NEW: Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to ABC: If GOP lawmakers 'go on the record condoning the president telling women of color to go back to their own country, I invite them to, because we will win the 2020 election.'

House Democrats moved to formally rebuke President Donald Trump's attacks against four Democratic congresswomen of color, readying a Tuesday night vote on a measure condemning his"racist" Twitter attacks telling the progressive lawmakers to"go back" to their countries.

The measure, introduced by Rep. Tom Malinowski, D-N.J., who was born in Poland, is titled"Condemning President Trump's racist comments directed at Members of Congress." "This is a disruptive distraction from the issues of care, concern and consequence to the American people," Pressley said. I am confident that every Member of Congress is a committed American. @realDonaldTrump's tweets from this weekend were racist and he should apologize. We must work as a country to rise above hate, not enable it.

In response, Ocasio-Cortez told ABC News that McConnell is"complicit in advancing racism in America" for not criticizing Trump." House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy told reporters on Tuesday that he didn't consider Trump's comments to be racist, and accused Democrats of trying to play politics against Trump with the resolution on the floor.

How about the rest of us condem Dems for doing nothing !

When you do-gooders finish tarping Trump over some congressional beginners badly in need of 'finishing school' congressional style, you can get back to what you were doing: complaining abt these very same beginners, spouting yr disapproval of their conduct. Walking in circles!

When U. R called names, U. fight back. President Trump has been called everything frm day one. The media is the biggest reason our country is so divided. The media report snippits of remarks, they report viloence & harassment to fuel their agenda. No reports of successes by Trump

Pathetic! If they want to be in the political arena, then do so. DO NOT USE YOUR DAMN RACE TO GET DRAMA STARTED. All of the guilty, I promise you IF YOU WANT TO HOLLER RACE, THEN THAT’S HOW YOU WILL TREAT THE WHITE PEOPLE WHEN WE NEED YOU. NOT!

He said Nothing about Race! Just because their skin is not White doesn't mean they get play the Race card!

Wasn’t AOC the one who used “women of color” when criticized by Pelosi? And also accused her of racism? Not condoning either remarks by AOC or Trump by if you are keeping score Trump has had more epithets thrown at him .

He said if you don’t like it here go back to your own country!! Nothing racist about that!!! Nothing!!!

Here they are the four that has been paid

Your lying to ppl it said if you don't like this country leave...like if you don't like a store leave, you don't like bf/if leave...you don't like the USA then get out...that's not racist that's honest. And honestly ABC if you don't like the USA you can get out too. SNS

Condemn away. Nobody gives a shit. Certainly not POTUS

What exactly is that going to accomplish? We already know what kind of person he is!

What a waste of time

OF COURSE THE COWARDLY REPUBLICANS WILL SAY NOT THEY ARE A JOKE TO AMERICA

What about medical cost in the U.S. being so high and doesn't go down. ever.

Stupid is as stupid does!

Scotland doesn’t want him neither does Germany send him to North Korea

That’s a nice bowl of word salad from Kamala ... as usual.

Funny how Trump wasn’t a racist until the Democratic Party lost control of itself

BOSS.

The lady who tried to smear Kavanaugh... no thank you

Darling, they don't want him either

He will go back.... To the White House!

Thank you. Only the truth heal our country.

By all means we need you to add you opinion....

Maybe they should check with half of the country who thinks he’s an ass but don’t want him impeached bc he’s the best if the worst.

and you day of judgment is coming soon amigos!

Trump was standing for the integrity of the United States. He knows who Omar truly is and he condemned her. She is a disgrace to the Democratic Party and the United States. Trump isn’t in the wrong. He took stand. And that’s a lone fact! Trump is standing against a fraud person

Democrats are RACIST

you are Anti-American treasonous fake news!

Go back home ! They dont like America ! They have Video of them talking crap about Trump and calling him bad words and nothing is said or done about them !

Impeach the $&$* is ok though.

How scary, you know why these people don't achieve anything? No impeachment, no winning elections, not a thing? Because they're lying. And there's still nice, smart people that can easily see childish people that don't even know how they got where they are, keep entertaining us

Fake outrage. BullySquad

Go back to where you came from Anti-American treasonous obstruction bigots.

we should send everyone in congress home. They haven’t done a thing.

The Alt Left Craze Crew.

This is racist too... Right?

Out of many you are none.

They are a joke! Get a life and get over it! If you are hate this country so much leave! Plenty of people promised to leave when he got elected and didn’t..We The People! TRUMP 2020!!

When will Omar be condemned, Talib and Cortez? These women are a cancer and need to go.

Since everyone must be some color.

Waste of time, She can say, go back where you came from, anyone can say that. Who says you can't!

Here we go again. The Democrats and most of the media apparently think it is racist to challenge any group made up of persons of color. This is what they applied when Obama was in office. 'Don't you dare criticize him!' How racist of them.

Which one? The one that wants to make USA a muslim caliphate under sharia law? The one that wants to open the borders and turn USA into a socialist 3rd world country? .......... this is what realDonaldTrump was elected to fight against.

Heels up Harris strikes again! Dems are the party of racism, bigotry, KKK and fascism.

She is a loser that pretends to be african American.doesn't even know who she is and wants to be president!

Queens?

P.O.T.U.S was born in New York

Hurry, get your foot in on the controversy Kamala!

