Civil Rights icon: Trump's profane comments about immigrants were 'despicable'

Trump insisted he did not use the word "shithole" to describe Haiti and African countries.

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was equally critical of her onetime rival in last year's presidential campaign and the USA ambassador to Panama has tendered his resignation amid the ongoing scandal.

The president later said of his controversial remarks on Twitter that "The language used by me at the DACA meeting was tough, but this was not the language used".

"The language used by me at the DACA meeting was tough, but this was not the language used", Trump tweeted.

His remarks reportedly left the assembled politicians "taken aback", the paper said, with Lindsey Graham, the Republican senator for SC, and Richard Durbin, Democratic senator for IL, among those in the room.

Michael Wolff's "Fire and Fury: Inside Donald Trump's White House" said the president prefers to be in bed by 6:30 p.m. with a cheeseburger in hand. In November, Secretary of Homeland Security Elaine Duke announced termination of the protections for Haitians, saying, "Significant steps have been taken to improve the stability and quality of life for Haitian citizens, and Haiti is able to safely receive traditional levels of returned citizens".

"The ambassadors and the charges will note what an honor it is to be in their posts and how much we value our relationship with the people of the nation where they represent us".

Senator Dick Durbin claimed the president said "things which were hate-filled, vile and racist".

Trump denied he ever said "anything derogatory" about the people of Haiti.

The group's mission in Washington DC expressed its "shock, dismay and outrage" and said the Trump administration misunderstood Africans.

CNN political analyst and White House reporter April Ryan outlined a unique way for people to oppose President Donald Trump's reported comments that some foreign nations are "s-hole countries".

Instead, Cuomo lauded the United States for welcoming all "no matter what race, what color, what creed, what income level, what education level", and as an experiment that's worked well.

USA missions went into damage control mode.

In that speech, Trump said when Mexico sends its people, the country is not sending its best: "They're sending people that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems with us". One woman he interviewed said she might consider trying the American dream: "If they get a new president". "We will probably hear more from him". "The president is in excellent health and I look forward to briefing some of the details on Tuesday".

Editor's note: Contains vulgar language.

"Trump has always been a racist, only a racist can use such foul language", said Nancy Mulenga, a student at the University of Zambia.

In an oddly-timed coincidence, the USA president on Friday signed a declaration honoring slain civil rights icon Martin Luther King Jr, three days before the federal holiday celebrated in his honor.
