Once again the usual Democrats are up to their usual tactics, misquoting the President, concentrating on minor quibbles, ignoring the important parts, twisting what he said into something else, and the bashing him for that instead of the main point he was making.
These people need some new tactics. These haven't worked for them for a long time. And the more they try it, the more people learn to ignore them, and the farther behind they fall.
It's instructive to look at what the President DID say... all of it, for a change.
On July 14, 2019, President Trump said in a series of tweets:
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. Why don’t they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came. Then come back and show us how....
....it is done. These places need your help badly, you can’t leave fast enough.
Obviously, he wasn't kicking them out of the country, or even implying it, contrary to what the Dem fanatics are now frantically screaming.
He was saying that, if they wanted to tell the rest of us how to "fix" the United States' problems, they should first go to the corrupt, failing countries they favor, fix the far more severe problems there, and then come back to the US and tell us how they did it.
He was implying, obviously, that these congressmen couldn't tell a severe problem if it bit them, much less have any idea how to fix it. And he was suggesting that they get some experience in solving ACTUAL severe problems, before telling others how to do it.
The congressmen, of course, absolutely do not want to discuss any of that. So they are seizing on his mistake where he said "who originally came from countries...", as though that were the most important thing he said.
They clearly want to divert the discussion from the most important points: That they have little or no idea what they are talking about and merely want to run down the United States, while offering no solutions and being unwilling to even try. Instead, they keep screaming and whining that he wants to throw them out, wants to throw colored people out, etc. etc..... none of which he ever said or even implied.
But it beats talking about what he did say.... and the fact that they cannot reply to it.
It's a standard Democrat-fanatic technique to ignore most of what someone says, pick out an unimportant quibble, and concentrate all their attention and vitriol on that, trying to put people on the defensive over minor matters so they won't talk about the main points that are actually important.
And they are doing it more and more, as they continue to lose their voter base and Trump moves closer to re-election despite their loudest and most hysterical efforts.
Historically, the sentence or some version of "Go back to where you came from." is never used towards Caucasians. It's known as a veiled attempt at racism. This was the reason for outcry from real Republicans and Democrats.
Like we only found out from Russian media, that Trump has had several completely private meetings with Putin?
And NOBODY knows what they have spoken about... Nobody.
After 2 years of massive Russia focus, he has had several one on one meetings with the guy, all the Western Intelligence agencies have said helped trump get elected.
That is not a red flag for you....
Because Obama is somehow a Commi Non American Muslim Racist.. that hates white people?
White males sure had it rough under Obama... wah wah wah...
Gimme a break...

Why would I believe you when you can see it with my own eyes? Maybe Borak and the White and Jewish Hating Farrakhan were discussing Improving Race relations
The remarks are not racists. Trump hit back and is right that when the haters are bashing Trump and seems to hate it here so much, then move and see how much you like to live in a socialist country!
Omar came from Somalia and if this country is so bad why did her family decide to come here and not stay. Did they lie on their asylum application?
In addition to now Independent Justin Amash of Michigan.
Will Hurd (R-TX)
Fred Upton (R-MI)
Susan Brooks (R-IN)
Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA)
Hurd’s district is on the border with Mexico, and I think Fitzpatrick is from the Philadelphia area. I don’t know about Upton or Brooks.
I’m wondering if any of the four are lame ducks, or if their districts are so D leaning that there’s a political advantage in separating from Trump. The latter may be far fetched with Trump’s approval so high among Republicans, but if they’re in urban districts that are competitive, I could see where separating from Trump might be necessary to win in a general election.
I’m expecting to be blasted, but here’s the list for wherever the discussion leads.
No blasting from me ! It is nice to see there are at least a few Republicans who will admit the truth, and who do not boot lick like most of those sorry "representatives".

Ever since I was a child those remarks were and are historically racist in nature and anyone who continues to support and make excuses for Trump for such slime is equally racist and culpable. Trump has exposed the rot in the republican party. They can no longer claim fiscal responsibility, family values, regard for life, religious beliefs, respect for civil rights or The Constitution.
