Keep talking Mr. President. It helps your opponents every time you open your mouth.
Elaborate on the twisted little logic behind that? Only US citizens are allowed to vote in national elections. But that includes ALL US citizens, white, hispanic, or any other. How does verifying citizenship in any way shift "political power" away from Hispanic American citizens?

Seems far more like one more activist judge throwing a temper tantrum against the Executive branch and the rule of law in this country.

Polls don't agree with you. Most people think Trump is a racist.

If he just kept his mouth shut he'd probably be more successful in court. But it's his own big mouth that tips the court off as to what his real motives and objectives are.

I hope he never shuts up.

You are fodder for the Trump hating WaPo.

And that article begins with a big lie. "Even before President Donald Trump’s racist tweets toward four Democratic congresswomen of color,

Trump never mentioned anyone by name, and it wasn't racist.

But since you went there, why didn't they mention that Omar's disapproval rating is 91%. That's the real news behind this.

Omar's Disapproval Rating is 91% Across America - Why Wouldn't the President Call Her Out?

He never said anything racist. Liberals just indicate they lost the argument when they shriek racism.

Keep talking Mr. President. It helps your opponents every time you open your mouth.

Good try, no cigar. I see WaPo is desperate, too.

The "judge-shopping" left has always been successful at getting judges to block their opponents' policies. The fact that some apparently can't comprehend what they read, and think that remarks which aren't racist, are, is a deficiency on their part, not Trump's.

So, we will continue to say, Keep talking, Squad. Most of the American public is fed up with your anti-American rants.

I do like the legitimate news outlets, that's true. I also like the New York Times. You know, the real media. Not a fan of fake Fox News, though.

Not sure how any of this relates to the fact that Trump's big mouth tanks his proposals in court, though. I guess that subject is too real for any of you who have responded thus far to address. Deflection is always the go to position.

No part of Trump's tweet mentioned race, anywhere. Typical Leftist/Democrat tactic of trying to make everything racial even where there is none.
