WASHINGTON - United States President Donald Trump did not name the lawmakers he denounced as"'progressive' Democrat Congresswomen who originally came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe."
In recent days, Mr Trump has disparaged several first-year House Democrats - Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Representative Rashida Tlaib of Michigan, Representative Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts and Representative Ilhan Omar of Minnesota - who are widely known as"the squad."All four of them are women of colour; all but one are US-born.
Ms Omar has been vocal about her life as a refugee who fled Somalia and eventually settled in America, only to be disappointed with the country she found. More than any of the others in her freshman group, Ms Omar - one of the first two Muslim women in Congress along with Ms Tlaib - has forcefully used her personal story to make the argument that loving America does not require an acceptance of its shortcomings.
Ms Tlaib warned Trump in a tweet,"I am fighting corruption in OUR country. . . . Keep talking, you'll be out of the WH soon."
