    No I think of a country being made up of many races. All men created equal is a universal sentiment. .

    When Trump makes vulgar unprofessional insults about allies and trading partners in front of Congresspeople and his own opponents he is making himself look bad.

    Wait, maybe you got used to the Obama bowing and cheshire grins when speaking of other nations.

    Anyway, what we have here is more trump derangement. This is not that big a deal to Americans but it certainly is to the left wing press people.

    Do you think using a swear word once in a while at the office is the same as calling a co-worker a shithead in an official meeting in front of competitors who want your job?

    So now being too polite is as bad as calling a co-worker a shithead in an official meeting in front of competitors who want your job?

    True. Since it's not as obvious as I thought, Trump didn't tell those countries that, so it's not comparable to treating a customer badly.

    An applicable analogy would be if the coworker told another coworker some bad thing about a customer during a private conversation.

    I usually keep a civil tongue, the "N" word isn't part of my vocabulary but when I cuss and use profanity it's an art form that one learns while serving in the military. I learned phrases and words from my DI that I never knew existed.

    I laugh when street wise gang bangers, thugs. liberals, beta males and snowflakes try to cuss picking up what they know from being of the streets or CNN.

    Most derogatory slang words can be traced back to the European militaries hundreds of years ago like the phrase "fu*k you" which is military slang, Old German phrase that has the same meaning as the U.S. Marine Corps WW ll phrase "Semper Fi Mac."

    When I use profanity or cuss, nobody is offended, they are just really scared.

    You would think given how you feel, the Democrats that allege they heard Trump speak, out of courtesy to the other nations would take the high road and keep it locked up in the room.

    Everyone swears. Obama NEVER called another country, any country a shithole.

    If trump jams his hand in a door by accident and starts swearing, nobody is going to get upset.

    In a bi partisan meeting to discuss American immigration policy to use an expletive to describe a group of countries with majority populations of color, THAT is not just a domestic partisan issue, its an AMERICAN and INTERNATIONAL ISSUE. How many US troops are operating in the AFrican Union these days?

    Seems the words the president uses in every aspect of fulfilling his duties is listened to by the world and in this instance the world ain't too happy. IN fact the AU is demanding an official apology for the US government.

    Who knew making things great entailed pissing off the rest of the world and directly diminishing America in the process?

    Normally the cussing comes from contact with cussers. Frankly as I see this, the media is in a daily state of cussing Trump. Sure they may not use the S word in the talk, but their language the tone proves they hate the man. Cussing is sort of an expression of hate.

    The left wing media does not mind it that they made certain the nation and the rest of the world know knows Trump has colorful language. Obama had plenty of cursing in his admin. The media praised Obama, daily.

    Then, just to follow the analogy to its conclusion; the second coworker makes sure the word gets out, thus ruining business relations with that customer, getting attaboys from other coworkers, and getting the original coworker in trouble with management.

    As lousy as you allege it is, the media owed this nation a vow to keep this quiet. Maybe once Trump is gone, but if this damages relations, then the media owed us and those nations a vow of silence.
    Is the media mad trying to start controversies with other nations?

    Textbook uproarious (not to be taken seriously) response by the the pro-Trump RW Fever Swamp:

    "Hey, look over here, it's the monster (that we obsess over 24/7) that keeps us up at night and haunts our dreams (Big Bad CNN)."

    Nobody (repeat NOBODY) takes Trump's Apologists seriously anymore.

    Trump's Apologists forfeited the right to be taken seriously long ago.

    Still, the article in the OP is beyond laughable and shows just how low that the RW Fever Swamp Trump Apologist crew has sunk.

    Dire times for the pro-Trump crew.

    Once again, Defending the INDEFENSIBLE.

    All the time knowing that no one takes them seriously.

    Must be rough. :smfh:

    Holy s**t! So you must really be mad at Trump for some of his Tweets that have offended other nations. Right? Or are you a hypocrite on this?

    I would hope my language would not be coarse....but I have been known to revert to my old ways in a fit of passion. However....Trump did not announce that publicly. It was said in a meeting of those that have been elected to serve America. Do you think it was wise for his choice of words to leave that hall? It has been reported that one of your left wing news stations quoted the "word" to day 36 times and they did it publicly. It has been the buzz among liberal senators and left wing media all day. Is that good for America?
    What did you think about Hillary publicly calling a good portion of Americans " a basket of irredeemable deplorables". Didn't see too much outrage from the left wing media. I do know Hillary has been known to use foul words in private. It was quoted of her saying "if this son of a bitch gets elected we'll all hang"! Maybe so.

    No, our 'gotcha' leftists are incapable of grasping that because history as it was once taught is no longer taught. Instead it is all about social engineering and leftist FEELINGS as a substitute for genuine history. Thus they have no sense of the appropriate or that any such thing actually exists.

    Back when they use to teach real journalism in our schools and colleges, wannabe journalist learned to master the English language.

    Politicians master lying by using words that the average person doesn't understand.

    Was completely unaware that CNN was one of the protective groups.
