About 20 minutes before this morning's grotesque Trump rant, Fox & Friends ran a segment about "the Squad" and aired comments Reps. Rashida Tlaib and Ayanna Pressley (both born in the U.S.) made at Netroots Nation.

I remember when it was said that George W. Bush was "intellectually incurious." That's true, of course, but Trump's got him beat.

Telling naturalized citizens who are elected members of Congress working to do what they think is best to improve this country that they should instead go back to their home countries and fix them is a betrayal of what the U.S. is supposed to stand for.

...he bumped the Pence visit to the concentration camps AND Epstein/Acosta from the top of the headlines. He didn't make those stories go away...he just grabbed the #1 spot, which I'm sure was fully intentional.
