At the doorstep of the United States, why is Haiti called a country caught in a "cesspit"?

Because Haiti is a country full of riots, poverty and backwardness. And Haitians like to immigrate to the United States in large numbers, which makes the American government very angry, so Trump said it? Dung pit? Country.

Say that Haiti is a country, people will naturally think of chaotic environment, poor and backward economy, and a large number of immigrants to the United States. Haiti, which has been independent for more than 200 years, should have a stable political situation and worked hard to develop its economy. However, 200 years later, Haiti is still poor and chaotic. Trump has publicly stated that Haiti is a? Dung pit? Country. Although his words are insulting and ironic, it is really hard to refute what Haiti looks like now.

Haiti has become like this for many reasons. First of all, the turbulent political situation in Haiti cannot be separated from the influence of France, the former sovereign state. France's colonial rule is very tough, and it is always tough to treat colonial countries. So France forced many colonial countries to rebel and become independent. France invaded Haiti twice and wanted to engage in slavery in Haiti. This angered the Haitian people, so they resolutely rebelled against France. As a result, France was driven away and Haiti was destroyed. Therefore, the development foundation of Haiti after independence is very weak.

Secondly, the long-term colonial rule has greatly influenced the influence of French revolutionary thought on the Haitian people. So there is? As long as the government makes me unhappy, I will turn against you? For hundreds of years, the Haitian regime has been unstable and has changed frequently. It is conceivable that even the political situation is unstable, how can we talk about developing the economy and benefiting the people?

In addition, Haitian leaders like to engage in authoritarianism. Therefore, despite the hilarious revolution in Haiti, the leaders want to monopolize power. Dictatorship makes it very easy for rulers to expand and get lost in the desire for power. This makes people's lives very difficult, and there are often rebellions.

Finally, because Haitian refugees like to immigrate to the United States. After immigration, most people can't adapt to American life and integrate into the American environment. Therefore, many people have embarked on the road of crime, which has affected the public security environment in the United States, and the US government must be very disgusted. In particular, the United States, a country with white supremacy, is even more uncomfortable with these black people in Haiti, so there is Trump's public remarks.
