WASHINGTON - U.S. President Donald Trump escalated his attacks against four first-year Democratic congresswomen on Monday after earlier telling them to “go back” to the “places from which they came” in a series of weekend tweets that Democrats and other critics called racist.
“Why don’t they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came,” he tweeted. “Then come back and show us how ... it is done.” On Monday, Trump renewed his attack, calling on the congresswomen to apologize to him, the United States and Israel for “the terrible things they have said,” a reference to past controversial comments the congresswomen have made.
Pelosi and other Democrats came to the women’s defense Sunday, saying Trump was exacerbating white nationalism and sideling racial minorities with “xenophobic” rhetoric.
Always sweaty and disgusting and ignorant
This white supermacist saying our Master remarks r supported by us d white supermacist, n r not ofensiva,
He is a racist too
Did you all see the brown stuff on that dude's nose ?
What a load of bollocks!!!, the man is a 'paid' YES man!!!
They were racist, sexist and stupid, we know what we heard him say, we saw his tweets. We are not fools to swallow this lame excuse.
Well USA, you voted for him... lol... Hilary Clinton must have been so hated.
Really?! Elaine Chao is Mitch McConnell’s wife. Who is one of Trump’s biggest supporters? Mitch McConnell. No mystery why she is part of his administration. She also gets her husband’s projects approved too. Par for the course in this administration.
uhhuh
he meant presidents intent is anyway racist
Says the Fake Christian Racist.. I believe him as if Sarah Fuckabee Slander is saying it herself.
Having a friend from a group he hates (non-white) isn't incompatible with racism. Racism is pre-judgement of superiority that may not apply to the individual. People who use the 'I have a friend' fallacy have only managed to overcome their racism against that one person.
MarcSHORT is an absolute disgrace to America. Just like the rest of the racist GOP !!
Waco White House with Koresh Trump!!!!! SMFH
How pathetic
Sit down white man. You have no say in this!
He's getting less and less enthusiastic with each retelling of the script.
Said another white dude who razor shaves his head...
But I'm sure he thinks everything Ilhan says is. These fruads that prostitute themselves aren't worth listening to on any subject.
Listen - if Trump supporters haven't admitted by now that their beloved hero is a racist, then nothing he can say or do will change their minds. He could do the SOTU wearing a hood and white robe, and they'd call us all snowflakes for complaining.
Another foolish toady take the stage.
You are absolutely correct squire, you don’t think.
Go back to bed
Pence didn't have the courage to call down Trump for his outrageous statements, so Marc Short, your the fall guy. So much to answer for Pence.
The intire WhiteHouse is a Racist waist of garbage
Clearly marctshort thinks the American public is as stupid as the RacistInChief & FakeChristian VP. One Asian woman in a sea of white men in the Cabinet does not diversity make. Does SecElaineChao know she was a TOKEN hire? These ppl are not only racist, theyre RIDICULOUS.
Thats the same problem Trump has, I don’t think.
You obviously don't understand the definition of intent then.
Not racist ? It’s white supremacist comment !
Does he not realize how ludicrous he sounds, attempting to defend the indefensible?
So you're saying he's racist without even trying?
'Intent' - protecting loud mouths, law breakers, and their lawyers since the very dawn of law itself.
Yes and Pens will go to hell too! Won't that be a surprise for the Fake Christian!!!
Reminds me of George Costanza befriending Karl the exterminator so he can prove to his boss that he's not a racist.
That’s the problem - HE DOESN’T THINK!
Who cares what this guy says? Pence is nothing but a co-conspirator and lap dog of Trump. Obviously the Pence staff must fall in line or be fired.
Every intention to be a racist! RacistPresident RacistTrump
Brushing off incidences like this, as an isolated event, is the same tactic GOP uses to stave off the growing necessity of combating climate change. We can’t let these red flags keep us from facing the red herrings that are effecting the fate of our humanity and our environment.
Omg. Really? 🤯
Do they think the rest of the world is stupid? It's pure drivel trotted out for the hardcore base who know exactly what he meant and not only agree but approve.
Boooooooooooooooooo
And LindseyGrahamSC spewed out hatred on fox, lying and fear mongering and saying he wants to destroy the Democratic Party. He literally said “ that’s how we destroy the Democratic Party. “Words matter. He just said he wants to destroy half of the Americans.
His intent is not the point. His words matter. And his words were the most un-American words I have heard, save for the disgusting ones he said at the White House today.
When he’s in the private sector he’ll write a book condemning realDonaldTrump but until then it’s don’t believe your eyes or ears.
