United States of America (USA) president Donald Trump has come under fire for his vulgar description of African countries as well as El Salvador and Haiti.

The outspoken leader called the countries in question shitholes on Thursday during a meeting with senators on immigration issues.

Trump : Under fire

He said this as he expressed displeasure with immigrants from those countries entering USA.

His remarks have been described as racist with world leaders condemning the comments. This resulted into US diplomats being summoned in the countries that have fallen victims to Trump’s tongue, as a sign of anger with the comments.

Former president of Mexico Vincente Fox who has been an outspoken critic of Trump said in a tweet that the USA leader’s mouth is the foulest shithole in the world.

“America’s greatness was built on diversity. Trump’s mouth was the foulest shithole in the world. With what authority do you announce who is welcome in America and who is not? America’s greatness is based on diversity, or have you forgotten your migration background Donald?” He tweeted

Botswana’s government called Trump’s comments reprehensible and racist. While Uganda described the comments as unfortunate and regrettable.

The African Union (AU) at large, has been alarmed by Trump’s comments. Its spokeswoman Ebba Kalondo said: “Given the historical reality of how many Africans arrived in the United States as slaves, this statement flies in the face of all accepted behaviour and practice.”

Former Haitian President Laurent Lamothe added up to the numbers of those expressing diplomatic fury when he said Trump had shown lack of respect and ignorance.

Despite USA being among the driving forces of the United Nations, the world organisation has also not sided with Trump on the matter.

  6. I didn’t see evidence that Trump really called countries shitholes. But if he did, he is right. I’m in a 3rd world, left-wing, God hating, faggot loving, Jew owned, communist hellhole with a terrorist government. Otherwise called a shithole.

  7. That is real discription of Africa,look how gready are african leader,disparate africans immigrating in other countries,Chilungamo chimawa,African Leaders must proof it,by making better life to their pple if they say trump is wrong,otherwise we don’t need there empty words for nothing

  8. Yes we are more than shitholes, they give us donation we end up stealing and take the money to foreign banks , Europe , America etc , so aren’t we shitholes??? Each time we waste our energy and resources fighting each other instead of focusing on development, we know how to write proposals asking for donations instead of taking time on how to end and eradicate poverty. Let’s learn to be creative.

  13. We must not blame trump what he said africa must agree,leaders of africa knows only stealing money not to building there countries after that and beg to u.s.a. Please africa hold hands together and build africa

  14. This is high time for African leaders to stop enriching themselves and start forcussing on developing their countries otherwise Trump is right

  29. And what is Malawi’s comment? Malawi is a shithole that could not vote against Trumps declaration of Jerusalem as capital of shithole Israel. This man says the truth and sorry guys he is around till his term expires. Those who voted him into power should be proud of him coz he is delivering his campaign promises. Long live Donald.

  30. And what is Malawi’s comment? Malawi is a shithole that could not vote against Trumps declaration of Jerusalem as capital of shithole Israel.

  31. USA make budget of its people. Now you want to be included in the budget? “American First” was Trump’s slogan during campaign. Why are you bleming him? After all you don’t live in USA. Mind your own business. African countries are shitholes, Trump is right. Feed your house. Not someone to feed on your behalf. If USA donates your country its aprivilage not a right.

  32. We have ourselves to blame for doing so little if nothing to alleviate our levels of poverty. At the end of the day we keep on begging from USA in this case Trump himself then why should we blame him for such powerful and genuine description of Africa? It is high time our leaders and everyone stopped greed and corruption. Trump says the truth and seriously what he said is the truth of Africa and Africans. #fact

  33. I don’t blame him, for most of the African leaders they are so selfishness , when they want to hide their riches or to buy something expensive it’s all done out of Africa, leaving poor citizens of Africa hopelessness, besides look at the civil wars happening in some African countries torched by the same Americans in search of rich minerals , on the other hand greedy politicians receiving bribes for the sake of business. He is right what else he could refer Africa to,

  35. Leaders in Africa are greed and corrupted.. Taziwona zosezo dziko mwathu muno. Just image 2016 anthu timakangona Ku admac kumapeto kwake wina ndikumaveka kuti waba ndalama zachimanga. Cash gate tayiwonela limodzi, joyce banda akuphaka life tikunenapano. Wakuba ndalama zachimanga uja alikuti pano? Now u guys are mad coz amwenewo ayakhula chulungamo. We need to change tikapanga zibwana tizasowa pogwila, mayiko osewa timawadalilawa atatinyanyala or ndi one kwacha yomwe osatipasa. Let’s build our Africa into great continent. We are the problem to our problems.

    7. #stevie.. Achina #chaponda -WO ndi amene akupangisa kuti tizipitilila kusawuka. Kukhala osawuka doesn’t mean kuti tizigopitilila kusawuka amwene. Trump called us #shithole coz of our status(poverty), and why are we poor?… Is not coz of #Chapondas and #joycebandas?. Your old generation don’t want a change, it don’t believe in better Africa that why mumagoba ndalama ndikumatumiza ana anu school zakunja, pamene mwana wamuthu amene amapeleka sokho aku mphuzilila pasi pa mtengo ..
