Asked if he was concerned his tweets attacking congresswomen of color were seen as racist and being embraced by white nationalists, Pres. Trump responds, 'It doesn't concern me, because many people agree with me.'
President Donald Trump extended his online attacks of progressive Democratic congresswomen on Monday, asking when they will apologize to the U.S. adding a host of new and unsubstantiated charges.
Without naming the lawmakers, he appeared to be referring to what has come to be known as a"squad" of progressive freshman women of color, which includes Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., and Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass. It's important to note that the President's words yday, telling four American Congresswomen of color"go back to your own country," is hallmark language of white supremacists.
"If you're not happy here, then you can leave. As far as I'm concerned, if you hate our country, if you're not happy here, you can leave" https://t.co/9HTxRHanha pic.twitter.com/iNRONfh6Du "If someone doesn't want to be in our country they should leave, that's all." https://t.co/u12y8COUQJ pic.twitter.com/LPnhqHcY4o
"When @realDonaldTrump tells four American Congresswomen to go back to their countries, he reaffirms his plan to “Make America Great Again" has always been about making America white again. Our diversity is our strength and our unity is our power," Pelosi added coming to the defense of the lawmakers despite recent public disagreements.
