Did you see this, John??

Trump is known for his childish Twitter rampages that embarrass the office of the presidency, but this time he’s reached a whole new level. Yesterday, he attacked the squad of progressive Congresswomen Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Rashida Tlaib, Ilhan Omar, and Ayanna Pressley with vile comments suggesting they “go back from which they came” to fix their “broken” countries.

Let’s call this what it is: racism.

First of all, all but one of these members of Congress were born right here in the same country as Donald Trump. Ilhan has called this country home since she was ten years old. Regardless of where these women were born, we know this: they swore an oath to the United States when they entered Congress, and are working tirelessly to call out and fix our broken systems.

AOC, Rashida, Ilhan, and Ayanna weren’t afraid to stand up to Trump and call out his administration for its racist, xenophobic, and dehumanizing immigration policies. Now, they’re facing a mountain of attacks from the far-right. Rush $5 now to support the squad and send a strong message to Trump that we won’t stand for his racist dog whistles.

Unable to answer for all of his corrupt, un-American, racist behavior, Trump attacks the powerful, diverse women of the House loudly calling him out. These members of Congress need the resources to fight back the onslaught of Trump trolls and acolytes in the media, in Congress, and even in their districts back home. We must have their backs so they can never stop holding Trump accountable for his vile attacks that further reveal the core of his hatred for anyone, immigrant or not, who isn’t white.

He’s got one thing right though -- we’ll see him at the ballot box in 2020.

We can’t let Trump get away with his unapologetically racist behavior. Help us fight back by making a donation now to give us the resources it takes to keep the squad in Congress, kick Trump out of office, and elect progressives up and down the ballot.

This behavior is unacceptable and unconscionable. We will always fight back, and we will win.
