During an exchange with reporters as he left the White House, President Donald Trump made false accusations against both Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Rep. Ilhan Omar, two of the four Democratic members of Congress against whom he launched a racist "go back" attack earlier in the week.

    1. @Carlos Rivas…Don’t know where you got those numbers…but I’ll give you a hint, Fox isn’t reliable.I couldn’t find one reliable poll that had black support for Trump over 12%, Latinos were all under 25%, Asian were all under 26%. White support for Trump was all under 48%. You’re delusional boy.

    2. @Mr Jones but thanks for providing me your reliable numbers. Impressive, for trump being a racist bastard……he still gets a significant lots of support from minorities according to YOUR numbers. The truth is trump isn’t racist……just has zero political savvy. I know Donald, he is good guy. Just wish trump would call me to handle his PR problems.

    3. @Mr Jones oh one of your guys ” Bernie ” is not paying his campaign staff adequately. What hypocrites. Wow, I was surprised that CNN reported that. Maybe CNN is not totally fake news.

    4. @Carlos Rivas…So, Trump isn’t a racist? What exactly do you base that opinion on? I tend to rely on how people act, and what they say to determine their character. From Trump’s comment about Haiti, El Salvador and African countries, as he put it, “Why are we having all these people from shithole countries come here?…to Trump then suggesting that the United States should instead bring more people from countries such as Norway [White people]. Trump made racist comments about Judge Gonzalo Curiel, “I have a judge who is a hater of Donald Trump, a hater. He’s a hater,”…saying he couldn’t get a fair decision from Judge Curiel because he was “of Mexican heritage.” Decades ago Trump was successfully prosecuted for housing discrimination, when he refused to rent to black families. Fred Trump, Donald’s father was a card carrying hood wearing member of the KKK.
      Not only does Trump have zero political savvy…he’s a compulsive liar, he’s a repugnant misogynist, and a complete IDIOT. Trump is doing his best to deconstruct environmental protections in favor of policies that benefit industry, regardless of the health consequences for the country….and he’s doing it for personal and political profit.
      But back to Trump’s racism. He launched his campaign talking about Mexican “rapists”…and subsequently stirred up xenophobia against many other groups, especially Muslims.
      Trump’s racist pitch succeeded, why??…because the republican party is overwhelmingly white, and has relied heavily on dog whistle appeals to racism since the early 1960’s.
      Trump is appealing to the aggrieved privilege of white republicans who feel threatened by America’s changing demographics and challenges to the traditional racial hierarchy in the age of Obama.
      White racists see themselves as benefitting from Trump’s proposal to shore up the old racist status quo. The racist value system deserves to be challenged, but they aren’t being fooled by Trump. They know exactly what he’s selling…and they like it.

  1. I read this today : Ironically, the people telling Americans if they don’t like their government they should leave , are the same people telling asylum seekers if they don’t like their government they should stay and fix it . .
    I just love it

    1. So Don the Con is betting that you, and the majority of voters, are racists too. Hope you are not because as a democratic republic country we are over.

  2. In order to perform a more perfect union requires constant
    tweaking, and yes open criticism, otherwise this nation may very well wither
    and die on the vine…

    1. @Mr Jones lol what an idiot. I was clearly making fun of snowflakes who are offended when their pen falls to the ground such as yourself. 😁

  3. Doesn’t anyone in the republican party worry about, how to go back to normal politics? This is becomming a populist frenzie…

    1. Henk Breukelaar seriously you criticizing President Trump and think the Republican Party needs to be worried about going back to normal politics. What is normal politics? According to Liberal DemoKKKrats running for President it’s making sure that not just Women but Transgender Women have a Right to Abortion. So basically Democrats think normal is a Man having an abortion, ok got it 👍🏿. How about normal being every single Democrat running for President saying that they’d give FREE HEALTHCARE TO ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS or basically free healthcare to every person in the world because they all are also for Open Borders. Is normal Democrats not being happy with regular Baby Murdering(Abortion)so that’s why they pushing for 3rd Trimester Abortions and even Abortions immediately after Birth. That’s crazy Normal Huh. Is normal politics u talking about politics where anytime someone doesn’t agree with u or someone on the other side politically doesn’t agree with u u label that person a racist, sexist, xenophobic, bigot etc. because that’s Democrats #1 Political Strategy. Is normal Socialism you tell me. Your comment just shows how completely Evil and Pathetic all Liberal DemoKKKrats are. In case u weren’t aware because that’s another common thing in the Democratic Party. It’s like u must posses this quality in order to become a Liberal. Which besides no Self Responsibility have no Self Awareness and have to be a 100% a Hypocrite. So keep thinking that’s normal because it’s that and everything I just pointed out as to why President Trump for 3 years has made u all look like idiots while also knocking it out of the park. It’s also why Election night 2020 you idiots are gonna bare witness to the most lopsided Presidential Election ever as President Trump wins Re-election. Which after it will be 4 more years of u assholes spewing hate and not learning anything. Which will be the reason that Donald Trump Jr. will be the next president

    2. Really? It’s the Republican party your worried about when thinking of “normal” politics?Are you blind and deaf?

    1. Which is why we need The Squad, because they are powerful and diverse and tolerant enough to stop DRUMPF!

  4. Democrats should not let trump and his dirty tricksters determine what their election agenda and message is. That’s what his is trying to do, through out the filthy message then get them and media to focus on his filth and not his failures. It is exactly what he did to win the GOP nomination in 2016….the sick “nicknames,” the lies about all the other candidates, backed by the Russian efforts in hacking and social media. This upcoming election is crucial to the survival of our democracy and we must watch and refute every dirty deal and trick that trump and his dirty campaign throw out.

    1. @Severin When Trump decended down that escalator to announce his candidacy he paid people $50 to stand around. If you’re interested do some research. By the way Severin if that’s is your picture Trump people see you as part of the problem but that’s probably not your picture and you’re probably a Russian troll.

  5. Blood sucking Media making a BIG DEAL of Rally participants emboldening the speaker and persons’ views who the Rally is organized for!!!

    1. Captain Ahab Ph, you seem to feel safe. When things start getting worse nobody is safe on the streets. Living a normal every life.

  6. Isn’t it funny how CNN’s so-called “journalists” insult conservatives?
    But if I go to the youtube channel of CNN, I am mostly not allowed to leave a comment under the vids.
    Here yoy can see how liberal the liberals really are. 😉

  7. Trump flip-flops, backtracks, walks back, reverses, denies, lies, fabricates…..his supports are addicted…they cant get enough!

  8. Patriots ? LOL. You mean TRASH Like himself! American Trash will “Chant” for Trump.
    How Primitive ! Unfortunately too many people are being brainwashed into self-destruction.
    Is this a policy comprising DEPOPULATION?

  9. Trump is so privileged that the first job he ever applied for is the President of the United States.

  10. How about their accusations against Pelosi? No airtime for that one, huh?

    CNN, the most trusted name in Fake News.

  11. Trump wanted to put the spotlight on these congress woman to show the people how extremist the democratic party has become. And you all bite it. People managing CNN are not very smart.
