    One thing is for certain. This fight Don started over race is a fight he wants to have. Which brings us to the undeniable conclusion Don feels making outlandish accusations against black and brown people like these 4 congresswomen works for him with his base supporters. His message is a dog whistle to the older white voters fearful of the demographic trend that is the browning of America.

    There was nothing racial here, it has to do with countries.

    AOC claiming to be a "woman of color" is a bit of a reach. I've known more than a few people of Puerto Rican descent and not a one of them identified as a "person of color".

    President Trump's comments on the Broad Squad are a perfect example why I not only consider him to be a great president but also a genius entertainer. The responses that he evokes from the likes of the OP entertain me for hours. I love it. I absolutely love it.

    I'll take your word on that. You seem harmless enough, but you do provide for some of the more hilarious responses to President Trump here at PF. He never fails to ruffle your feathers.

    From where I sit, your conservativism is mute. You seem to me to be completely unable to distinguish between message and messenger or policy and personality. Nothing good comes from disagreeing with people rather than ideas, but the very worst things come from agreeing with people rather than ideas.

    In absolutely every thing you have ever posted about President Trump, you have compared the best intentions of others to his less-than-best intentions. You invalidate every argument you try to make by starting off with that conclusion. To put it more succinctly, Dayton, you tend to beg your arguments.

    Let me ask you a question. You wrote above that you are conservative. With what are you conservative?

    You're right that the tweet was poorly timed. Trump isn't very subtle, "bull rush their ass for entertainment" is his only move. More a TV star than a master politician, sure.

    I really don't care if you support another Republican in the primary. Anything that makes progressives lose is good.

    But if you think "muh they were born in America" is an argument, you've got some serious thinking to do :
    - If you think being born in America makes you an American, that literally means you support birthright citizenship. Do you? If not, what relevance does being born in America or not even have?
    - He said they "originally came from other countries". So he called them immigrants. Ever heard of second and further generation immigrants?
    - https://www.dictionary.com/browse/originally
    Archaic : from the beginning; from the first; inherently.
    https://www.dictionary.com/browse/inherently
    existing in someone or something as a permanent and inseparable element, quality, or attribute; inhering:

    I think that those progressives are inherently foreigners. It's as accurate as it gets.

    They've never been average freshman. They've been Trump hating, White hating, America hating racists from before they ever took their oath of office. They use their gender and skin color as their armor, and they seldom if ever speak without calling themselves "women of color", as though that somehow makes them superior to those who are not women, or who are not of color.

    All four are a disgrace to our country, a disgrace to our congress, and a disgrace to themselves; and today's press conference served only to further solidify that reality.

    Besides the bs sources you obviously follow, show me evidence that everything you type isn't total crackpot delusions.

    I should explain that evidence means facts that can be validated, not what you heard on Fox Noise.

    I'm conservative in domestic, foreign, economic, and social policy.

    I loathe men who chase women like Trump has in his personal life. I loathe people who often use vulgar language. I loathe people who seem to love the sound of their own voices.

    You will quickly find that any opposition to trump will get you branded a liberal.

    lol, good luck with that last time people thought Trump could not win cause the right would not vote for him, this time we know better, people will get out and vote

    we used to think the right would want to at least pretend they were the moral party, always touting to be the family values party, now we now their true values... Trump has shown us that

    If you wanted a comedian and a clown for a POTUS, there are plenty of other choices. The man child in that office don't cut the mustard.

    Entire Congress is a disgrace that that include the chicken shyt republicans who refused to speak up. This is why the republicans are done once Trump is done.

    He sees more value in rallying the base with hateful tweets.

    We now have Americans telling other Americans that they aren't welcome here. Turning Americans against each other has been his goal all along. He has consistently sought to divide the nation. Any guesses why? I know.

    What trump was implicitly saying, his dog whistle to the white nationalists was, if you aren't white, you aren't a real America You hate America. You're an enemy.

    And nix free speech as well. If you criticize America, you are UnAmerican.

    This isn't coming from some thug on the streets of Portland. This is the person in the WH.

    How can anyone not see this as a fundamental crisis. The country is failing more and more every day. Trump is willfully ripping it apart and setting the stage for war.

    I'm not a lefty. So first, try a dose of reality.

    Knowing trump is a thug and the greatest danger the nation has ever faced, doesn't make me a liberal.

    The "squad" is the only fact I need. They validate my post every time they speak.
