Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker (R) condemned a recent series of tweets by President Trump telling progressive congresswomen to “go back” to other countries, calling them “shameful” and “racist.”

Though a growing number of Republicans have criticized Trump's statements only a few have used the word "racist."

“The president's tweets were shameful, they were racist and ... they bring a tremendous amount of, sort of, disgrace to public policy and public life and I condemn them all,” Baker said at an event Monday, according to WBUR.

Baker, who enjoys some of the best approval ratings of any governor in the traditionally liberal state, has frequently criticized Trump and says he left his ballot blank in 2016 rather than vote for him.
