‘I am Not a Racist’, Says Donald Trump

President Donald Trump denied he is a racist Sunday, three days after he reportedly referred to immigrants from Haiti, El Salvador and Africa as coming from “s—hole countries.”

“I am the least racist person you will ever interview,” Trump responded to a reporter’s question at his Mar-a-Lago Florida resort.

Trump said he is “ready, willing and able” to reach a deal to protect from deportation about 800,000 young immigrants who years ago were brought illegally by their parents to the United States. But he said, “Honestly, I don’t think the Democrats want to make a deal,” and earlier in the day said he thought the program is “probably dead.”

Trump contended that Democratic lawmakers “don’t want security at the border, they don’t want to stop drugs, they want to take money away from our military which we cannot do.” In a Twitter comment Monday, Trump said, “My standard is very simple, AMERICA FIRST & MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
