Trump Confirms His Disparaging Remark About 'Shithole Countries' at Immigration Meeting

Nearly eight years ago, President Donald Trump denied using the word "shitholes" to describe African countries during an Oval Office meeting on immigration. But now he has fessed up. In a speech Tuesday night in Pennsylvania, Trump boasted about pausing migration from what he called "Third World" countries, when he was interrupted by an audience member who yelled out "shithole." That triggered Trump to recall a White House meeting during his first term that caused a stir over whether the president used a vulgar term to describe African countries.
