I don’t believe the four Congresswomen are capable of loving our Country. They should apologize to America (and Israel) for the horrible (hateful) things they have said. They are destroying the Democrat Party, but are weak & insecure people who can never destroy our great Nation!

Statements from “The Squad”
Since the inception of Reps. Pressley, Tlaib, Omar, and Ocasio-Cortez’s time in office, they have not hesitated to go after the president in various fashions.
Each of the congresswomen have referred to President Trump as racist and called for his impeachment. On Saturday, Omar declared via Twitter that the president’s immigration endgame is to see black and brown people deported from America.
You all should end this charade and accept that this racist president wants every black/brown person deported and Muslims banned 🤦🏽♀️
His immigration policies say this much! https://t.co/B6czPntRn4

On Sunday, Rep. Ocasio-Cortez moreover replied to the president’s assertion that she and the other 75% of “The Squad” lack the ability to love America:
We fight to guarantee:
– healthcare
– public college & student loan forgiveness
– enviro protections
– living wages
– basic human rightsWe don’t take a dime of corporate money, either.
You:
– Jack up drug prices
– Appoint Betsy DeVos to scam student loans
– Hurt immigrant kids https://t.co/bUsXt1h8uT— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) July 21, 2019
“The Squad” and Accusations of Socialism
In the president’s tweet from this morning, he stated that the four congresswomen are pulling the Democrat Party to the radical far left. This is a concern which many other conservatives have articulated.
Policies such as Medicare-for-All, a Green New Deal, and abolishing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) are largely viewed as socialist. Furthermore, Democrat candidate Bernie Sanders has admitted that the success of Medicare-for-All will mandate raising taxes on the middle class. This is something which right-wingers view as problematic and in opposition to helping Americans.
