Trump now says he's fine with the “send her back” chant and insists the people chanting it are “incredible patriots”

that he seemingly disavowed his rallygoers' offensive “send her back” chant directed at Representativewalked back his comments Friday, revealing to no one's surprise that he's actually totally cool with the racist comments after all. When asked about his previously stated “unhappiness” with the chant, Trump responded, “No, you know what I'm unhappy with—the fact that a congresswoman can hate our country.

“I’m unhappy when a congresswoman goes and says, I’m going to be the president’s nightmare,” Trump said, referring to recent comments made by Omar that Trump's “nightmare is seeing the beautiful mosaic fabric of our country welcome someone like me as their member of Congress” and that “we are going to continue being a nightmare to this president because his policies are a nightmare to us.”

“She’s lucky to be where she is, let me tell you,” the president responded Friday. “And the things that she has said are a disgrace to our country.” One group the president isn't unhappy with? His supporters leading the chant, whom the president hailed Friday as “incredible patriots.” “Those are incredible people,” Trump said. “Those are incredible patriots.”

Trump's about-face on his embrace of the racist chant isn't exactly shocking, given that video of the rally clearly contradicts the president's lies Thursday that he told the crowd to stop and “started speaking very quickly” after it began. It does, however, seemingly fly in the face of his advisers—including Vice President

What else did you expect from a RACIST? Americans get rid of this guy in 2020.

This is pure propaganda. Labeling rally goers as “racist” is defamation and slander. You don’t know anything about them. Vanity Fair has become a desperate outlet that publishes prejudice opinions in a pathetic attempt to proselytize the weak. Propaganda

Well - let's take it a step further. Maybe you should be tweeting about Jeffrey Epstein or The House voting to hold Barr & Ross in contempt instead of chasing Trumps shiny stupid object?

Instead of reporters asking Trump if he is a racist. They need to ask Trump how his racism is affecting America and of that bothers him and why he, in fact, is a racist.

Schizophrenic behaviour. Sorry, that’s an insult to people suffering from schizophrenia.

They’re not racist.

I can see that going back in declarations is not only a specialty of jairbolsonaro...

Quite the tap dancer, isn’t he? 🤯

VF, Trump will have to deal w sane Republicans. He tried to keep Republicans off the primary ballot, but leaves Bill Weld as his only opponent. Weld will win primaries. Some GOPs are sick of senseless trade war & racism. Report Weld/Trump heads up polls. reversethedystopia

How the hell can a country be run by this nut!

don has no understanding of what a true patriot is - being 'fine' with threatening an American congressperson who disagrees with him by telling obvious lies about her is indicative of his own lack of patriotism, profound ignorance, desperation, and derangement..

Not to make excuses for the hateful, racist crap that comes out of his mouth, but how is this country not having serious discussions on the President's declining mental health?

Trump got jealous of the airport reception that Rep. Omar got.

“I never said that. Nobody anywhere has proof that I said that. Wait, they like that I said that? Then yeah, I said that - I totally said that.” What a nutcase.

No kidding - we know. No consequences so it will only escalate.

The people chanting it are rather racists!.

He has dementia.
