AOC unloads on Trump after he tells progressive congresswomen to 'go back' to home countries
Fox News ^ | 14 July 2019 | Gregg Re

Posted on 07/14/2019 4:36:13 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, fresh from a bitter public spat with top House Democrats, unloaded on President Trump Sunday afternoon after he suggested that unnamed progressive congresswomen "go back" to their own "corrupt" and "crime infested" countries of origin, then "come back and show us how it is done."

"You can't leave fast enough," Trump had written.

Ocasio-Cortez's fiery Twitter return barrage could be the call to action that unifies a party currently divided along establishment and progressive lines, observers said, even as some analysts blamed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for laying the groundwork for Trump's remarks.

"Mr. President, the country I 'come from,' & the country we all swear to, is the United States," Ocasio-Cortez wrote. "But given how you’ve destroyed our border with inhumane camps, all at a benefit to you & the corps who profit off them, you are absolutely right about the corruption laid at your feet."

Ocasio-Cortez continued: "You are angry because you don’t believe in an America where I represent New York 14, where the good people of Minnesota elected @IlhanMN, where @RashidaTlaib fights for Michigan families, where @AyannaPressley champions little girls in Boston. You are angry because you can’t conceive of an America that includes us. You rely on a frightened America for your plunder. You won’t accept a nation that sees healthcare as a right or education as a #1 priority, especially where we’re the ones fighting for it. Yet here we are."

Trump's tweets did not name any specific congresswomen. Ocasio-Cortez, who is of Puerto Rican descent, was born in the Bronx, New York, and raised in suburban Westchester County.

Did Trump actually say countries of origin or home country? I’ve seen conflicting reports.

She is descended from the Spaniards that eradicated the native population of Puerto Rico.

She is no more colorful than I am.

This AOC cartoon is so funny to watch, and the animation is so life-like.

What exactly constitutes a "person of color," anyway?

Some of those dingbats are black, but AOC and that Tlaiba nitwit look kind of diarrhea-colored to me.

He was talking about the representative of al-Shabab from MN, who is originally from the worst country on earth.
The representative of Hamas from MI was born here, even though she still advocates for her parents homeland.
Precisely why the founders excluded the children of foreign nationals from being President with the natural born citizen requirement.

IMHO, Nancy has a real problem here. Cortez is way, way too outspoken for a freshman.

The entire ‘Squad’ is outrageous but Cortez leads the way, with Omar not far behind.

Omar is the one who should be speaking to President Trump’s tweet on this. She’s the only one not from the USA.

Problem is that AOC is moving the Democratic Party further left, rather than center left it was under Slick Willy.

“What exactly constitutes a “person of color,” anyway?”

A “person of color” can be identified by uniformly having brown skin, brown eyes, and brown hair, and a uniform political philosophy, and the subgroups only eat food from their regions. People of non color have every color of hair from red and blonde to auburn and black. Every eye color from blue to green to grey. And have skin tones ranging from pale to olive. Also non people of color have extremely varied political opinions, and do not just vote for a single party. People of color are considered wise, and good, where people of non color are considered stupid and evil.

Here's exactly what he said in three consecutive tweets:

People are trying to put words in his mouth that he didn't say, as if Trump's comments need to be mitigated and watered down. They don't. President Trump said what he meant and he meant what he said.

It doesn't matter one whit if only Ilhan Omar is an actual immigrant. The rest of them are not American in their values and loyalties. Who cares if they were born here. They're as much foreign to the American values that made this country great as Omar is.

Personally, I agree wholeheartedly with what the President tweeted. Ilhan Omar can go Make Somalia Great Again while the rest of the "squad" are free to join her.
