Note that the cited article also reads,
"The person said the language was salty on both sides."
Both sides

Nevertheless, Trump without some yet to be defined Constitutional Amendment requiring eloquence, has literally spoken a truth that every poster on this board subscribes to. That immigration policy is necessarily judgmental, discriminating, and based on arbitrary values.

I guess we can file this in the same genre of Trump apologetic that contended that the problem with Trump bragging about sexual assault was that he used the word "pussy."

norwegians would go to the prison, instead of united states...

Inmates on the prison island of Bastoey, south of Oslo, are free to walk around in a village-style setting, tending to farm animals. They ski, cook, play tennis, play cards. They have their own beach, and even run the ferry taking people to and from the island. And in the afternoon when most prison staff go home, only a handful of guards are left to watch the 115 prisoners.

"We have something we call the 'normality principle' in the Norwegian correctional service," says Tom Eberhardt, the prison governor.

"Daily prison life should not be any different than ordinary life, as far as this is possible."

In 2016, the Prison Policy Initiative estimated that in the United States that about 2,298,300 people were incarcerated out of a population of 323.1 million. This means that 0.71% of the population was behind bars. Of those who were incarcerated, about 1,351,000 people were in state prison, 646,000 in local jails, 211,000 in federal prisons, 34,000 in youth correctional facilities, 33,000 in immigration detention camps, 14,000 in territorial prisons, 5,500 in civil commitment, 2,400 in Indian country jails, and 1,400 in United States military prisons.

Yes, U.S. locks people up at a higher rate than any other country
“It’s a stark fact that the United States has less than 5 percent of the world’s population, yet we have almost 25 percent of the world’s total prison population. The numbers today are much higher than they were 30, 40 years ago despite the fact that crime is at historic lows.”

When the President uses a word, does that mean we can use the same word here on this site? Clarification please.

I believe the quote was, "Grab their pussy. They'll let you." How is that sexual assault when they let you?

Why would he want people from Norway to come to America? Norway is a semi-socialist country with high taxes and huge government spending. We don't want those people coming here with their socialist ideas.
