“The president is a racist. He has been for his entire public life.”
Tomorrow is the 8th anniversary of the earthquake in Haiti. Violent dictators, natural disasters and raw injustice have conspired against the dignified, resilient and wonderful Haitian people for decades…

Haitians have been a big part of the American melting pot…
In 1990 14% of us Haitians were managerial and professional – lawyers, scientists, teachers, doctors, business managers. By 2010, this figure was 24%…. Haitians are a proud and resilient people and their country isnt— Ben Stiller (@RedHourBen) January 12, 2018
A shithole.
Wishing all those affected by the earthquake, the last hurricane and everything else they have had to deal with all the best from our country. #respect

The president is a racist. He has been for his entire public life. If you vote(d) for him, you do so because of that or despite that. We need a multi-racial anti-racist coalition to defeat him and try to heal our nation.

Mr. President, immigrants from El Salvador, Haiti and the 54 countries in Africa likely helped build your buildings. They’ve certainly helped build our country. cc @POTUShttps://t.co/hv1QYRoRy3

When Trump calls other countries “shithole countries,” does he realize that puts our own citizens in danger? How is that presidential?

“Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!” This country’s greatness and true genius lies in its diversity.

Trump apparently wants more Norwegians and fewer people from ”shithole” countries in Africa. You know what’s a real shithole? Trump’s goddamned mouth.

“Let me be clear…. the people of Haiti have been through more, withstood more, fought back against more injustice… than our President ever has” Anderson Cooper choked back tears as he reflected on his relationship with Haiti, and its peoplehttps://t.co/3arEalkKOM

In a week Trump will do/say something that’ll make today’s “shithole” comment seem quant. Does anyone remember “Mexicans are rapists,” “bleeding out of her whatever” and “good people on both sides”? Happy 11th day of 2018, everyone!

I’m the proud daughter of immigrants from British Guyana and the Congo. My immigrant family – my cousins, aunts, uncles and my husband’s Jamaican family – have contributed MIGHTILY to this country. Yet Trump, of all people, views us as useless products of “shithole countries.” pic.twitter.com/kYzEvNEdnV

To paraphrase Stephen Colbert, those aren’t “shithole countries” because their president isn’t Donald Trump.

Very clever sir! Cancelling the trip, rather than admitting you’re scared-silly at the prospect of facing massive protests you’d inevitably encounter upon your arrival, was a masterstroke! UK is just another shit-hole country, right?#MakeAmericaCringeAgain https://t.co/Kk3h1zmVsJ
