Related: About this forumMcSally pretends 's***hole' is not a slur
Rep. Martha McSally needs the votes of Trump supporters to win the Republican senatorial primary in Arizona so she decided to pretend she is less intelligent than she is.
To pretend that s***hole is not a slur.
When the congresswoman was asked about President Donald Trumps comments during a immigration meeting, in which Trump supposedly said, Why are we having all these people from shithole countries come here? McSally feigned the inability to distinguish profanity from prejudice. From racism.
McSally said, I speak a little salty behind closed doors at times as well, so Im not going to throw the first stone on using any language. Look, the issue he was trying to get to is weve got to reform our immigration system.
Making excuses for a bigoted remark in order to gain political support is McShameful.

(51,469 posts)1. You know, I've yet to hear the GOP explain exactly why we have to reform our
immigration system. It does need reform. Here's what I'd like to see.
1. A plan to obtain citizenship for those who have established lives in the country for x number of years.
2. Accepting 100,000 Syrian refugees per year. Plus refugees from other countries. Kind of expanding TPS.
3. DACA forever.
