So the mighty Donald has pointed out that some countries are ‘shìtholes’ and is being

How offensive it was is irrelevant. The fact that it was true and he said it is what’s annoying his critics and delighting others.

For clarity, however, I think he really ought to provide a comprehensive list of which countries he considers ‘shítholes’. That would be even funnier

Yeah but what he really meant was 'backward'. Using that term would also have provoked all sorts of rage but it also might have invoked a discussion which resulted in something positive i.e. a recognition that taking people from countries where they sh1t in the road and treat women as cattle and putting them in western, secular, multi-cultural democracies creates all sorts of problems.

By using 'sh1thole' he just brought attention on himself with little chance of a constructive outcome.

No, that term, if he did indeed use it, cuts to the heart of the matter in a way everyone understands, instead of confuscating it to no apparent effect, as the high-minded have always done.

No, I didn't say that. I said that if he - Donald Trump - had used 'backward' there might have been a positive outcome.

You're simply mistaken then, because, for his critics, there can never be any positive outcome for President Trump.

What about for this non-critics? They're people too, red.

Sure, but they will vote for him anyway next time, because of the economy, the Supreme Court, the wall, or whatever.
