The idea is that as non whites they don’t really belong, so if they get uppity a legitimate retort is they should just go back to where they came from.

This is a common racist come back, they aren’t mistaken that the person they are saying it about is actually from here. They know literally where they are from.

Yeah I never heard as a response to a white person who was being critical, go figure.

Xenophobia is the fear of the different and the hesitance of accepting the unknown, while racist is a downright rejection of someone that is different from you in terms of race, color, ethnicity, etc.

Why did trump isolate the congresswomen? In his comments he claimed that his governing was better than the others. These comments show that he believes that his governing is superior. This racism. Xenophobia would require not understanding others. BecUse trump is saying he is better because of their beliefs i don’t think it can be xenophobia.

Probably because they are the highest profile loudest critics of him? Had you not know whom he was speaking about would you hold the same position? I doubt it.

There are probably better comments of his that are more racially based racist than this one.

Not to say he's not xenophobic. They usually go hand in hand.

Flip it around and you're spot on about this comment. It's xenophobic which usually goes hand in hand with racist.

Trump said progressive democratic women.

If trump was not referring to these 4 please let me know who he was talking about.

Are you saying trump didn’t know who he was talking about when telling congresswomen to go back to their country?(America)

Even if he didn’t his comments are racists. Because he tells minorities to go back to their country (they are worse) because they can’t govern (he his better).

It can’t be xenophobia because it is the thought that you are better based on race (go back to your country) that makes it racist.

If you say “I don’t like Muslims” that can be xenophobia. If you say “Christians are better than Muslims.” That is racism because of the qualification of superiority.

Inherently when you say you are better than minorities I don’t think it can be xenophobia because of the superiority clause.

Technically, I could say windywave has gay sex with Brett Farve....you might be a racist. There is nothing wrong with that at all. Going to concede I pretty much agree with you though.

Not to you, but thank god we only have an extreme xenophobic idiot running the country! I was worried for a minute!

Your contention is Trump believes these folks are not from the US?

Just like he is not a racist because he believed Obama was not from the US, just a coincidence that all these people are not white.

Seriously? Do us all a favor and look up the definition of racism before embarassing yourself anymore.

Occam's razor says yes.

It would carry more weight if you capitalized God appropriately. You left out uninformed and/ignorant.

I am pretty sure the guy defending a racist making racists comments is the embarrassment here.

You are defending the racists comments by saying they are just xenophobic.

And female...let’s not prioritize Xenophobia over Sexism. Trump is scoring a solid 10 for both. Well done I’d say.

While you're looking up racist look up defending too.

Valid point

So how many US citizens of caucasian heritage has he told to go back to their own country?

And now the Fake News will label him a racist when it was really his ignorance, xenophobia and sexism that just by chance led him to a common racist retort.

No wonder he feels so unfairly maligned.

You are ignoring what ThisIsIt said. While if you split the exceptionally fine hair the statement is very technically xenophobic and not racist, the sentiment is one that is almost exclusively uttered by racists, who might also be xenophobic but are too stupid to know the difference.

Ignore the Godwin's Law of this. If I say Seig Heil, I may just be hailing victory. But since this phrase is almost universally said by Nazis, you'd be very correct in almost all circumstances thinking I am a Nazi.

So you are saying this confirms that he doesn't think Puerto Rico is part of the US?

trump's propaganda arm responded to these tweets by saying that trump was obviously feeling comedic today. Yes, they think this tweet was funny.

Also, that these democratic women need to watch what they say because this is real life and they should take social media seriously, after they just laughed at trump's racism. Fox news should not be taken seriously.

Don't be silly. Trump is pro immigration ...

as long as they are from countries like Norway.

Another thing Windy is ignoring. According to Donald Drumpf, which does not sound like Cherokee to me, and other racists, white people are 'from' here no matter how many generations they have been here. But non-white people have to be 'from' somewhere else, no matter how many generations their family has been here.

These are the people who when a non-white person says they are from California says, "No, where are you FROM?"

Basically what trump does
