President Donald Trump has questioned why the US should allow more immigrants from "****hole countries" during a meeting with legislators about a proposed bipartisan deal on immigration.
Mr Trump made the profane remark after Democratic senator Richard Durbin told him a lottery for visas would be ended under the proposal, according to several sources who spoke on condition of anonymity.
In exchange, Mr Durbin said people fleeing from countries suffering from natural disasters or civil strife, including Haiti and El Salvador, would be allowed to stay in the US.
Mr Trump specifically questioned why the US would want to admit more people from Haiti, and also mentioned Africa, the sources said.
One of the sources who was briefed on the conversation quoted Mr Trump as saying: "Why do we want all these people from Africa here? They're ****hole countries... We should have more people from Norway."
