Trump Singles Out 4 Congresswomen Of Color, 2 Jewish Lawmakers As 'Democrat Savages'

The president has previously used the term “savages” to refer to terrorists and violent criminals.

By Mary Papenfuss

President Donald Trump attacked “Democrat savages” in a vicious new tweet Saturday following the launch of a formal impeachment inquiry — and specifically referred to four congresswomen of color and Jewish lawmakers Rep. Jerry Nadler (N.Y.) and Rep. Adam Schiff (Calif.).

He singled out the women even though as of Saturday they were among at least 223 House Democrats who now support an impeachment inquiry. Nader is head of the House Judiciary Committee, and Schiff leads the Intelligence Committee, both key groups in the impeachment inquiry against Trump.

Trump has previously used the term “savages” to refer to terrorists and criminals: members of ISIS and the violent gang MS-13.

One of the most scathing responses came from Democratic presidential candidate and former Texas congressman Beto O’Rourke, who tweeted that Trump used the term “savages” because he “wants you to think of them as less than human.”

4. In order to maintain his self image

as a superior, entitled older white male with the bigly words and the smartly brain, he needs to kick out at anyone not of his type.

If you are female, expect abuse from him.
If you are non-white, expect abuse from him.
If you are a democrat, expect abuse from him.
If you are young, expect abuse from him.

in other words, it's Trump_business as usual.

But honestly, name calling? From the President of the US? Most people learn at an early age you don't lift yourself up by knocking others down, you just show people what a cretin you are.

But, I guess . . . if he is going to act like a spoilt brat, he should be ignored like one.

5. He is such a nasty piece of shit.

6. Good for Beto!

Saying what needs to be said.

It’s really difficult to try to imagine, or understand, the kind of mentality that actually likes trump’s insults.

SO often I see trump supporters interviewed on TV and as I listen to their lame-ass rationales for supporting him, I always want to ask: “so what does that say about YOU?”

7. His appeals to the base are getting scary

8. Yeah... why didn't they impeach Obama?

It must be because republicans are just a bunch of nice people. They wouldn't even lock up Hillary for all those crimes she committed.

9. Trump is trying to distract everyone

It’s not good, but I’m not biting
