LOL
Love the tweets. Most Americans will understand the sentiment. Democrats dont and lose by calling it racist.
Stupid linguini spined republican to rebuke Trump in 7.6.5...
Heh, you are no doubt correct.
Special thanks to FReeper Cowboy Bob for the idea......
Awesome!
The Dems are screwed.
“Top Democrats are circulating a poll showing that one of the House’s most progressive members Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has become a definitional face for the party with a crucial group of swing voters.
Why it matters: These Democrats are sounding the alarm that swing voters know and dislike socialism, warning it could cost them the House and the presidency. The poll is making the rounds of some of the most influential Democrats in America.
“If all voters hear about is AOC, it could put the [House] majority at risk,” said a top Democrat who is involved in 2020 congressional races. “[S]he’s getting all the news and defining everyone elses races.”
The poll taken in May, before Speaker Pelosi’s latest run-in with AOC and the three other liberal House freshmen known as “The Squad” included 1,003 likely general-election voters who are white and have two years or less of college education.”
Tlaib-Caucasian
AOC-Causasion of Latino/Hispanic Ethnicity.
Illhan-well, she should leave on principle.
Taken together, these verses teach the appropriate way to answer a fool. They should not be answered with agreement to their own ideas, or they will think they are right, but rather they should be rebuked on the basis of their folly and shown the truth so they can see how foolish they are.
“These are the “white, non-college voters” who embraced Donald Trump in 2016 but are needed by Democrats in swing House districts.
The group that took the poll shared the results with Axios on the condition that it not be named, because the group has to work with all parts of the party.
The findings:
Ocasio-Cortez was recognized by 74% of voters in the poll; 22% had a favorable view.
Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota another member of The Squad was recognized by 53% of the voters; 9% (not a typo) had a favorable view.
Socialism was viewed favorably by 18% of the voters and unfavorably by 69%.
Capitalism was 56% favorable; 32% unfavorable.
“Socialism is toxic to these voters,” said the top Democrat.
Between the lines: Dems are performing better with these voters than in 2016 (although still not as well as in 2018). So party leaders will continue to try to define themselves around more mainstream members.”
Oh no! Some President said something!
Brilliant? He should know that 3 of the 4 congresswomen come from the USA, but he lumped them all together with Omar. Doing so makes the tweet off the wall.
I dont believe President Trump told her to leave. He challenged her . . . to go back to her native country to help solve its problems to show her track record of achievement (which does not now exist) or shut the hell up, which is a skill a lot of people on the left should learn until they can make cogent, well thought out, TRUTHFUL statements about matters that their constituents care about. That however, would approach miracle status!
Trump is totally right here. Also Rep. Ilhan Omar married her brother to gain citizenship. So she is not even legitimately in the U.S.!!
Notice how the propaganda media selectively quoted Trump to make him appear as a racist xenophobe:
__________________________
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.
Trumps tweets drew sharp rebukes from Democrats, who derided his remarks as racist. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said the president wants to make America white again. Meantime Republican Rep. Justin Amash of Michigan, a Trump critic who recently took steps to leave his party, called the remarks racist and disgusting.
__________________________
When in context of his entire tweet, his quote makes sense:
__________________________
“So interesting to see ‘Progressive’ Democrat Congresswomen, who originally came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe, the worst, most corrupt and inept anywhere in the world (if they even have a functioning government at all), now loudly and viciously telling the people of the United States, the greatest and most powerful Nation on earth, how our government is to be run, he said in tweets. Why dont they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came.”
He added: “These places need your help badly, you can’t leave fast enough. I’m sure that Nancy Pelosi would be very happy to quickly work out free travel arrangements!”
__________________________
The KEY POINT LOST HERE by the MSM is that Trump is actually rhetorically saying:
“...if you are to criticize our country as corrupt and are so concerned about correcting wrongs committed by governments, why dont you go to your countries of origin to solve their problems?”
In other words, this isn’t exactly as if Trump is saying “you go back to your country” as a stand alone statement. Rather, his comment is conditional upon the notion that these people are criticizing the US, so if they want to do so, they would find a lot more to criticize in their countries of origin.
Can you imagine Romney, Bush, or even Reagan having the confidence to say this? Thank you Trump for your honesty.
Btw, he is not being racist, but rather, “culturist.” There is nothing wrong with comparing one culture to another.
AKA $hitholes
For years we endured the mealy-mouthed utterances of the Bushes. Thank you Donald for the fearless compunction that gives us hope, support, and a way forward to victory over the Marxists, outright Communists, and racists that occupy the Democrat Party.
My latest Congresssman, Michael Cloud of the TX-23rd, decided to go with the latest H1-B engorement last week which lets me know that there is much to do; so much to do.
Not another dollar Congressman Cloud. You’d be wise to get your arse on the Trump bandwagon.
Oh no! Not ‘Democratic Congresswomen of color’!
Trump did not say” women of color” as the article says.
Or, she can try to start a rebellion, and we can shoot her, like the idiot in Tacoma, yesterday. (From four different directions, no less...) There are always alternatives.
