That phrase is not in the transcript. Sorry.

That phrase is part of Donald Trump’s Twitter feed

That phrase is part of an official statement issued by the President of the United States.

That phrase will be part of the U.S. Presidential record for as long as there is a record.

That phrase will be read by your grand children and great grandchildren (if you have any) in their history class.

That phrase will come up in at least one of the Presidential debates and Trump will have to explain it. (If Trump has the courage to show up to any debate)

And most important
That phrase is racist.

Asked if she thinks Pelosi has racial animus or is racist, Ocasio-Cortez said unequivocally, "No, no, absolutely not, absolutely not."

After accusing Pelosi of racism using all the right words except for the crucial one.
This might be the best example of apophysis (sort of) of the year.

Looking back over that long and ugly history, I think of my grandparents' generation and consider that a lot of people have personal, intimate connections to that history. My grandparents would be considered racist by today's standards, but so would most white people of their generation since that's what they were raised in and that's all they really knew growing up. They weren't malicious or hateful to any degree; they considered themselves honest, hard-working, and decent. But they did say a lot of ignorant and prejudiced things.

And that may be how a lot of people see it these days. When someone says something that's rather dumb, ignorant, and racist, it might make people think of their "crazy uncle" or grandparent at family gatherings who says dumb things like that. They may not think of the long and ugly history, but they might think of some addle-headed family member who's off his meds.

However, I'll concede that when "crazy uncle" becomes President of the United States, then we might have ourselves a situation here.

Most nazis were not malicious or hateful. They considered themselves honest, hard-working and decent people. They simply believed that they were a superior race, and so deserved to wield superior power of those inferior races. And they were willing to support Hitler because of this belief.

Most of the bad things that happen in the world happen because good people support it.

Racist is as racist does. Telling someone they are not American, and to go back to where they came from (3 are born in the USA, one is a naturalized citizen) because of their skin color is racist. It's not meaningless, it's blatant.

Monday night Steven Colbert was discussing this and suggest Trump can go to Hell. The comment got a standing ovation.

Here is the transcript.
President Trump Doubled Down on 'Why Don't They Go Back' Remarks: Read the Transcript

He only directly mentions Ohmar and Somalia.

Later on in the conversation he mentions the 4 which is a reference to the squad. But that was in reference to them being socialist/communist.

Why are you posting a link to an after-the-fact press conference? Here is the tweet, which you could have easily found...


Donald J. Trump

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......

Do you understand that the word "Congresswomen" is plural?

If you are going to go into sheeple defense mode, at least try to get your facts straight.

Trump Defends White-Nationalist Protesters: 'Some Very Fine People on Both Sides'

ROSIE GRAY AUG 15, 2017
“What about the alt-left that came charging at, as you say, at the alt-right?” Trump said. “Do they have any semblance of guilt?”

“I’ve condemned neo-Nazis. I’ve condemned many different groups. But not all of those people were neo-Nazis, believe me,” he said.

“You had many people in that group other than neo-Nazis and white nationalists,” Trump said. “The press has treated them absolutely unfairly.”

“You also had some very fine people on both sides,” he said.​
