The president said the Democrats should 'go back' to their countries, leading House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to say he's being 'xenophobic' and that the House will formally condemn the sitting president.

The U.S. House of Representatives will vote on a formal resolution to officially condemn recent tweets by President Donald Trump aimed at four freshmen progressives that have been widely condemned as racist and xenophobic, according to Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi in a letter to colleagues Monday.

"Let me be clear, our Caucus will continue to forcefully respond to these disgusting attacks," Pelosi told her Democratic colleagues in a letter, which was released by her office."Our Republican colleagues must join us in condemning the President's xenophobic tweets. Please join us in supporting a forthcoming resolution sponsored by Congressman Tom Malinowski, who was born abroad, and Congressman Jamie Raskin, along with other Democratic Members born abroad.

"If you're not happy here, then you can leave," he said."As far as I'm concerned, if you hate our country, if you're not happy here, you can leave."

Oh noes harsh words, that'll stop him! Do your constitutionally legal duty and impeach the asshole already.

First of all his statements were not racist. Second you have bigoted, anti American, anti-Semites and those who love ISIS, which you will not remove, and you have the nerve?

When will they condemn anti Jew ststements

Oh hold my pearls, that’s extreme from the House.

This is more of a 'feel good' action rather than having an impact on Trump the Tyrant. I guess you have to do something.

Maybe they should condemn AntiFa instead HouseDemocrats

Madam Speaker SpeakerPelosi. Please Remember to mention in the condemnation that the House recognizes this is a flimflam slide-of-hand strategy meant to distract from CHILDREN IN CAGES, playing golf at a cost of over $300M, and today’s firing of hundreds of government scientists

This is the very least TeamPelosi can do especially since she started the attacks on the reps. ResignPelosi

Dump needs to be sanctioned and then impeached. He is trying to normalize hateful rhetoric and has taken America back sixty years.

Well I think they are going to have to do more than that

How about we start talking impeachment? WTF does it take? I mean, all C did was lie about a bj. Trump has lied, cheated, betrayed, tortured and hated enough!!

You know, as long as they're at it why don't they go ahead and impeach him?

Ooooh Harsh!

' beneath the dignity '......

Roll call!!! Don’t allow the GOP cowards to hide within a voice call. SpeakerPelosi do this routinely so every representative’s voting record is public!

This gesture makes Trump so small, so little, so tiny in the eyes of the world. I love these powerful women.

Wow, a sternly worded letter. That should fix the problem....

While a toothless gesture to a RacistPresident realDonaldTrump who has zero shame. This DOES force REPUBLICAN House members to reveal themselves. .HouseGOP GOPLeader This definitely make for some EXCELLENT 2020 Campaign Ads. Make sure to Thank your 'Dear Leader' Trump.

I hope the House goes for a censure motion. Google it to keep up! RedAFHatAF OrangeAFHatAF

When are these dozen Democrats scheduling their tour of homeless tent cities in the California streets? Can we get more funding now? They can go home and wash as much as they want. They are not needed or wanted here.

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
