Leave the US, Trump tells Democratic congresswomen of color
AP ^ | July 14th, 2019 | By JONATHAN LEMIRE and CALVIN WOODWARD

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump on Sunday assailed a group of Democratic congresswomen of color as foreign-born troublemakers who should go back to the “broken and crime infested places from which they came,” ignoring the fact that the women are American citizens and all but one was born in the U.S. Trump’s tweets prompted a wave of searing condemnation from Democrats, who set aside their rifts to speak as one in calling Trump’s remarks racist and breathtakingly divisive.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said the president wants to “make America white again.” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, jousting for days with Pelosi, said Trump “can’t conceive of an America that includes us.”

Trump was almost certainly referring to Ocasio-Cortez and her allies in what’s become known as “the squad.” The others are Reps. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts and Rashida Tlaib of Michigan. Only Omar, from Somalia, is foreign-born.

His signature song was originally a ballad of a western cowboy. The Kremlin thought it too US-friendly so forbade him from recording it. He still liked the tune, so substituted la-la for the words and went with that.

Remember when being said to be “colored” was offensive?

Now they wear it like a badge.

As if calling Trump every name in the book and investigating him for years on end for absolutely NOTHING is not “breathtaking divisive.”

Screw THEM. It’s about time someone on our side had the balls to call these anti-American shits out for the human garbage that they are.

"Every word out of their vicious America hating mouths is divisive. Trump is just calling them on it."

I agree.

Omar:

"So to me I say raise Hell, make people uncomfortable. (Cheering and Applause) Because here’s the truth, here’s the truth. Far too long we have lived with the discomfort of being a second-class citizen. And frankly I’m tired of it, and every single Muslim in this country should be tired of it. (Applause) CAIR was founded after 9/11 because they recognized that some people did something, and that all of us were starting to lose access to our civil liberties. So you can’t just say that today someone is looking at me strange, that I am going to try to make myself look pleasant. You have to say this person is looking at me strange, I am not comfortable with it, I am going to go talk to them and ask them why. Because that is the right you have.”

The ‘C’ in NAACP must have been a thorn

“Who give s rats behind about them, only no brains watch them anyway and it is not as if the truth is familiar to them or they could handle it”

I only care because they still have undue influence upon the American electorate. A good number may be no-brains, but a whole bunch of them vote.

The man is brilliant. He loses no votes and forces the entire Dim arty to defend their crazies.

LOL - I didn't see it that way at first - but you're right - that's what's happening here. It's brilliant... Yeah, let's talk about the extremists in the democrat party who hate our country...and who come across as mean...

Pro 26:4  Answer NOT a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like unto him. 
Pro 26:5  Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own conceit. 

But there is more to it. Which one should we do? Head ache time...................................

Or, he was only referring to Omar. You really don’t know, do you? You just assume.

But they tell me there are no contradictions in the Bible.
I don’t know how I’m going to explain this to the dog.

Anti-White and Anti-American does not get the Democrats any more votes. They already have all those looney tunes.

“Cortez the explorer“

Brilliant. We watched i a couple of times then went back to Rodgers and Hammerstein, Mercer, frank Sinatra Gene Kelly

Those of you with young kids about just go to that they will love it AND get a lesson in Americana

I say go with Cortez the Explorer

Terrible repetitive irritating low IQ ugly feminism for toddlers. Very fitting

I believe Clark recommended something else, and not “rocks”.
