We know Donald Trump was playing to his base…
He’s right…
Most American’s do NOT like his words and action in this case…
As he has since the campaign..
He is committed to only HIS little world….
He IS NOT the President of the entire nation….
A clear majority of Americans say President Trump’s tweets targeting four minority congresswomen were “un-American,” according to a new USA TODAY/Ipsos Poll. But most Republicans say they agreed with his comments, an illustration of the nation’s sharp partisan divide on issues of patriotism and race.
More than two-thirds of those aware of the controversy, 68%, called Trump’s tweets offensive. Among Republicans alone, however, 57% said they agreed with tweets that told the congresswomen to go back to their “original” countries, and a third “strongly” agreed with them. All four lawmakers are American citizens; three were born in the United States….
GOP Rep. Mike Kelly of PA says he is a person of color because he’s white Anglo Saxon and says he’s never been offended by things people say so what’s the big deal.
I wonder if the Republican platform in 2020 will have a plank asking why we don’t have a white history month?
