“During an interview with CNN’s Jake Tapper broadcast on Tuesday’s edition of “At This Hour,” Senate Minority Whip Dick Durbin (D-IL) stated that President Trump said ‘We need more Europeans” and “We need more people from Norway” during the immigration meeting where the president made reference to “shithole” countries.

Durbin said, “The most outrageous comment, obviously, was in reference to countries overseas that might send immigrants to the United States, and the president used the vulgar term, which has been repeated over and over again. But it was a long, far-ranging meeting about immigration in general. Negative things were said about Haitians coming to the United States, the president was talking — and I think this is a tell, if you will, ‘We need more people from Norway,’ he said. ‘Norway, they don’t even take refugees in Norway,’ he said. ‘And I just met with the Norwegian prime minister. We need more Europeans. We need –.’ I mean, it was pretty clear to me what the president’s message was in that meeting.”

Tapper then asked Durbin whether the president was referring to Africa when he made the “shithole” comment. Durbin answered that the president was referring to Africa.”
