An email today from AOC to her supporters says, "This morning, Donald Trump did something that every person of color has experienced in this country at some point in their lives: he told the squad to go back to their country."
THE NEW YORK TIMES: "Trump suggested that the congresswomen -- none of whom are white -- should 'go back and help fix' the countries they came from....Only one of the women was born outside the United States."
AOC's email continues: "Today, Trump made something very clear: his 'Make America Great Again' slogan has always meant 'Make America White Again.'"
Trump tweeted today about AOC and the squad: “Why don’t they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came. Then come back and show us how it is done.”
The New York Times reports:
President Trump on Sunday weighed in on the friction between a group of four freshman Democratic congresswomen and Speaker Nancy Pelosi: He suggested that the congresswomen -- none of whom are white -- should “go back and help fix” the countries they came from...
Mr. Trump’s attack was meant for members of the so-called squad, a group engaged in an existential and generational war of words with Ms. Pelosi: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, Rashida Tlaib of Michigan and Ayanna S. Pressley of Massachusetts.
The New York Times has also reported on our distribution of this sticker and our solidarity with AOC.