Of course not - he’s merely parroting the same attitude of superiority over anyone not a white male from Papa & Grampa (the guy who ran a brothel during the Alaska gold rush)..
Racist!! NYCJT2
Getting really tired of the defense of this. It's bad enough he says it at all. But...seriously?
🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼
I suppose it’s easy to do this if you believe trump is right. He probably prayed with Pence about it and Jesus told them to go for it.
Right . . . and I don't think you are BALD. You just have no hair on your head. Maybe you intended that or not. However, you ARE BALD.
He has one Asian that’s all he has to defend his words? An Asian who is a corrupt as they come and bends to the will of her husband Mitch. That one Asian?
Skinhead dressed up in a suit and tie - is still a skinhead.
Can’t spin this one dude - no matter how hard you try
You know, quoting these a$$hats as though they had any credibility makes you complicit
Also I don’t know how to read or understand even simple language
Another racist.
Stop enabling. You are just as disgusting
wh koolaid drinker
the President only speaks his CORRUPT and contaminated thoughts. It is about the place where he is from! FOR THESE INDIVIDUALS MONEY AND POWER IS EVERYTHING! They have no moral connection with the rest of humanity! And the people just rewarded them with more power ! INSANITY 😫
OMG, what is a wrong with these people, are they ALL SPINELESS, or just STUPID?
What else would we expect him to say? He’s just a shill for the complicit VP creep.
Ohhh these men...
President Trump should pull-up the Operation Paperclip records and send all the failed nazis back to their country.
Obama was way more racist than Trump. Don’t me cause I’m not buying it.
🤮
Democrats aren’t getting anywhere calling any Republicans racist, they have been calling every Republican around racist for years, people are tired of the constant personal allegations
What planet was he born on that these statements aren’t racist? This was done as shiny object to keep us from watching Pence at the border facility
Why can't we hear from the grand wizard himself and not someone that irons his robe. Marc Short who?
100per cent race hate and trump never help syria rebels because of hope money orders from putin and syria rebels where brown black humans 500,000dead,
evil man 2 of them trying to turn usa great into white nation only like poland and italy pm tryin to do
Why should we always have to guess to the intent with Trump? Sometimes words are misconstrued but come on. This happens all the time with him.
It's the whole love-it-or-leave-it, of-you-are -not-with-me-you're-against-me attitude. Being in Congress is supposed to be about service to your country. People have a patriotic duty to be involved in public discourse and problem solving.
HAHAHAHA! How much can one squirm when defending the indefensible?
I don’t think ...? Well we KNOW Trump is a goddamn racist.
When you're a shit yourself realDonaldTrump ... Guess what's coming out ? Poor thing... 😱😱😱 It's too subtle for you... 🙄🙄🙄 I put it in emoji 💩💩💩
Short is right, he doesn't think.
How do these people keep a straight face?
There is no way to put a positive spin on the rhetoric that all vocal politics has portrayed. Yet Trumps extremism is racist, and their Nazi concentration comparison is being accepted by the mob as fact? If Trumps a racist so are the congress women who use profiling!

Says the racist... Trump supporter =racist
Let's get the opinion from the white guy whose boss just tweeted racist things! No surprise on his comments!
Does this guy think most of the public is as willfully ignorant as the Republi-con base?
More lies from this administration
Trump wasn't being a Racist...he was being a Realist. These women are Anti-American and should not serve if they don't like their own country. What the point?
It must really suck when your primary job responsibility is to be a sniffling little worm. He's good at it, though!
So VP your chief of staff is racist! You should request resignation SpeakerPelosi please help rid of us this racism
👎
Shameful soulless person
Guy whoring for a racist says what now?!
This administration’s defense = Elaine Chou Corrupt Trump Cabinet-member who fronts for Chinese businesses run by her father and proposals approved by her husband Speaker of the Senate! That makes sense or should I say “cents”?
What a sleaze ball enabler.
Says the racist.
Dude, will you guys stop bickering over whether this shit is racists or not?! It IS by the way.
Then just what is it?
Does Marc Short wear his knee pads under or over his pants?
he has been shown to be wrong.....within minutes of this statement.
Another looser and deflector...clean our house!
Marc Short is looking thru rose colored glasses. GOP
Put some sunblock on that head. We can’t risk any more brain cells frying.
Would you disagree with your boss's boss.hmmmmmm. If you do you get fired if you defend the guy you get top keep your job,hm... What to,what to...ah ..I got it. I'm gonna sell my soul and betray my values,ethics and everything moral about me so I can keep my job
Why all the faux “tuff guy” looking bald dudes in WhiteHouse .... oh wait, racist MAGA skinhead appeal. GOP
Please
Defending the indefensible
LOL Then why are you defending the racist remark?
