‘The Squad’ Responds: Congresswomen Put President Trump on Blast

By: - July 15, 2019

Love them or hate them, no one will doubt the tenacity of “The Squad.” The four Democratic congresswomen who make up the squad have emerged as some of the most vocal and high-profile Democrats in Congress. And in recent days, they have found themselves locked in a prominent, heated battle with President Donald Trump.

While the Squad has made several tweets and other statements in recent days, pushing back against President Trump’s remarks, they upped the ante today by holding a joint press conference. Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib claimed that Trump’s comments were “a continuation of his racist and xenophobic playbook.” Tlaib also blasted Trump over conditions at migrant centers on the southern border. Trump responded via Twitter, claiming that poor conditions are the result of the previous administration.

Democratic Rep. Ayanna Pressley went after Trump’s personal character, arguing “He [Trump] does not embody the grace, the empathy, the compassion, the integrity that that office requires and that the American people deserve.” Pressley also pressed home the point that “we will not be silenced.”

Responding to Trump’s suggestion that they leave the country, Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) stated “we don’t leave the things we love. We love all people in this country.” While Trump urged the Squad to go back to their home countries, AOC, Pressley, and Tlaib are all native-born.

Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar was born in Somalia but has since become a naturalized citizen, like millions of other Americans. Regarding Trump’s comments, Omar claimed “this is the agenda of white nationalists, whether it is happening in chat rooms or happening on national TV. And now it’s reached the White House garden.”

Of course, President Trump has fired back his own response on Twitter:

    • The hypocrisy of Earth Day
      We are approaching Earth Day, the international celebration in which progressive politicians and celebrities exempt themselves from the green legislation they helped create, a celebration of the astounding ability of people to ignore laws of economics, physics and common sense in an effort to pretend their carbon footprint is impossibly dainty.

      By Ed Thompson Smartism is the absurd idea that smart is bad.

      Is the conflict between Israel and Iran about to explode? Are we on the edge of World War III, if not Armageddon? The answer to all these questions is the same: not likely.

    • Iran's attack on Israel: A sign of the times
      Iran's attack on Israel on April 13, 2024, was without precedent. And it has prophetic significance, because the increasing isolation of Israel is one of the signs of the times that Jesus told us to be looking for. In the 21st chapter of Luke's gospel, Jesus gave the disciples a bird's-eye view of end-times events.… […]
