Trump’s Not Sorry – Doubles Down On Anti-American Congresswomen, ‘If You’re Not Happy Here, Then You Can Leave’

Trump just gave a press conference where he was asked about his tweets yesterday telling certain unnamed ‘progressive Democratic Congresswomen” to go back where they came from:

JUST IN: “I didn’t mention names,” President Trump says when asked about his tweets on Democratic congresswomen. “If you’re not happy here, then you can leave. As far as I’m concerned, if you hate our country, if you’re not happy here, you can leave” https://t.co/YEtC8vMYcW pic.twitter.com/xyNFAaV8cq

That was the first question. He was asked about it again in a follow-up:

And another follow up…

Q: Is President Trump concerned that many people saw his tweets as racist, and that white nationalist groups find a “common cause” with his points?

Trump: “It doesn’t concern me because many people agree with me” https://t.co/fJsx8emrWk pic.twitter.com/ciwUdbkQLk

Trump also called Pelosi’s statement “Make America White Again” a very racist statement:

Lastly, he addressed the ICE raids saying they were very successful:

“The ICE raids were very successful, many, many were taken out on Sunday, you just didn’t know about it,” Trump said, despite reports from cities around the country that very few agents came knocking pic.twitter.com/5bWktu2xz5
