President Trump reportedly called Haiti and African nations as "shithole" and compared those nations with such nation as Norway (the President negotiated a deal with Norwegian Prime Minister earlier this week).
Now all the headlines talked about his wording and all literally means all the nations on earth. In particular, the Russians and the Israeli newspapers talk about he potential 'rift' between the US and the UK.
It must be noted this phenomena coincided with President Trump announcing he will not participate in the opening ceremony of the American Embassy in London. It is rumored that he would have expected a huge rally -- like the protests against the Iraq War.
Their protests could have been for anything, including Jerusalem, for instance, while the people from those 'shithole' nations are voicing their protests against the prejudice.
