The word was "shithouse" according to National Review guy on CNN....

[steve2470]

I didn't get his name, sorry. Like it makes a huge difference that he supposedly said shithouse countries instead of shithole countries.

eta: Erin Burnett's show with April Ryan, Paris Dennard (who tried to defend Trump) and Joan Walsh also.

eta2: It is Rich Lowry from NR. Looked him up after I heard him referred to as "Rich".

1. The Drumpf Tower is a shithouse, too.

[Kirk Lover]

2. It's doesn't make a difference and he also didn't say house. Nobody says shithouse...so

just stop trashbag apologist liars.

[rzemanfl]

6. You've always have had indoor plumbing, right? n/t

[Kirk Lover]

7. Yes people from Queens always have indoor plumbing....more proof he didn't say

"shithouse" it's not in his vernacular.

[rzemanfl]

27. This is my last word on the subject, without shithouses, the language would suffer.

"Crazier than a rat" just isn't descriptive enough.

[Kirk Lover]

30. You're right, of course we use shithouse. I meant not in that context. Nobody says

shithouse country....it's shithole...that's universal, even the orange asshole knows that.

[kcr]

17. Like Trump hasn't n/t

[Docreed2003]

15. I use shithouse all the time!

Like “Trump is crazier than a shithouse rat”

[Kirk Lover]

20. Excuse me, I should of been more clear. I shouldn't of said nobody uses that word because

yes it can be used. Of course we use shithouse from time to time or on a rare occassion.

But it's the context. That is what I meant! Nobody says shithouse country. People say shithole...and so do orange assholes.

[Docreed2003]

25. Lol...I got ya

And you’re absolutely right, no one says shithouse country...shithole on the other hand:

[Kirk Lover]

26. OMG he does, I have 5 cats. What a great diet aid. GROSS!!! n/t

[tblue37]

33. Also a dog's butt. nt

[Iliyah]

3. AND

Next thing it will something less offensive but sound so much like shithole.

[rzemanfl]

5. Like he meant to say "holy shit" countries but got confused because of dementia. n/t

[Eliot Rosewater]

4. He says these things multiple times a day everyday about black populations, gays, women etc

It just so happens a patriot was in the room this time. A democrat.

[cloudbase]

8. That's a bigly difference. n/t

[OilemFirchen]

9. That followed Paris Dennard asserting that there's no evidence this happened.

Hmphf. If it didn't happen, how does shithole Lowry know the precise word Trump used?

[steve2470]

13. yep you nailed it

To research what Lowry said, I looked on Google News. Absolutely NO evidence of shithouse, so yes, how in the f**** does he know? Defection/diversion and just plain lying.

[OilemFirchen]

16. It's a good question.

He probably fucked up the narrative by accidentally telling the truth for a moment.

[jpak]

10. Rich Lowry - a putrid sack of shit - how the fuck does he know?

Deflection.

yup

[underpants]

12. He constantly interrupted Joan Walsh

to the point that she had to point it out twice.

[underpants]

11. Yeah Rich Lowry was talking about how the elites of both parties...hold it let me stop there

Lowry talking about "the elites"

[malaise]

14. Both are uncouth and typical of this racist short-fingered vulgarian

[yallerdawg]

18. This guy is just one unsubstantiated source...

and CNN's Erin Burnett starts quoting him.

Unbelievable.

[bpositive]

19. Distinction without a difference

A distinction without a difference is a type of logical fallacy where an author or speaker attempts to describe a distinction between two things where no discernible difference exists

[Voltaire2]

21. 17. Defense Through Subtle Distinction

The Art of Being Right

[rzemanfl]

31. Very good. Thank you. n/t

[Greybnk48]

22. Oh! Well, then everything's alright? Right?

It's amazing to think of where we are as a country right now. I have an idea! Blame the baby boomers!

[0rganism]

23. next it will be changed to "shiphouse" or "chithouse" or "chiphouse"

and after that narrative has saturated RW media, Trump will declare "fake news"

[NurseJackie]

29. Yep.

[mcar]

24. Turned it off at that point

The previous 2 hours were solid, but having 2 loser RWNJ's on to defend the indefensible wasntoo much for me.

[Gabi Hayes]

28. Hahahahahaha.....Lowry vs Franken. I remember it well:

[steve2470]

32. as of 1045 AM EDT, there are NO sources whatsoever confirming Lowry's allegation

https://news.google.com/news/search/section/q/shithouse/shithouse?hl=en&gl=US&ned=us

So we are left with two possibilities

1- Lowry was lying out of his ass

2- Lowry was told bad information

I go with option number one, personally.
