Trump signals he'll talk about minority congresswomen at Wednesday rally


BY RACHEL FRAZIN - 07/17/19 09:31 AM EDT

President Trump is signaling he intends to speak at his rally Wednesday night about the four minority congresswomen he told earlier this week to go back to their home countries, stating in a tweet that he would discuss people "who love, and hate, our Country."

The House voted on Tuesday night along party lines to condemn Trump's Sunday tweet calling for the four congresswomen, all U.S. citizens, to go back to their home countries. The resolution condemned Trump's "racist" comments; just one of the four Democrats was not born in the United States.

Trump sees the attacks on Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (N.Y.), Ilhan Omar (Minn.), Ayanna Presley (Mass.) and Rashida Tlaib (Mich.) as energizing his base, however, and has signaled he will keep up the attacks.

The four women represent a liberal wing of the Democratic Party, and Trump and his allies have also targeted them as communists and anti-American.

I fear for their safety. t-rump is going to pitch more hatred and violence against POC, any opposition. Love thy country is not real when it comes to him.

Love thy neighbor is a farce as well. He hates anyone or anything that stands in his way.