The Asian cabinet member is married to Mitch McConnell dumbass. The only reason she has that job is to make the cabinet look like it is not all white nor all male.
i'm with him on this one , he just spoke the truth.... if you want a system or something to be accepted , you have to go and survive in the area that system or something originates from.
Marc Short “ Weasel Man”
🐂💩
Trump is surrounded by bullshitters who lie on his behalf
You lie well. Just like FakeChristian
“Then come back and show us how it’s done”, i.e., if naive leftists are so dissatisfied with the US political system, why don’t they go try out their preferred system elsewhere, and then come back and show us how well it works
Well then. Mr. Short should go back to his country then!
Spoken like a true Nazi skinhead🤦♀️
Gaslight much?
Your kidding right? There is no other way to interpret it!
Probably attends white power rallies on weekends
A YES Man!
Shameful liar - Trump, McConnell, Pence, et al are white supremacists. Whether they support white supremacy out of greed, racism or to spread their preferred religious beliefs is immaterial.
That’s crap trump meant to be racist
These Congresswomen are Anti-Semitic and think the 9/11 was no big deal and last week called Nancy Pelosi a Racist
This bald guy needs to go back home and grow some hair before he starts commenting on behalf of the WH. Oh no, was that baldist? Not my intent!
I've noticed racists never intend to be racist and are more outraged at being called racist than actual racism.
The only thing I can agree with your statement Marc Short is: “You don’t think”
Like always been, after he said something, some body has to come out and translated.
Really!
Pence chief of staff is simply wrong. RacistInChief RacistPresident detention ICERaids Birtherism never ended it just mutated into racism and xenophobia policy and practice.
It is what it is.... no point trying to spin this. Trump is a racist and so is the GOP...no one..not one called him up on it.
Sorry, hard to understand that language when it’s so weighed down with spin and blatant lies.
It’s not about race, it’s about attitude. Anything to put on a Democratic show in Congress instead of proposing solutions.
I call BS
He's a real POS, along with his boss and his bosses boss.
Yeah we believe you! 🙄
Nice of you to reinforce this ludicrous justification without comment or context.
Regardless it is wrong to say.
Is 'some of my best friends/employees/colleague are...' still an accepted defense? 'well he doesn't direct a racist twitter tirade at every minority person he knows just the ones that don't know their place' is not much of a defense either
His 'intent' does not give him a pass....It just showed his true colors. ImpeachTheMF
Marc cut your crap
Those 4 congresswomen are Jew haters.
He's looking down an awful lot as he speaks. The mental wheels are turning. He's not giving straightforward answers. His facial micro-expressions can be interpreted as signs of anxiety.
Then you sir are an even bigger fool than I thought you were. And I thought you were a big one to start with.
He just asked all the brown congresswomen to beat it....whats wrong with that right Holy hell....
Anyone who defends Trump’s comments really are off the charts when it comes to morality and ethics.
yes, the president learned english reading an english translation of Mein Kampf in school. He doesn’t have mal intent. It’s just the only language he knows
Usually, when one has to say the intent of something isn’t racist, that means the substance of the thing is most definitely racist.
Between this comment and your comments on the detention centers you have refuted your much touted Christianity. You are a blot that will move people away from Jesus, because of the way you refuse so speak out on racism and mistreatment of immigrants.
At least the congresswomen didn’t tell Donald trump to go back to Germany, a country which fought two wars against America. But to be fair, these congresswomen were being hypocrites by ignoring problems of radical Islam.
The fact that he has not addressed his racist comments speaks for itself. He opened a wound to everyone who has heard these words personalty,or felt that attitude before. Business as usual leading with hate.
Hahahahaha ahah get your head outofyourbutt!
Absolutely unbelievable!!!!
Marc Short one of Trump's many staff appointed to justify his erratic behaviour.
All lies...
Marc Short has to come out and defend a racist.
Hey dude it’s racist
America's got a huge problem. Demise will not be from enemies-it will be from within. Roman replay- rampant immorality, decadence & deceit. Drunk on power, narcissistic dna, bloodthirsty both nationally & internationally.
We have a serious problem with the Republican Party. They have all lost their spines to stand up and be the party of values that they once claimed to be.
BS. He has a LONG history of dog whistles. RacistInChief TrumpIsARacist RacistPresident
Skinhead lol
Who are the four? Who came up with this number?
Oh stop giving these fascists air!!
