I can't repeat his comments here on AB, but they are all there for people to read. Not made in private but in the Oval Office, in front of other people.

Is this really the kind of language that we would expect the POTUS to be using ?

I do not consider that expletive to be particularly foul-mouthed. Vulgar, yes, but not foul-mouthed. I've seen it used on here with impunity; suitably disguised, of course, but everyone recognises it.

"Why are we having all these people from Tishhole countries come here?" - a question I often ask! I wouldn't mind so much but when they get here they try to turn it into where they came from! If it's so great stay there!

Funny how anyone who voted Brexit is branded by some people racist.

I have nothing against RACE what I am concerned about is NUMBERS (so I am NUMBERIST not RACIST).

Some of our main UK companies were started by immigrants (Tesco, Marks and Spencer etc), Brunel was French, Portillo and Milliband both had parents who came from abroad, therefore many immigrants are a benefit to this country.

However what we have now is a FLOOD of immigrants and many people want that flood reduced.

I live on the edge of Birmingham, a city that will soon have 50% of its population "immigrants" (immigrant families etc).

There are parts of the city where it is 100% Asian (or other immigrant groups), schools were 100% of the children are non-white.

Some areas like Sparkhill or Small Heath are like mini Iraq or Pakistan. I try to avoid driving through them but when I do it is like driving through another country.

I live on the edge of the city where it is mostly "white" people, yet a few weeks ago we had Asian men coming out of the city into our area and attacking people (mostly women) with baseball bats to steal their cars.

Here is a report of one of the gangs who were doing it.

Now I dont know about you but I would rather not live in a country where I have a chance of being attacked with a baseball bat and having my car stolen.

And lets not get on to the subject of Muslim terrorists or we will be here all day.

So it seems our weak governments (Labour and Tory) have decided to go down the route of letting anyone and everyone in to the country, no matter who they are or what skills they bring (or don't bring) to the country.

I though our political leaders were supposed to make a country safe to live in, but all our lax leaders have done is make the country a dangerous place to live in.

Guilbert ... I concur !

[anotheoldgit]

BA for Guilbert53, mikey.

[ichkeria]

I don't think the swearing is the issue, is it?
"Put my effing cheeseburger down and let me lock my bedroom door"
"We're going to bomb the *** out of those *** Viet Cong"

Unpleasant, but maybe not quite as gratuitously offensive to entire nations he isn't at war with

[emmie]

i also concur with Guilberts post. London hasn't always been the dump it's turning into, cosmopolitan is one thing but the dumping ground for the worlds poor is quite another.

[emmie]

walk down many roads now in the capital and you would swear you were in a foreign country. It wasn't always like this.

[jno]

London has always been the town the world's poor come to, even before the time of Dick Whittington. It's coped with waves of refugees for centuries. Why, some ABers may even be descended from one of them.

Tho not actually on topic :-)

[Jackdaw33]

I think it's very much on-topic. The OP concerns Trump's description of certain countries and why should they come to the US. People in the UK who share his sentiments are merely applying the same to this country.

[anotheoldgit]

jno

Are you saying that London is now the same as it has ever been?

[ichkeria]

Apart from the *** h***les in the streets :-)
Going back a bit :-)

[ichkeria]

My answer to the OP would be summarised from other posts as indeed all presidents swear: it's becoming par for the course for this president to make foul mouthed comments, but not really in terms of using foul words: simply causing offence and creating barriers and highlights exclusion and difference wherever he goes.
"Not fit for office" does not do it justice.

//I can't repeat his comments here on AB,//
Why not?

//Is this really the kind of language that we would expect the POTUS to be using ?//

Why not?

You mudt live in a very closeted bubble if you consider 'merde'hole 'language'

Get a grip man.

[emmie]

for anyone interested he has sent out a total denial he made such remarks..

[mikey4444]

Emmie....Mandy Rice Davies springs to mind.

[hereIam]

Being verbally attacked because he loves his country - wish our politicians had such backbone.

[mikey4444]

hereIam........his "love" for his country has nothing to do with it.

He is being criticised because he is a foul-mouthed moron.

I though "Snowflakes" were of the younger generation, but it seems we have older ones too, those whose sensibilities are shocked by a bit of colourful language.
The same man on new year's day said, " The US has foolishly given Pakistan more than $33 billion in aid over the past 15 years, and they have given us nothing but lies and deceit, thinking of our leaders as fools. They give safe haven to the terrorists we hunt in Afghanistan, with little help. No more!"

No swearing and first class leadership.
