"they do it too" is a pretty bad defense. His original tweet was a bad look.

Not sure why this is controversial.

Ungrateful muslims. This is a Christian country who allows people to practice their religions. They are a religious minority who hates Christians and Jews. Why do you defend them?

only if you are still expecting President Trump to suddenly become a "politician" and stop being the man the people elected him to be.

And no, lol. He wasn't elected to be a racist and to "make America white again" that's just a spoiled group of people who still are not adult enough to come the grips with the fact that things didn't turn out the way they wanted so they are throwing a temper tantrum and trying to change the narrative and do any thing they can to smear President Trumps historic victory.

So much outrage against what the President tweets. How come no outrage against a group of elected officials and the MSM for blatantly lying about situations and events?

I think you missed the entire point of the tweets. I don't give Trump much credit but him hitting hard on these women is really masterful.

Trump is driving a wedge right down the middle of the Democrats.

Once the herd is splintered, it will be easy to pick them off one at a time.

It wasn't a "they do it too." Nothing about his original tweets were racist if you bother to read them instead of selecting a phrase here and there. If he just said "They need to go back to their countries because we don't like their kind here", then yeah, racist. He said they should go back and fix their own countries... What exactly is racist about that? I know that the statement isn't entirely accurate since 3 of the 4 congresswomen were born here, but his point was to bait the media into this because he knows his supporters are sick and tired of liberals and the media constantly crying "RACIST!!!" in objection to everything. They took the bait, Trump wins.

I do think he should have just kept letting the Dems fight among each other, but Trumps gonna do whatever he wants.

I stand with trump on pretty much everything. And I will vote for him again. But Yesterday's tweets were stupid. that's on top of lots of stupid tweets from him. I get it, he's trying to play head games with liberals and make them support the loons. But there are other ways than making dumb remarks like go back to your country. Especially when 3 out of the 4 are natural born US citizens. Regardless of the crap they constantly spew, he really had no need to go there. It was dumb, and didn't really accomplish anything except make a lot of people melt. That doesn't solve anything.

So telling the truth about anti-American elected officials is BAD???!!! Really indicative of the status of common sense in America when we start classifying HONEST TWEETS as "bad looks." I agreed with him, those anti-American corrupt assholes should go to those countries and argue the same inane nonsense they do here and see what happens. Bunch of entitled limousine socialists.
