"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

Omar I'm totally down with just removing from congress. I really dislike her. It would be illegal, unconstitutional, immoral, a horrible precedent, but I just don't like her.

No I would not seriously support that, I'm just expressing my hatred of the woman who was elected to say that America sucks.

The problem with Omar isnt her background but her worldview. Whats even worse that the democrats and a lot of the liberal-progressive media keeps pandering to her and showcasing her as example of ouch-so-progressive development. While she actually isnt.

The point of running for office is to represent the views of the people you are elected by, yes. But those people and the politician elected should not hate the nation itself, but be supporting policies that they think will make the nation better. Not slamming it for existing.

My point is a bit more practical. I hate Donald Trump but him being President clearly shows that all the things he said on the campaign trail is something that resonated with people around the country

But she does have those policies. She’s constantly talking about education, civil rights and foreign policies and how she thinks our acts in those ares are what makes the country bad

I'm fine with that. I'm not fine with her saying that America at its core is bad. And some of her foreign policy is just... well anti-Semitic.

Donald Trump: Stupid AND racist.

Trump probably didn't write that Tweet himself, and it's actually not stupid. It's malicious. The tweet is pouring gasoline on the fire raging in the Democratic party, and it's adding to the divide between the Pelosi wing and the popular "squad", which they're apparently known as. Adding a touch of "Democrats want to destroy America" to the public discourse is just icing on the cake.

Everybody knows he is a racist, and that the Republicans don't care about that. The question is if Pelosi will play into his hands or not, so this is now about the response from the Democratic side.

When @realDonaldTrump tells four American Congresswomen to go back to their countries, he reaffirms his plan to “Make America Great Again” has always been about making America white again.

Our diversity is our strength and our unity is our power.

I reject @realDonaldTrump’s xenophobic comments meant to divide our nation. Rather than attack Members of Congress, he should work with us for humane immigration policy that reflects American values. Stop the raids - #FamiliesBelongTogether!

Trump's being a racist, and you still want to work with him on immigration? Em. How about no?
