    His tweet was a reaction to congresswomen who demonstrate their hatred of America and their loyalty to third world corrupt countries. They have nothing good to say about the country of their birth or the country that took them or their families in.

    In other words, it was based on their behavior. Your post is distorting the term racist.

    The question is, are liberals unable to defend or appreciate the United states and do they spread lies and distort the comments of people who do appreciate the US.

    That was in response to the claim that Trump never told a white person to go home. That would not make him a racist.

    Admittedly they are slightly off white but so are many of us. Why don't they single out people with red hair as victims? After all, they are a minority and on the decline. Guess it is because they aren't a very strong voting block. Identity politics wouldn't be of help there.

    Isn't that what they're doing?

    They're from this country and they're trying to fix it. That's what they've been elected to do

    They demonstrated no hatred of America. Only disgust with Trump who believe it or not isn't America. And criticizing or wanting to change things in America isn't hating America. Or do you think everyone who oppised the Vietnam war or the Iraq fiasco hated America.

    Haven't heard him telling David Duke to go back where he came from have you. Or Epstein or any equally disgusting white person have you?

    The problem here with liberals AND this thread is the fact they confuse culture with race. If we could go back and sustitute the word "culture" and "culturist" with every time they use the word race or racist....we would be far closer to the truth. Donald Trump is a culturist and so am I. I like American culture and that includes all colors. I have disdain for Somali culture, Mexican culture, Venezuelan culture, and French culture. I don't want anyone of them changing mine. Socialism doesn't belong here. Karl Marx is un American!

    Actually, AOC won 60% of the 11.8% of the Democrats that showed up in a district that always votes Democrat. That's not exactly a mandate.

    Democrats are trying to destroy the country by flooding the borders with people who are incapable of assimilating, people who are used to having big government dictate their every step.

    To a racist, 1% of "color" means the person is not white

    Being Jewish, I've got olive skin, but I'm not a victim, never answered any question of race as anything but white, and never tried to appropriate victim status.

    Karl Marx was Gerrman, so is Trump. Should Trump be sent back to Germany?

    Right you are. I am of Scotch Irish and German decent. I have been told I have "olive skin". I'm not a victim....though I could find a way.

    Karl Marx lived in a collective utopia like so many of today's leftists. No they would always be miserable with individual freedom. Germany would be a "happy choice" for Karl. Perhaps you too. Just a suggestion. I do believe Donald Trump has Scottish blood as well. Americans are a broad mixture. You socialists are going to have a hard time dividing us among blood lines. Identity politics will be a loser!

    Well, Trump does not agree with socialist, leftist Democrat ideas or policy proposals, so that makes him a racist to those folks.

    Like what?

    Go ahead and cite them.

    Telling America hating, Jew hating, socialist, Rep. Omar, that if she does not like the USA to go back to the country of her birth, is not racist.

    Correctly pointing out that many women and children are being raped while trying to cross the southern US border, is not racist either.

    Trump is working to fix the US, to unravel trade deals that put us at a disadvantage, to put us on an equal footing in funding defense of the free world ,,, to reaffirm the promise of liberty that the country was founded on ,,, as celebrated by France's gift to us. The girls are fighting for socialism, not freedom. There is nothing in the founding documents that created the greatest country in history ,,, that talks about totalitarian control of the economy by government. If the girls want to try something that has failed everywhere its been tried, they should create their nirvana in the places they and/or their families hail from and show us how they did it.

    Maybe AOC's own voters will ask her to leave.

    Ocasio-Cortez gets new 2020 challenger: a Republican immigrant from Jamaica.

    “Your representative in Washington chooses
    self-promotion over service,
    conflict over constituents,
    resistance over assistance.”​

    I'm liking Scherie Murray. Going to be tough for Democrats to apply their signature character assassination act to this woman.

    Yup! They love to trot out the racist "Uncle Tom" attacks, though. And even though these attacks no longer are working, they aren't showing much ability to think up more effective tactics.

    AOC DRAWS A CHALLENGER: A Black, Female, Jamaican, Republican Challenger.

    [​IMG]

    AOC is essentially a privileged spoiled entitled White Hispanic.

    Scherie Murray, a 38-year-old New York businesswoman and Jamaica native (she emigrated as a child), has launched a campaign to unseat Facebook Job Killing AOC next year.

    "There is a crisis in Queens, and it’s called AOC." Murray went on to say, "Instead of focusing on us, she’s focusing on being famous. Mainly rolling back progress and authoring the job-killing Green New Deal and killing the Amazon-New York deal."​

    The polls might just bear out Murray's complaint against Ocasio-Cortez. The first-term congress critter was put on the defensive earlier this week, blasting a negative new poll -- conducted by her own party -- as a "mass distortion of reality."

    In a nationwide survey, it was revealed that 74% of people recognized AOC by name, but only 22% viewed her favorably. The poll was conducted by Democrats hoping to identify potential swing voters for 2020. Instead what they found was that the party's oh-so-public up-and-comers are almost universally loathed.

    Fellow "squad" member Rep. Ilhan Omar was recognized by 53% of participants and viewed favorably by only 9%. Other questions on the poll included approval of socialist policies, which showed only 18% of participants viewed favorably. Democrats looking ahead to the 2020 election characterized the results as, "Socialism is toxic to these voters." ​

    We know the poison of these America Haters.

    Murray agreed, saying that socialism is "far to the left and it is not connecting with everyday Americans." Here's her launch ad:



    Scherie Murray, the fresh new face of the job-friendly GOP..

    No it does not look like racism.

    Racism is not determined by who was insulted but by what one says

    He said nothing racist and lack of such insults towards whites proves nothing
