I voted for Hillary, but I'm going to call out some hypocrisy.

All of you all that are 'offended' by the substance of the shithole comment, please answer the damned question.  I should also point out that most of the responses to the shithole comment have been equally infantile.

If you were forced to have an immigrant family to live next door, and were given a choice based on nation of origin, which nation would you pick?

1.  Norway

2.  South Korea

3.  El Salvador

4.  Sudan

5.  Haiti

I would venture to guess 90% would select 1 or 2.  Enough with the phony bullshit! 

It was also wrongheaded for Angela Merkel to open the doors to refugees when this move was disliked by so many.  This move compelled many to support Trump, and also why the West may loose Poland, Hungary, Czech Republic to Russia.  To hell with Deutschland.

Maybe I missed an opinion, but I don't recall anyone here stating they were offended by the shithole comment.  Personally, I thought it was just part of the new normal and should not have surprised any of us.  I'm not even upset with his fling with Stormy – the most normal fucking thing he's done that I can see.  I would however like to see some accountability.  Shit fire and save matches, if he'd come clean on the porn star activities, we all could assume that his body and mind are working just fine, and there would have been no need for any damned exams or tests.     
   
No way would I select Norway, unless Aylar Dianati Lie was part of the immigrant family, but she's only part Norwegian.  Does that matter?

Actually I'd favor a Vietnamese family, which is not on your list.  Ever since I had that Vietnamese noodle soup in Duluth MN I've been trying to perfect my pho, with little success.  I could use some help.

So I'll take the liberty to add a #6 (Other) to your list.  I pick #6 (Other) Vietnam.

You might be mistaken in your evaluation of this crowd.  Perhaps you should have also added a #7 I don't give a shit who moves next door!

Well so much for mental and health issues

Must be something else we can get him on b';

Happy as a pig in shit, I am!  Blaming his medical/mental condition would have been way too easy.   

I wonder if there is an Integrity/Honesty Test?

The Army put me in three of those countries.

I love Koreans most of all, well, except for their affinity for eating dogs.
Haitians are awesome people who can't catch a break, earthquakes, hurricanes, and the Clinton foundation sucking mineral wealth out of the nation. I probably grieve the most for them.
El Salvador is also troubled country, with awesome hardworking people.

With the exception of your Norway entry, the common thread of all these "shitholes" is Flawed US foreign policy that has endured multiple democrat and republican regimes since the 1940s.

Trump won't fix this, and Hillary wouldn't have either.

Next time add Libya.

I've had a pretty sheltered life. The only neighbors I've had issues with were seemingly entitled indigenous whities.
I have Swedes up the street, btw. Nice folks.

I enjoy all of this banter.......but to celebrate my IRA and other investments going up over 23% since Trump took office,  I think I will go purchase a double double cheeseburger extra large fries and a Diet Coke.

Have you read NPR's reports about the Red Cross and how much relief money never reached Haiti?   It's messed up.   Some estimate that $13 billion was earmarked for earthquake relief in Haiti but the place is still a disaster.   Wonder where all that money went.......

My sentiments exactly. Hell after yesterday I may even trade in my Android phone for an IPhone.

Ref Haiti - The biggest industry in Haiti is government sanctioned organizations who look for and supposingly manage charitable groups who come in to do their "feel good" work that never seems get done and only makes a temporary relief in the lives of the people living in that shithole country.

I had a Haitian in my accounting classes.  Dude was one odd fellow.  We had a group paper and he was assigned to my group.  It was a 50 page group paper with 4 people in the group covering the convergence of U.S. GAAP and IFRS.  We came up with the outline and divided up the sections.  The Haitian emailed us his parts 1 day before the paper was due, which was 3 pages single spaced typing of gibberish.  We all ended up having to rewrite all his sections overnight.

What was his name? 

I had a similar experience with a fellow student when I was an undergraduate.  His name was Mason and he was from Rock Hill SC. 

Your point?

Ricardo. 

Point? If you are doing a group paper, don't pick the Haitian.

Haiti is a victim of its own people and government corruption in large part. Haiti has been an independent country almost as long as the US, and it's been a shithole for most of that time. The other half of the island is a fairly decent country. They have the same earthquakes and hurricanes, but manage to  have decent infrastructure and quality of life.

Man-o-man, I whiffed on that one!

To begin with I thought your point(s) was/were:

1.   The Haitian was a procrastinator, or
2.   All Haitians are procrastinators, or
3.   Spacing is foreign to the Haitian, or
4.   Spacing is foreign to all Haitians, or
5.   The Haitian was fluent in gibberish, or
6.   All Haitians are fluent in gibberish, or

And since you said, "We all ended up having to rewrite all his sections overnight",

7.   The Haitian redeemed himself, and helped clean the mess, or
8.   All Haitians would have helped to correct the gibbered submission, or
9.   We separated ourselves from the Haitian and corrected the mess, or
10.   We asked the Haitian to help clean up his work, and
a.   He declined
b.   All Haitians would decline, or
11.   We did not ask the Haitian for help, separating ourselves from the Haitian for eternity, or
12.   All or some of the above

Who the hell is "we all"?

Your true point would be like me proclaiming:  If you want to have an intelligent conversation, don't engage a christian.
 
Both are poor form.

Fine, pick the Haitian, but don't say I didn't warn you.
