Donald Trump has said that some Democrat congresswomen from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe should go back and help fix the totally broken and crime-infested places from which they came.

While it was not explicitly clear to whom the US president was referring, it came after he launched an extraordinary attack on Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ilhan Omar both women of colour saying he doesnt even know where they came from.

He tweeted: 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 dont 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 cant leave fast enough.

Im sure that Nancy Pelosi would be very happy to quickly work out free travel arrangements!

Commenters quickly condemned Mr Trumps comments as racist, some accusing him of xenophobia or early Hitler-style talk.

One pointed out: These women are American citizens. They are doing the most patriotic thing available to them: questioning and critiquing their government.

Patriotism is much more than just saluting a flag or singing an anthem.

Another told the president: Three of the four were born here, so you may be right about fixing the place where they were born. The fourth is a citizen. All were elected by a majority. You fail on all counts.

Yesterday, Mr Trump had claimed Ms Ocasio-Cortez and Ms Omar were among a group of Democrats being disrespectful to speaker Nancy Pelosi.

Ms Pelosi had told colleagues she was frustrated with people using social media to criticise other members of the party. The comments were interpreted as being directed as Ms Ocasio-Cortez, Ms Omar, and two other Democrat women, all of whom have large social media followings among progressives and have been outspoken.

The president said: I deal with Nancy Pelosi a lot and we go back and forth and its fine, but I think that a group of people is being very disrespectful to her. And you know what, I dont think that Nancy can let that go on.

His history of racist comments includes sharing a tweet attacking Sadiq Khan, the London mayor, following three killings in the city.

London needs a new mayor, Mr Trump wrote. Khan is a disaster will only get worse!

Did that apply to the Irish during the potato famine, the Italians when they were doing even worse than the Irish, and the Germans fleeing Germany during the world wars? No? I wonder why?

And why isnt he pointing out his waifu Kim makes those countries look like a paradise?

You think he's bold now, wit ti his second term, and yes, he's winning again, dems are way too fucking fractured and are probably gonna shatter as a result of their little civil war games between corporate dems and progressives I would not be surprised in the slightest if after Trump's second term we end up with another republican

Sadly he can say whatever he wants because his party is in lockstep with everything he does and refuses to call him out, and most of the Dems in Congress are too cowardly to actually do anything.

Yeah and he's definitely going to win re-election, because not only is he shitting on the progressive wing of the Democratic party, but so are the rest of the Democrats

Republicans are one solid party right now, while the Dems should really just split in two at this point

Democrats already have little power as is a split will pretty much kill all their power completely because if they split it's gonna become progressive democrats who everybody hates as their what people think of when the subject of SJWs, Tumblrs, Resetera Feminists and Antifas comes up and corporate democrats will effectively become the new centralist republicans since their beholden to their corporate masters just like their republican counterparts over voters this can only favor the republican party, in fact, that's probably exactly how this is gonna go in the future of American government, powerful corrupt party vs incompetent party they can blame when all the things they're in charge of go wrong, even now people blame democrats more for the past 2 years despite republicans owning the entire government,

Right now I can see Trump winning, getting 2 more supreme court justice picks, republicans retaking congress, holding the senate and a shitload more legal gerrymandering and corporate bailouts and handouts along with more tax cuts for the rich and corporate democrats starting to become more right leaning.

It's almost like the midterms never happened to these people. This whole "THE DEMS ARE SO SPLIT AND DIVIDED!" shit is the same narrative we heard before November 2018, and yet the Democrats ended up cleaning the fuck up across the board.

I'm convinced the 2016 election has blinded people and caused them to ignore every single other example of precedence we have seen.

Dems are held more accountable than republicans, dems were given congress to put a check on Trump's shit and now we have a congress that refuses to do it's job, which has pissed off their voters who are either supporting progressive take over or flat out boycotting or spitefully voting for Trump next year. Do you not get how this works? They are fractured where as Republicans tow party lines pretty hard, when you have a fractured and angry base especially a base like this where if they do not get their candidate such as progressives wanting sanders yang or warren over biden of course the writing is on the wall that Trump will win

At least it's exclusively trolls defending this so far. Hopefully that means this has at least some consequences for him. I don't see how Pelosi can argue for the Squad to work with him again after this, he doesn't respect them as Americans, much less as legislators.

That's true, until the right wing news blocs and forums can manage to come up with a spin. Let's see what they come up with here. If they want to just ignore it, then it's our job to keep bringing it up.
