Trump campaign's Mercedes Schlapp says Trump is 'not a racist' as Trump tweets new attacks on congresswomen

An aide for President Donald Trump's re-election campaign appeared on ABC News Sunday and attempted to defend her boss from accusations that he discriminates toward people of color—a charge leveled by increasingly prominent voices following the president's string of racist tweets and ahost George Stephanopoulos

Schlapp, who previously served as the White House director of strategic communications, suggested that Trump still condemned the cries from his supporters, despite the president seemingly. As Schlapp was offering this defense, Trump continued tweeting attacks Sunday morning against Omar and U.S. representatives Ayanna Pressley, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Rashida Tlaib, all of whom are women of color.

How come when the congresswomen attack Trump it’s not worded as such in your headlines? That liberal word play spin is REAL!

As with all narcissists, the cat fight they trigger by blurting bullshit is more important to them than the subject itself. Narcissists really get off on chaos.

mercedesschlapp can you please stop telling us lies? It is bad enough realDonaldTrump tells us so many lies & then you regurgitate the same tired line all the other GOP talking heads use because you all have no moral code to speak of.

If Trump isn't a racist, then what the hell is he? Come on, take the flippin' blinders off. Stop gaslighting. What? Do you all think we're blind, can't hear or can't read? Really?! Stop the nonsense, and own up to the fact that the bully-boss in the WH is an all out racist.

lol 😂 as if ! He denies it every week. Why?

Bernie Madoff says “trump is not a con man”

I agree and have been vocal in saying he is g racist and his tweets are not of a racist nature

demorat inspired conspiracy theory news As usual

Their are plenty of white congressmen and women that have criticized trump and his agenda. He chooses to attack the 4 freshman congresswomen just because they are Muslim and Hispanic. That plays well with trumps white nationalists supporters.

Mercedes better get on board. Trumps embracing his racism and he's about run for president as an openly racist candidate. . mercedesschlapp

So it's not possible to argue with someone of a different color without being a racist?

Of course he isn’t which is why the country in a complete uproar.

Defending a Nazi. What a crap job.

Get them on record, this is not the first and not the last time he will express his racism. If anything this is just the beginning of his campaign centered around racism, xenophobia, and misogyny.

AGAIN....It is NOT about race....It is 100% about anti-American behavior!!!!!!

mercedesschlapp, 'Remain calm, realDonaldTrump isn't racist. REMAIN CALM! PLEASE! NOTHING 2 SEE HERE SO PLEASE, PLEASE REMAIN CALM!'
