Late-night TV host Conan O’Brien filmed a special last month in Haiti as a rebuke of President Donald Trump’s then-recent comments calling the country a “s***hole.”
Conan “proved” otherwise – by staying at a luxury resort on the poorest country in the Western hemisphere.

Some internet sleuths quickly identified Conan’s location as the Wahoo Bay Beach Resort, which an employee confirmed. One posted a photo captioned “Celebrity moment : picture with O’Brien Conan and staff. TAKE THAT DONALD TRUMP.”
That hotel costs $254 a night – in a country where the average person makes just above $400 a year. This would be the equivalent of a room costing in the tens of thousands of dollars per night in America.
In another post, O’Brien gave a man a MAGA parody hat that read “Haiti is great already,” while 2/3rds of the nation’s citizens live on less than $2 a day.
He also gave Haitians a chance to roast Trump for accurately describing their country.

It was a bit bizarre to see – given that it seemed too obvious that Conan was only pretending that Haiti is “already great” while America supposedly never was. I’m going to go out on a limb and assume that Conan is well aware what the rest of the island he visited looks like.
Case in point: Conan joking about Haiti before Trump was president.
“Haiti, you just celebrated your 200th year of independence” he said, beginning a joke in an episode that may have aired in January of 2004. “Congratulations – now make a wish and blow out your burning pile of tires.”
Before he was virtue-signaling and begging for approval from braindead leftists to prop up his low ratings, Conan O'Brien thought Haiti was a shithole. pic.twitter.com/8o5y304FI2

“Trump Derangement Syndrome” has gotten liberals to attack America as “never great,” praise Haiti as a paradise, laud North Korea for their “diplomacy,” and prioritize illegal immigrants over American citizens.
What’s next? If Trump tweets that 2+2=4, will that spark a national debate?
