Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez argued the president was attacking the four congresswomen because he can't defend his own policies.
"Weak minds and leaders challenge loyalty to our country in order to avoid challenging and debating the policy," she said at the press conference.
"He can’t look a child in the face and he can’t look at all Americans and justify why this country is throwing them in cages," she said.
"So instead he tells us that I should go back to the great borough of the Bronx and make it better. And that’s what I’m here to do."
She also told a story about her dad bringing her to the Capitol reflecting pool as a child and telling her the nation's capital belongs to everyone. "I want to tell children across this country is that no matter what the president says, this country belongs to you," Ocasio-Cortez said. "And it belongs to everyone and today that notion, that very notion was challenged."

"Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar accused President Trump of "launching a blatantly racist attack on four duly elected members" of the US House of Representatives, pointing out that they are all women of color
."This is the agenda of white nationalists. Whether it is happening in chat rooms, or it is happening on national TV, and now it's reached the White House garden," Omar said.
She concluded her remarks by calling for Trump's impeachment.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez today defiantly responded to President Donald Trump's continued attacks on her and other minority Democratic congresswomen, calling him out for the various sexual assault allegations made against him and his boasts on the infamous 2005 "Access Hollywood" video.
She added..."Hey Mr. President, remember when you bragged about sexually assaulting women, talking about feeling their breasts and genitals, because 'when you're a star they let you do it?'
And then you imposed DOE policies to make it harder for sexual assault survivors to report assault?"
Ocasio-Cortez wrote today, referring to the tape that surfaced during the 2016 campaign in which Trump is heard saying he was able to grab women "by the p****" because he was famous

According to "The Squad" the pervert should not be in the Oval Office.
Democrats who care about the future of the country must focus on holding him accountable -- not because investigations or impeachment will win or lose an election but because it is the right and necessary thing to do.
So far, The Squad has proven they are willing to do just that.
