I can't repeat his comments here on AB, but they are all there for people to read. Not made in private but in the Oval Office, in front of other people.

Is this really the kind of language that we would expect the POTUS to be using ?

It is quite possible to be a billionaire and a moron, DD. Especially when the core of one's wealth is inherited. As I've said before, Trump is a member of de facto nobility rather than a self-made entrepreneur. - No, this kind of uneducated language is not the kind we should expect from the President. But it is exactly the kind of language we can now expect from the...

Not read all the replies but I'd hazard a guess that the usual suspects on here didn't argue AGAINST the fact that the majority of the places he made reference too are deemed by a lot of people to be 'sh1th0les'.
'US President verbalises the thoughts of many like-minded individuals' shocker.
Hardly worth the sensational headlines it's garnered.

Spicey.....its doubtful that you would recognise fake news if it droppedd from a great height onto your head.

Trump made all the remarks that are attributed to him, and there are witnesses to prove that.

But as you continue to support this awful man, its unlikely that you will believe anything that is said about him.
LOL....mikey...good morning mikey.

TRUMP....I have never met the man, i realise that he is not everyone's idea of a President and i understand this. However, this almost constantly, daily, criticism of this man, with questionable adjectives, may well turn out to be counterproductive as there may, just may accumulate a sympathy vote.
Just thought that i would mention it.

Morning Sqad !

If Trump were to start behaving with some dignity and decorum, and stop putting both of his feet into every cow pat he can find, the rest of the world wouldn't be able to criticise him as easily as we do now.

The ball is firmly in his court.
// too are deemed by a lot of people to be 'sh1th0les'//

oh you use language like that to your dear wife do you ?
If the answer is yes - I wouldnt like to go out for a drink with you - as by five minutes after opening time I would be in Hospital and you would be leaning against the bar crowing - "foo-ing pansies all of them" - and the publican whispering: "please go please go!"

and if the answer is no: then you recognise that there is a language shift and various styles are suited to various places. As an ex-marine ( semper fi gunny,) you would be OK with the idea that drill square language is not suitable for Bukingham Palace. "- wez my medal you orrible little queen! - dat small ting - I av a bigga one between my legs suh!" - and that to Prince Eddie - no no I am wandering......

and so having established that
we can sensibly discuss whether shith)les is suitable language for a president in the oval room
you can predict that I am going to say it is not.

[ as an aside, I think a chmn of the Fed was forced to resign, when he said: "after the crash ( 1929) the 'murican economy will be in the doldrums for the next few years or decades" - and his comment was; " wossa madda wid dat - its da troof!" ]
O.K....I tried.

Good lord! a senior snowflake!
‘there may, just may accumulate a sympathy vote’

Wouldn’t that be like some kind of litmus test for identifying the terminally stupid?
come on sqad -
in outpatients you didnt say to your patients
" gorra wonky willie have you ? flop it on the counter n I'll av a butchiss!" You said proper stuff,

Sqad - playfully: well not to the women PP!

Hey - sorry news alert - more on Chilldo getting a medal at the palace- This time it is Meghan Markle pinning the gong on Chillz proud bazoom.
Chill - call that a medal ? I have a bigger one in my underpants - I call it bongo in the congo!
Markle for it is she - hey big boy! - bing bang walla walla bing bang baby" [ ed's note - this imust be a reference to the hit song of 1959 - oo-ee oo-ah ah! bing bang walla walla bing bang ]
Meghan continues: well lets get one thing straight beetween us !
Chill - respectfully - wherever ma'am!
Megz - anyway I thought commandos didnt wear underwear
Chill - you really will have to come and see.... TBC

sorry sqad - just writing a sketch for the next xmas show - -
needs must

so people on AB altho they modify their language in the street ( or er the Palace ) seem unable to see that the president might usefully modify his.

( sociolinguistics in case anyone is wondering what it is called)

The fact that he is speaking for many who would say the same thing just makes it worse. What sort of a president airs his ignorance to his advisors. His motto seems to be ‘make America hate again’
Or even: ‘hated’
Mikey, //Spicey.....as you continue to support this awful man, its unlikely that you will believe anything that is said about him.//

It isn’t a matter of believing or disbelieving what’s said about him, simply that what he said, however coarsely or indelicately he’s alleged to have phrased it, is right. I get the impression that you’re not familiar with the poorer nations of this world – I’ve no doubt you’d have told us if you were - but the reason multitudes of people from third world countries flock to wealthier realms is because their home countries are, indeed, as he is alleged to have said, shitholes. They really are. Your problem seems to be that he said it at all, but it’s a fact of life and I see no reason not to acknowledge that. If this has been reported accurately – and that’s debatable – his only ‘crime’ here is his poor choice of language.
Ichkeria, //What sort of a president airs his ignorance //

Acknowledging reality isn't ignorance.
ZM,
Shortly before the Presidential election a recording of Trump emerged where he confessed to “grab them [women] by the pussy”.
The remark did not harm his chances of being elected, and may even have gained even more votes from his core voters.
So Sqad may have a point. Describing foreign places that he has never visited as shith oles, may resonate with Trump’s constituency.
Sqad most definitely has a point but it's falling on deaf ears. If Trump wasn't the subject of so much unnecessary vitriol I doubt I'd bother to defend him much, if at all.
he does seem to stir up some on AB - i often wonder why.
Gromit. You just proved my point.
Some might describe parts of the USA as a shoth ole.

15,300 murders, 1.5million violent crimes - it ain’t paradise.
no it isn't paradise, i was shocked at the level of poverty i saw just going outside of New York, squalid conditions and shanty towns weren't unknown.
No comparison.
Absolutely: his ignorant outburst won’t have harmed him electorally. I don’t think anyone claims that it would.