Is telling someone to go back where they came from racist or not, because....Harris is using that term now. 🤔

The bronx is not a country STUPID

THIS!

Says descendant of slave owners

Send Melania back where she came from. Time for a first lady who speaks English.

We got all that now when will she discuss her controversial record of prosecuting minorities some without due process and others with tainted evidence.🤔

To go back to where you come from means if you don’t appreciate America and you don’t respect our government and you want USA To be a communist or socialist country then the verbiage means go to those countries and see how it is. remember we separate church from state.

There is a rock with his name on it!

send her to Mexico

FRAUD

There's nothing wrong with it. If someone doesn't like living here than they should go back.

Hey kamala you and all your cronies hate America Leave

Kamala needs to GTFO no one wants her for President

Inadequate white males on 3...2...1

Maybe Trump's trying to distract from JP Morgan Chase's freighter that got caught with 20 tons of cocaine.

AOC is not a woman of color but a Hispanic Caucasian

No lie there!

Trump came from the Playboy penthouse. That's where he found Kelly Anne 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆

Race wasn't mentioned at all by Trump, it's about DemocratsHateAmerica and their antisemite tropes

Go girl !!!

No thank you not voting racial card voting goverment policy's definitely not this nan a nan a junk

aoc Dems have a snowball's chance of winning in 2020. With every tweet the squad makes it pushes that goal post closer to Trump. Why do you think Pelosi called you out? Duh!

I’m not shocked it was just a matter of time .. just waiting to see who’s next .

The tweet literally didn’t say anything about gender or race. This is twisting words to cause, as how AOC put it, a “manufactured crisis”.

😂😂😂😂😂😃😃😃

Trump2020 MAGA KAGA2020

No yall are being targeted because of what you say and the fact that you dont really care about legal US citizens especially Omar so take that racist bs somewhere else and stop acting like victoms.

NewsRadio930 Yeah except that’s still not what he said..he’s telling people who hate this country so much are welcome to leave...you dimwits just happened to show up first

“Whether you are white...” OOPS! Let me just stop you right there. You and your “squad” are as anti-white as anyone has ever been. You’re the racists. You only accept white people that apologize for their skin color.

YOU DEMS HAVE GONE SOOO FAR TO THE LEFT THAT THERE IS NO COMING BACK. 2020 YOUR DAYS ARE NUMBERED.

43 years ago I learned in the Jimmy Carter / Gerald Ford election that most people vote with their wallets as their guide. 2020 will be no different.

How did this Libfuck got elected. Really

how stupid can one become

NEW: Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to : If GOP lawmakers 'go on the record condoning the president telling women of color to go back to their own country, I invite them to, because we will win the 2020 eating contest.'

She needs to give up politics and become a preacher.

Like to buy her for what she is worth and sell her for what she thinks she is worth......

She’s a waste of a congresswoman seat

AOC My dear you need to win your own reelection in 2020 and based on your record and numbers that is no sure thing. Close mouth, avoid the camera and rep your district.

The President did not say anything about color, so RepAOC’s comment is racist by introducing race into the conversation. Her braggadaccio about winning is ill-conceived, and premature. I predict that America will see through her misdirection and dissembling.

So she has time to talk to reporters? Sure seemed in a hurry yesterday when she was getting asked questions she didn’t want to answer.

Why does every news outlet give her airtime when she has such low, beyond low approval ratings. Like all the freshman 4 nobody likes them but you and every other outlet puts them on front and center. Come on,..

Oh muffin you are so attacked.

RepAOC you are not much of an American citizen. None of you are good patriotic citizens of the United States of America! Anti-American treasonous and divisive.

she's a special kind of stupid. pure entertainment

President Trump will be re-elected! And AOC will be voted out of office soon...deal with it! We The People!! TRUMP 2020!!!

She seems very serious & very sure. The question is are the midterms any indicator or should we just ignore that 2018 wrecking ball of an election?

The real people and the owners of America are the Americans, all the other colonizers who participated in the genocides of the Indians. So, they are not at home ...

Such a cartoon. Oh, and a liar.

Lol she's a bartender

You go girl!!😃🇺🇸👏

He didn’t just say women of color, he said anyone who hates America...., go home and fix where you came from and come back and show us how.

I didn’t know the USA was the only place white people come from. Such a stupid comment she makes.

Why does she keep referring to herself as a “woman of color”? I get it, she wants to paint Trump as a racist, but there’s more to these women than race. I’m not white and I’m a former refugee. When people talk shit to me, I don’t say “how dare you criticize me, a man of color?”

Alexandria, when was the last time you made a Holy Hour? Seriously, you need to take counsel with your prie-dieu.

🙄🙄🙄Good grief

Bernie Sanders: Nancy Pelosi shouldn't 'alienate' freshmen House DemocratsDemocratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders on Sunday waded into the rift between House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and a group of progressive freshmen lawmakers, stating that Pelosi ought to 'bring them in' rather than 'alienate them.' Yes, bring in the socialists with free everything, The Green Boondoggle et al (see Ontario for where that will lead you, bankruptcy is just around the corner for our province). Trump has a fairly easy path due to this successes, these policies make it even easier for him in 2020 So when he said 'the young people of this country', y'all took that to mean those four people and not young voters that might relate to them? For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. When you were dead in your transgressions and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He made you alive together with Him
