Yeah, what's the deal? He said pretty much the same thing about the White House awhile back.
He's liable to say nearly anything about nearly anywhere, so who cares, right?

He never claimed to be PC. In fact, he said he wouldn't be.

Sure. It's no contest. Deplorable vs. ****HOLE. I'll pick deplorable any day. It's an objectively true description. No other world fits.

I agree. ****hole is an objectively true description.

I will say this. You go to someone's house, even if it's in the trailer park....you tell them it's nice. You don't call someone's home a ****hole, even if it is, to their face.

The language was unbecoming of the office. Other than that, he's not the first guy in the oval office to be vulgar or disparage a person, people or nation. He just happens to be the guy who gets the most press when it comes to this kind of thing.

The POTUS gets press - fact of life. The POTUS shouldn't talk like a vulgar 3rd grader.

So, like, would that incentivize the President to welcome those folks with open arms? Because the context of his remarks was that he didn't want them entering the country.

PC? Seriously? The guy's a freakin' bucketmouth, got a functional vocabulary about equal to a 12-year-old schoolyard bully.

George Wallace had the same problem Trump has.

Yeah the thing with George was he had a pitiful Come to Jesus moment where he said he was just being a demagogue to get votes. Trump has yet to fully convince everyone he's just trying to play the rubes.

President Trump set the tone for his tenure from the 2016 campaign. This story is just another of the seemingly constant stream of negative coverage that oozes out almost daily. Trump has brought this on himself. I do not think that this is the first time a sitting President has chosen vulgar language. The media coverage has changed drastically in a relatively short time. Add to the mix an historically unpopular President who is tone deaf, to be polite, and you have an adversarial relationship. I guess i could have picked “unprofessional”, but unpresidential is a higher standard.

Trump brought this on himself by beating Hillary. Short of arranging for Hillary to win in a recount, there is nothing he can do to make a liberal happy.

Seen a couple of different arguments and curious which is most prevalent. Though you might agree with more than one, please choose the one you most agree with. I didn't make it multiple choice because it would be too easy to just click them all.

Poll on the way.

Geez. The election's been over for a long time. We get it, it was a giddy, triumphant moment for you and there's been nothing but bad news since, but it's time to let go and move on. This, "Trump won, get over it." schtick was old a year ago- it looks kind of unhealthy now.

I had to give George Wallace some credit. When asked if he had referred to Federal judges as thugs, he replied, “yes I did.”

I remember when those of us who voted for Republicans used to like globalization, free trade, and the spread of American hegemony.

It's only an insult if it fits the bill. I live in a cold part of the country and the term doesn't fit me.
 
Re: Trump's "sh**hole" comment it offensive because...

Just curious, for all y’all that think everyone in the world has a RIGHT to come here and bitch about Trump saying no.
Answer me this, if you have a family cookout do y’all open your doors to just anyone to come in you’re house and eat whatever they want?

Good question.
Given that a higher proportion of these migrant folks from "****hole" countries have college educations than the generic American, why do we let non-educated Americans vote?
