Trump calls on congresswomen to return home

US President Donald Trump Sunday told four Democrat Congresswomen to ‘go back’ to where they came from. If you are unhappy in the US, you could leave, Trump tweeted, accusing them of being fans of United States enemies. Trump’s vile remarks were strongly criticized by Democrat officials who described him as racist and xenophobe. According to Al Akhbar newspaper, Trump was apparently alluding to young, progressive and outspoken congresswomen, namely, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Minnesota Congresswoman Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib of Michigan. In response to Trumps’ attack, the congresswomen in question said the US President is promoting ‘white nationalism’, pledging not to keep silent. And while Democrat, Ben Ray, said the four congresswomen have been elected by American voters, British prime minister, Teresa May, described Trump’s remarks as categorically unacceptable.
