Donald Trump uses derogatory language regarding Haiti, Libya, Somalia, Yemen, and Norway FAST-MOVING
During recent campaign rallies in Georgia and Michigan, US President Donald Trump used derogatory language to describe several nations. At a rally in Perry, Georgia, he referred to Libya, Yemen, Haiti, and Somalia as “shithouse countries” and “terror infested,” while criticizing Democratic Senator Jon Ossoff for supporting legislation to grant temporary protected status to Haitian nationals.
In a subsequent rally in Port Huron, Michigan, Trump directed similar insults toward Norway, calling it a “shit house country.” He stated that Norwegian immigrants are not welcome in the United States, attributing his hostility to the fact that the Norwegian Nobel Committee did not award him the Nobel Peace Prize.
Regarding Libya, Trump issued a statement on Truth Social praising the resilience of the Libyan people and their cooperation in combating ISIS, but demanded that the nation cease acting as a transit corridor for illegal migration. He reaffirmed US support for Libya's political unification and national elections.
