actually he did.
Trump Tweet:
Quote:Never said anything derogatory about Haitians other than Haiti is, obviously, a very poor and troubled country. Never said “take them out.” Made up by Dems. I have a wonderful relationship with Haitians. Probably should record future meetings - unfortunately, no trust!
Quote:CNN’s Jake Tapper tweeted some clarifying reporting that might have found a way to reconcile all of these contradictory statements: Trump said during the meeting that Haitians should not have protected status in the United States — “take them out,” he said — and then later also referred to African nations as “shithole” countries.
Yes he never said it about Haitians, Just Africans ??
Quote:But Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL), one of the leading Democrats trying to negotiate a DACA deal, was at the Thursday meeting and went on the record to confirm that Trump had said what the Washington Post reported.

On the positive side for Trump supporters we know that him telling lies is not a problem and as a bonus you will not all need to back flip from supporting him calling these Poo Countries.
