    He did say go back to where you came from.

    I guess their instinct is to interpret that as not being American.

    Trump didn't name anyone in those tweets. It's weird that the media says "he was refering to these 4 women." When there isn't any reference to them at all.

    There's only one he could have been referring to who was actually from somewhere else, and he was speaking in the plural, so he was making the same mistake no matter who he was referring to. Plus I'm pretty sure he's started to address the follow ups to "the Squad" at this point.

    I once saw a PBS documentary on the Klan. That means I’m a racist.

    I am. So I’m a racist.

    You know what must really trigger the lefties? When Trump was the first to open his club to blacks. That is definitely a racist thing to do.

    Yep, he is and he is doing it by tying them to the democratic party like an anchor with a short chain.

    When we are in America and he tells them to "go back" to another country, he's the one with that instinct. Great job trying to find a way to scramble to project his instincts onto others, but it didn't quite work out. Maybe next time.

    Trump’s racist comments can be used against him in court as judges cite them to block policies
    https://www.washingtonpost.com/nati...7f0e60391e9_story.html?utm_term=.18a1df0a98b0

    "The latest tweets, saying that four Democratic members of the House, all citizens and women of color, should “go back” to “the crime infested places from which they came,” just builds on the others. Smart lawyers combine the cumulative record with more mundane administrative law complaints, turning relatively routine cases into more serious Equal Protection Clause controversies. That gives judges greater license to probe the motives of the government."

    Didn't these same 'white supremacists' cheer Tlaib and Omar's anti-Semitism? Not sure you folks have a leg to stand on in this fight...

    He didn't tell them to go back to another country.

    Maybe they weren't the only ones who don't instantly associate as Americans.

    You can't go "back" to a country you are already in and he explicitly mentioned other countries. You can stop projecting.

    The tweet in question told the individuals in question to go back to these countries and help there, then come back to the united states with advice on how to do things better in the united states. That is not in any way similar to telling someone to go back to where they came from.

    Then perhaps illegal aliens should stop trying to enter the united states.

    Actions have consequences, and criminal acts have even worse consequences.

    No, but you can go back to your crime ridden, smelly district from DC.

    Rep. Ilhan Omar Apologizes 'Unequivocally' For Remarks Condemned As Anti-Semitic
    https://www.npr.org/2019/02/11/693480995/house-democrats-urge-party-leaders-to-condemn-anti-semitism

    Omar was criticized by Dem leadership and apologized for her remarks. We await a similar course of events from Repubs regarding Don's racist tweets.............but no one is expecting it to happen. The hallmark of most Repubs is never apologize.

    That doesn't make her any less of an anti-Semitic hater, just one that covers her hate in false apologies. Why would any Republican apologize? It isn't as though you would give Trump a clean slate if he did. Nothing Trump can do would ever please you, so appeasing you folks is pointless, counterproductive even...

    Don't remember any Democrats in Congress complaining back when they sent us to Vietnam.

    CNN in a nutshell..............

    Tanking because of being dishonest. Just like in the old days, "And So it Goes."

    Telling them to go back to the countries they "came from" and then come back here is still telling them to go back to where they came from even though they are actually (with one exception) from here to begin with.

    He didn't say districts. He talked about other countries. Specifically. The mental gymnastics aren't working.

    Nearly everyone is cheering Trump's commentary.

    The squad is four left wing cranks, four whack jobs.
