SHITHOLE: The Trump International Hotel in Washington, DC
Trump properties around the world are facing blowback this weekend following President Trump's racist "Shithole Countries" comments to members of Congress this past week.
Multimedia artist Robin Bell, of Bell Visuals, projected the word "SHITHOLE"--with lots of poop emojis--onto President Trump's Washington D.C. hotel Saturday night.
Video shows the word being projected onto the main entrance of Trump's shithole hotel.

"Pay Trump Bribes Here," "Emoluments Welcome," "We are all Responsible to Stand Up and End White Supremacy," "The President of the United States is a Known Racist and a Nazi Sympathizer," "This is Not a Drill" and "#RESIST" were also projected onto the building.
"Why are we having all these people from shithole countries come here?" Trump said last week, before suggesting that the U.S. bring in more immigrants from countries like Norway.

Dear Common Dreams reader, The U.S. is on a fast track to authoritarianism like nothing I've ever seen. Meanwhile, corporate news outlets are utterly capitulating to Trump, twisting their coverage to avoid drawing his ire while lining up to stuff cash in his pockets. That's why I believe that Common Dreams is doing the best and most consequential reporting that we've ever done. Our small but mighty team is a progressive reporting powerhouse, covering the news every day that the corporate media never will. Our mission has always been simple: To inform. To inspire. And to ignite change for the common good. Now here's the key piece that I want all our readers to understand: None of this would be possible without your financial support. That's not just some fundraising cliche. It's the absolute and literal truth. We don't accept corporate advertising and never will. We don't have a paywall because we don't think people should be blocked from critical news based on their ability to pay. Everything we do is funded by the donations of readers like you. Will you donate now to help power the nonprofit, independent reporting of Common Dreams? Thank you for being a vital member of our community. Together, we can keep independent journalism alive when it’s needed most. - Craig Brown, Co-founder |
