The word “shithole” was projected onto President Trump’s D.C. hotel Saturday. Video shows the word, along with the “poop” emoji, being projected onto the property.
“Pay Trump bribes here” “emoluments welcome,” and “we are all responsible to stand up and end white supremacy” were also projected onto the building.
Trump has faced intense backlash for calling Haiti, El Salvador and African nations “shithole countries” during an Oval Office meeting on immigration this week.
“Why are we having all these people from shithole countries come here?” Trump reportedly said, before suggesting that the U.S. bring in more immigrants from countries like Norway.
The White House initially did not deny that Trump made the remarks, but Trump later disputed the reports on Twitter.
Lawmakers, media figures and world leaders have all decried Trump’s comments. The African Union, representing all 55 African countries, demanded Saturday that Trump apologize for the remarks.