This is the Trump administration in a nutshell. He says something horrible, people insist he doesn't mean it, then he backs it up with an action, people are quiet
Oh that’s ok then - he didn’t MEAN to be racist so his racism is fine. JFC
Oh oh oh, Trump's got an Asian woman in his cabinet, and that makes him not a racist... The Nazi's had Jews help run Auschwitz, that didn't make the world say, 'Oh, we didn't realize that, sorry Mister Hitler.' Jerkface.
He is RacistTrump
“I don’t think” he at least got that part right.
It's pretty clear to me he is, but only to people of color.
Bullshit! This administration has no low!
You are referring to Mitch Mconnell's wife
True; but it's racist in intent in *every* way.
translation: mr president said some racist things but he did not meant it. so what is the problem, nation?!
That man is an idiot ...
The news could’ve been like hey these are really good people. But everyone knows they’re not and they hate America so they call trump a racist
No suprise there Marc Short....You wouldn't amdit Trumple was racist if he was wearing a point hood at a Klan meeting, holding a tiki torch, you would claim that it was a prayer meeting that he was attending. Just another Trumpliclown.
A racist will never call out another racist.
Ilhan Omar Hates US , Love Sharia Law , go back to Africa, be a congresswoman in Somalia
OMG!!! Please! trumpworld
Reminds me of Saddam PR guy, with US tanks behind him, declaring 'americans are not in Baghdad'
What I continuously fail to understand is how Republicans are OK with this racist, sexist, ignoramus continuously putting down our country (our policies, our citizens, our laws, our Fed, our Press, etc.), but hypocritically denounces anyone else who points out our flaws.
Tortured logic: offering one example to disprove a broader concern. Btw - Chow, given the conflicts in her role with those of her husband’s, is not a great example.
POTUS DJT realDonaldTrump VP just spoke the truth and we all know that truth hurts and some people can't take that humbly. The numbers of those immigrants is scary that's why the next census should ask about citizenship. Porous borders must be sealed .
What was his ‘intent’ then
Ohh sweetie, then your white privilege is getting in the way.
Liar
“don’t believe your eyes and ears”. He very clearly referred to women (plural) not a woman (singular). Whilst scrambling to 'clean up on isle 45' was expected, gas-lighting is reprehensible.
Hey we are not your sheep we know what he ment.....no need to clarify, seems you guys do that often
'Trump's racist tweets were not racist,' lies spokesman.
How do these people sleep at night, is their pay worth their souls and dignity?
What did anyone think this paid enabler would say? Was the birther insult also not racist? Please. 🙄
Hmmm. I think this is a pretty textbook example of how to write a racist tweet with a heavy dash of misogyny.
Literally using the 'the president has non-white friends' argument
This guy is lodged all the way up that orange keester 😂
'Go back to where you came from!' is chanted by racist, xenophobic bigots all across this great land. Spend half a day at Super WalMart and you will hear it. It is indefensible.
Mr. Clean lies.
The new low: selective racism
Marc Short is wrong. Vote for Democrats 2020.
No of course he’s not being racist at all 🤬 He is an unpleasant individual that for some reason appears to get away with saying the most vile things. 🤬🤬🤬🤬
No, it's not in any way racist, it is in every way!
Get these racists and their enablers out of our government!!
Intent doesn’t matter in discussions about race. And his intent was absolutely racist, as he is an unrepentant racist. Anything else I can clear up for you today, Sparky?
Funny how often Trump staff has to say things like “he didn’t mean what he said” pathetic
More maga moron manure.
Really?!
So patronizing. We have eyes, we have ears, we have our own brains. Don’t try to tell us what we see is something else.
You must be mad
There is NO WAY to put a positive spin on what Trump said. Stop trying.
In summation, I don’t think Trump’s intent was apparent to even Trump. Trump seldom knows what he says or tweets so how can we ascribe intent where there is no awareness!
Wonder what God or Jesus or the next profit after Jesus, Muhammad all have to say about this?
He meant to say the gentle Congresswomen should go back to their COUNTIES - for the weekend - spend quality time with their families and constituents.
Really.
Fry one racist to another
Oh thank you. I really needed a good laugh today!!
Don’t you? Then what the hell is it?
Republicans be like......
...said a skinhead in a suit.
Too dumb to understand how his rhetoric can be perceived. Got it.
Liar, lying, defending a racist.
Full on racist remarks made by trmp.
I don't care what Marc Short has to say about anything!
Bullshit! Obviously he condones this as well
Intent is meaningless when morals are nonexistent
Come again? Are you hard of hearing? English a second language? What part wasnt racist.
