Update: Trump denies making 'shithole countries' comment (CNN)
WNU Editor: The original media source for this story was from a Democrat aide who was briefed on this meeting .... hmmmm .... I smell a credibility problem here. As to the media's response to President Trump's denial, many of them are saying/implying the following ....."it appears that he is denying these remarks" .... Trump appears to deny 'shithole' slur, defends 'tough' immigration stance (NBC News). I do not know why the media is pushing the story that "it appears" that President Trump is denying these remarks. In his tweet he is very clear that he is denying it.
