He called Haiti a shithole.

Because it's a shithole.
There might be (lots of) reasons to criticize Haiti, but just because there is rural poverty doesn't make it a shithole. The US has rural poverty.

Now, it's interesting that 200 years ago, the standard of living in places like Britain and Sweden was pretty much what it is today in Haiti. And what happened? Development. Progress. Things get better over time, for the most part.

I was never under the impression he said it because of rural poverty.

I was replying to your post where you showed the photo of (what I assume is) rural poverty.

By the way, what is "shithole"? Dirty? disgusting?

I'd characterize a shithole as a lawless dump that has no chance of changing on its own. Maybe the Clinton's can keep up their important work in Haiti...

Sort of like most American cities who have Democratic mayors? ;)

Looks better than Alabama, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Mississippi, or East Texas. Those Haitians aren't very good with a banjo though.

Well by God - looks like Cletus has some competition. I think an international hoe-down is in order. No transgender types allowed.

Except, over the last year, less violence.

I guess that would make the following cities, shitholes:
Seattle
Portland
Detroit
Chicago.....but Chicago has been shitholeish for a long time
Minneapolis

Please add your own... :lol:

Let's see Globalists like evil 100 year old Soros and Population control Bill Gates buy a COVID testing company together.
