    What's this? Trump personally funds a medical Trip to Haiti to help people with their eyesight and the press magically forgets? Clearly only racists spend their own money on the people they are supposed to be racists against right? Anyone want to guess how much the same "outraged" liberal leadership have spent of their own money to help out Haitians?

    Another nail in the coffin to the never ending race baiting far left.

    Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul brushed off suggestions that President Trump holds a racial animus against Haitians because he once supported Paul’s trip to the Caribbean nation to do eye surgeries on poor Haitians.

    Paul said on NBC’s “Meet The Press” Sunday that Trump donated money to a medical mission trip Paul took before he was president. Paul did about 200 surgeries on Haitians that allowed them to see while he was on the trip, and he said that’s evidence Trump isn’t prejudiced against the country.

    Trump was breaking ground on immigration, then it all went to "****"

    “It is unfair to draw conclusions from a remark that I think wasn't constructive is the least we can say and I think it is unfair to all of a sudden, paint him, well, he's a racist, when I know for a fact he cares very deeply about the people in Haiti because he helped to finance a trip, we were able to give vision back for 200 people in Haiti,” Paul said.

    Liberal elitists know perfectly well what Haiti and El Salvador are. As do Haitians and Salvadorans. Which is why the elite take their vacations in the Bahamas, Spain, and Hawaii, though there are beautiful beaches in Central America.

    So you have donated money to an aid relief mission to Haiti?

    No? What do you hate Haitians?

    Media probably needs to start bashing Paul now. He's getting in the way of the narrative.

    Well, it has the same effect as saying I have a black friend and I pay for him.

    Americans contributed 1.4 billion to Haiti. Do you want them to list everyone?

    Which means Trump gave even more with taxes along with his personal donation.

    Good point thanks! :)
