Donald Trump seemingly tells AOC to go back to where she comes from

Donald Trump AOC

Very controversial remarks.

Donald Trump has said that some Democrat congresswomen from countries “whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe” should “go back and help fix the totally broken and crime-infested places from which they came”, in a series of tweets.

Nobody was specifically mentioned in the tweets, but many are convinced that he is referencing both Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ilhan Omar, whom he has recently been disputing with, similarly saying that “doesn’t even know where” they came from.

Ocasio-Cortez was born in The Bronx in New York, while Omar was born in Somalia.

The tweets, which have not yet been deleted at the time of writing, read: “So interesting to see ‘Progressive’ Democrat Congresswomen, who originally came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe, the worst, most corrupt and inept anywhere in the world (if they even have a functioning government at all), now loudly and viciously telling the people of the United States, the greatest and powerful Nation on earth, how our government is to be run.

“Why don’t they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came?”

He followed up by saying: “These places need your help badly, you can’t leave fast enough.”

AOC is yet to respond to the tweets, despite many believing that they are referencing her.
