Norwegians should not want to come here. They have it better off where they are. I doubt that there is any kind of long wait, unless the State Department totally breaks down from neglect.

It was the thing on his mind -- having just met with the leader from Norway. He's not a complicated, thoughtful man.

Norway has the highest quality of life in the world. I can't imagine any Norwegian is going to abandon that for the ****hole that is the United States.

He can say bring more Norwegians. Not a problem but he should have shut his trap about the Haitian people !

Good question

They need to search death row and get some contestants.

Being a liberal, I don't think any of this is racist. While I despise Trump, he said, "Norway" because he had just met with the prime minister of Norway. That's all. If he had just met with the prime minister of Nigeria, he might have said Nigeria.

What bothers me is the term he used to describe some third world countries. Now that obscene word is being blasted all over the tv. Kids watch tv and have to hear that. No use wishing Trump would learn to control his dirty mouth and no use wishing tv would stop spreading dirty language though.

We know he doesn't express himself very well but what he probably meant was that he wants educated people like you would be more likely to get in a European country rather than uneducated people like you would get from a third world country. I HATE TRUMP but some people are making a mountain out of a molehill.

Why? At some point there do have to be frank discussions about which countries to favor with our immigration policies. And however undiplomatic Trump's language was, the reality is haitians don't have a lot to offer but they do have the potential to bring many costs.

Yeah

And its the mole hill of race to divide and make a mountain. Its not new and it will boomerang this time.

Any hope of winning the white male vote is gone. It hurt the Dems last time and it will again. Its a huge voting block.
