President Donald Trump may have finally met his match: The Squad.
The famously foul-mouthed President on Sunday launched yet another Twitter tirade, saying that the four congresswomen, known as The Squad -- US Reps. Ilhan Omar, Ayanna Pressley, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Rashida Tlaib -- should "go back" to the countries they came from. All four are US citizens, and three were born in the United States (Omar is a refugee from Somalia who spent part of her life in a Kenyan refugee camp).
But the women haven't backed down. Nor have they responded with platitudes or undeserved tact. Instead, they've called the President what he is ("racist") and his language what it is ("white nationalist"). Unlike the many politicians and public figures previously attacked by Trump, these four women can fight him on his own turf: Ocasio-Cortez, in particular, is social media savvy and understands the particular patois of Twitter. They also have youth on their side; next to them, Trump seems like the grumpy, racist grandpa that he is.
And, more importantly, they have the moral high ground. It takes some real mental jiujitsu to twist Trump's comments into anything other than straight-up racism. How else do you explain someone telling four American citizens to "go back" to foreign countries? What the President really means is that nonwhite Americans have a less legitimate claim on this nation than white ones. Two of the President's three wives, after all, have been immigrants themselves, and he doesn't seem to suggest that they should "go back." The "go back" assault is fundamentally racist and cruel.

Not even with one arm tied behind is back and ankle shackles in place.
Just when I thought it couldn’t get any better. That is an all-time classic.

“foul-mouthed President..”
Who was it again who let the F-word fly a few times publicly?? Or is that ok because she’s pretty high on the liberal victimhood points list?
Man hands!
4 women = 1 man ?
Add pelosi and the pesidential challengers and senators....still not matching Trump.
Not fair to real women.
I was tending toward not guilty until I saw that pic. And if you look at the pic a few responses down, does something seem wrong that she’s giving a speech about her feminist tome at the Cis Building?
