Donald Trump To Congresswomen: ‘Go Back’ Where You Came From

President Donald Trump said Sunday that four minority, liberal congresswomen who have been critical of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi should "go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came," prompting other Democrats - including Pelosi - to leap to their defense.

Pelosi, D-Calif., denounced Trump's tweets as "xenophobic comments meant to divide our nation," while the four congresswomen promised to continue fighting Trump's agenda and accused him of trying to appeal to white nationalists.

Trump's remark swiftly united a House Democratic caucus that had been torn apart in recent days by infighting between Pelosi and the four freshman women of color - Democratic Reps. Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts, Rashida Tlaib of Michigan, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York and Ilhan Omar of Minnesota. It also comes after Trump announced that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers were preparing to round up migrant families that have received deportation orders across the country.
