After sharing a video in which commentator Michael Savage called India and other nations “hellholes,” Donald Trump faced backlash. He later praised India as a “great country” with a good leader. Meanwhile, India’s MEA avoided direct criticism, offering a brief, cautious response to the controversy.
In a bid not to fuel the fire sparked after US President Donald Trump reposted a racist remark by conservative author and radio host Michael Savage, in which he referred to India, China, and other nations as “hellholes”, the President has now praised India, saying, “It’s a great country with a very good friend of mine at the top.”
President Trump & The Hell Hole Controversy
On April 23, President Trump drew attention to a controversial debate on birthright citizenship by sharing a video of conservative commentator Michael Savage. In the clip, Savage alleged that immigrants exploit US laws by arriving in the “ninth month of their pregnancy,” claiming that “a baby here becomes an instant citizen, and then they bring the entire family in from China or India or some other hellhole on the planet.”
The video, originally from on Newsmax, circulated through a Trump-linked account reposting his social media activity.
