      Trying to exonerate him? You're as confused about this as you are about your NAMBLA buddy. And, yes, it's pretty open on this forum that I voted for Trump to stop Hillary.
      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

        You need an English lesson on what basically accurate. It does not mean 'not accurate.'

            That first sentence seems incomplete. When you're insisting somebody else needs English lessons.....

None of them denied it at first, Sen Graham basically even admitted to it by saying he told the President off right then and there. Two of them initially said they didn't know, that they didn't hear it, which you know is BS. If Trump said it then obviously it's something you're going to know whether he said it or not. Sheesh, face facts for a change will ya. Senators don't just make stuff up like that with 6 other Senators present.
                What do you mean face facts? Did you read my post #78? I literally said that I believe he did say it. I'm merely relaying what I heard in the news from others.

                  Yes there is seer. Trumps suggestion was not only that the countries of Haiti, El Salvadore and the countries of Africa are bad, but that the people are bad. You had the good fortune to be born in the U.S. with the greater oppotunity it afforded you. Being born in Haiti, El Salvadore, or Africa doesn't make those people any less worthy a person than you or Trump are. Trumps a racist, ignorant, moron, born with a silver spoon in his mouth and he doesn't think much more of you than he does of people from those countries.

                    But he does have a proven track record of making stuff up like this in similar circumstances. Back in 2013 he was proclaiming that during negotiations between Obama and other Democrats "one GOP House Leader told the president: “I cannot even stand to look at you”."

                    Then Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) characterized the remark as "appear[ing] to have been invented out of thin air." And even Obama's White House press secretary Jay Carney categorically dismissed Durbin's claim saying that "it did not happen."

                    And yet even after this Durbin kept insisting that some "GOP House Leader told the president: “I cannot even stand to look at you”."

                      Durbin's a little drama queen, which is why certain posters here love him so much.

                        His comments had nothing to do with any of that, even if some people that I like, e.g. Mia Love, got a bit sensitive and snow-flaky about them. It was not that the people are "bad" or "unworthy," it is about which people are most likely to be good FOR THE U.S., as opposed to being drains on our resources.

                              The problem is that the country is not going to migrate it is the people, education has never been a factor in immigration in the USA, and the comparison given for 'people' from these countries named is where the racism of Trumps statements lead to. This is nothing new and consistent with Trumps statements concerning 'people' from certain foreign countries.
