"Visit S**thole Zambia": Donald Trump's Comment Inspires Tourism Ad
A tourism website in Zambia, one of the “shithole countries” demeaned by Donald Trump, is using the slur as a marketing prop.
The Facebook post for Zambiatourism.com invites tourists to “Visit ****hole Zambia.”
The post, mantled by an attractive sunset scene, also takes some thinly-veiled swipes at the U.S. president, promising potential visitors that “the only stars and stripes you'll have to see are in the sky and on a zebra.”
“Where beautiful vistas and breathtaking wildlife are our trump card!” the post adds.
Trump found himself in a storm after witnesses reported he made bigoted comments during a bipartisan Oval Office meeting on immigration reform Thursday.
Trump reportedly asked: “Why are we having all these people from shithole countries come here?”
The statements were formally condemned by South Africa, Botswana and the African Union, among others.
The Facebook post by Zambiatourism.com, an independent website not affiliated with the country’s tourism board, drew a mixed response online.
One commenter disapproved, noting: “There is nothing ***hole about Zambia or any other African country.”
Others saw the funny side. “This ad sets a fine example of how to respond with dignity, resilience, and humor to the racist comment of Donald Trump,” another commenter wrote.
Zambiatourism.com said the post was “a pure play on the latest comments to come from the U.S.”
“We most certainly do not see our precious country as anything less than spectacular!”
