3. Yes, but he is from a wealthy white family

So he didn't have to experience any if tge shitholiness of SA.

2. No - he is a white South African

4. technically yes, donnie called all of africa a "shithole".

but yeah, we all know it was code for people of color.

my own boss is also a white south african, he took personal offense at donnie's remarks.

7. looks like you are correct.

the context concerned specific nations. as the media reported it, it was from a specific list of countries to "haiti and certain african nations" to "haiti and africa".


jury's out on whether donnie considers south africa a "shithole" nation now that whites are no longer in charge....

6. No, Elon Musk is highly educated. Graduated from Univ of Pennsylvania

And the Wharton school of business and completed his education before starting at PayPal.

I’m assuming his “merit-based” immigration system would include people educated at the most highly respected (and US based) business school in the world.
