No...though "Slovenian shitholes" is probably one of T___p's favorite fetishes.

So, to use Trump's definition of a "shithole country", it appears Slovenia doesn't qualify.

(15,805 posts)11. Throughout our history we have targeted various ethnic and national groups
of immigrants. Eastern Europeans arrived in the United States to escape wars and oppression, and Americans didn't like them any more than the Irish, Germans, Italians, Chinese, or Japanese immigrants. In the modern era its the Mexicans and Latinos, Indians, Southeast Asians, Arabs, Persians, and Africans that get the brunt of it.
