As a Navy Veteran, I have been to places the average American has not, and truth be told, many of them were $hitholes.
President Trump said the obvious, recently, calling Haiti and countries in Africa $hitholes when indicating that the United States is taking far too many immigrants in from these countries.
The liberal left Democrats went into crybaby mode. How dare Trump call the people of those countries a bunch of . . .
Wait!!!
Trump did not say the people of these countries are anything less than people, and he was not being racist. But, the liberal left's emotional knee jerk tendencies took his $hithole comment to mean he was saying the people themselves were a bunch of $hitholes.
The sickening nature of the countries being referred to are $hitholes, not because of the people, but because of the political system they follow - a political system based on the same fundamental principles as leftist liberalism being practiced by the Democrat Party.
If we take a look in history, the truth is obvious. Limited government and systems based on a free and dynamic economic market prosper and thrive, while countries that follow the collectivistic big government principles of leftism become $hitholes. It's not a mean-spirited comment, it is simply the truth.
