once but repeatedly.”

Mr Durbin said he told the 71-year-old how “painful” the word “chain migration” was for many African-Americans whose ancestors had arrived in the US as slaves.

Mr Trump simply replied with “That’s a good line”, according to the senator....

On Friday, a UN human rights official branded Mr Trump's alleged comments "shocking and shameful", and said "there is no other word you can use but 'racist'".

"You cannot dismiss entire countries and continents as 's***holes', whose entire populations who are not white, are therefore not welcome," UN human rights spokesperson Rupert Coleville said.

The African Union (AU), a group representing all 55 countries on the continent, said it was "frankly alarmed" by the US President's alleged comments.

"Given the historical reality of how many Africans arrived in the United States as slaves, this statement flies in the face of all accepted behaviour and practice," AU spokeswoman Ebba Kalondo said.

"This is particularly surprising as the United States of America remains a global example of how migration gave birth to a nation built on strong values of diversity and opportunity."... (End excerpts)

Shithole countries are real. Even some of our cities are becoming shitholes that rival any third world shithole city. Sanitizing the word don't sanitize reality.
