"So intriguing to see 'Dynamic' Democrat Congresswomen, who initially originated from nations whose administrations are a finished and absolute calamity, the most noticeably awful, most degenerate and bumbling anyplace on the planet (in the event that they even have a working government by any stretch of the imagination), presently noisily and violently telling the general population of the United States, the best and most dominant nation on earth, how our legislature is to be run," said Trump on Twitter.
"For what reason don't they return and help fix the completely broken and wrongdoing pervaded places from which they came."
The Republican president's tweets drew sharp reprimands from the Democrats. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Trump needs to "make America white once more."

"Her view is that the language which was utilized to allude to the ladies was unsatisfactory," May's representative told correspondents.
Ocasio-Cortez quickly reviled his comments. "Mr. President, the nation I 'originate from,' and the Nation we as a whole vow to, is the United States," she said in a Twitter post on Sunday.
Ocasio-Cortez, who is of Puerto Rican drop, was conceived in the Bronx, New York, and brought up in rural Westchester County.
Pressley, the primary dark lady, chose for the House from Massachusetts, was born in Cincinnati. Tlaib was born in Detroit.
Omar, the primary Somali local, chosen to Congress and one of its first Muslim ladies, was conceived in Somalia yet spent quite a bit of her youth in a Kenyan displaced person camp as conventional war destroyed her nation of origin.
She moved to the US at 12, training herself English by watching American TV and inevitably settling with her family in Minneapolis.
Tlaib reacted to Trump's assault in a video distributed on Twitter.
"This is our Nation. No measure of detest filled tormenting from the White House is going to change that. We're going to battle back together, and we will end up more grounded for it. If it's not much trouble, realize that I won't down, no sort of assault to quiet me is getting down to business," Tlaib said.
The assaults may have been intended to encourage the partitions inside the Democrat gathering, stressed over internal discussions on liberal strategies and on whether to continue with prosecution procedures against Trump.
Instead, Democrats, as one voice, criticized the remarks.
"Sadly there is an American convention of advising individuals to return where they originated from," Bill de Blasio said on CNN.
"It's a terrible convention that we have to get rid of our country since we are a country of foreigners, that is our identity by our temperament for a long time. In any case, you don't hope to hear it from the president."
It was a long way from the first occasion when that Trump has been blamed for holding racist actions.
His political profession was propelled on the backs of erroneously asserting that his antecedent, Barack Obama, was not conceived in the US. In his crusade the opening shot in June 2015, he esteemed numerous Mexican settlers "attackers."
What's more, a year ago, during a White House meeting on migration, he asked why the US was conceding such a significant number of foreigners from "s***hole nations, for example, Haiti, El Salvador, and a few African countries.
Arsalan Iftikhar, human rights legal advisor and senior individual at Georgetown University, told Al Jazeera: "This is the president who required the aggregate and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the US, once alluded to Mexicans as attackers, began the Obama birth contention.
"When you see this kind of racism, xenophobia, misogyny, Islamophobia originating from the president, it's extremely significant for minorities networks in the US to go about as intersectional partners to each other to guarantee he is a one-term president."
Al Sharpton said Donald Trump is a supremacist, reminded the president that he is a second era American and that his in-laws are workers.
Sharpton said on MSNBC show Politics Nation:
The president is a racist. That is it. No doubt as far as I can tell. It's been shown over and over, and after this current morning's Twitter screed, swimming into the continuous strategic fight between House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and four young women of Congress with nothing to include except for racists. There ought to be no uncertainty who president Donald Trump is addressing and for. Toward the beginning of today, our leader asked his base the accompanying. "Dynamic Democratic Congresswomen, who initially originated from nations whose legislatures are a finished and all-out calamity, for what reason don't they return and help fix the completely broken and wrongdoing pervaded places from which they came? At that point, return and demonstrate to us how it is finished."
He included, “Well, I am the place I originate from. I originate from Brooklyn. What's more, incidentally, congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was conceived in New York City. Tlaib was designed in Detroit. What's more, Pressley conceived in Cincinnati. So returned where they originate from, those are the urban areas and states they originate from, and, Mr. President, you would prefer not to discuss if their grandparents or extraordinary grandparents originated from somewhere else because you are a second-age individual that resulted in these present circumstances nation from elsewhere. Your in-laws are from abroad. Along these lines, unmistakably, you're not discussing individuals that have had progenitors and foremothers that were conceived elsewhere. You're talking about a race, and you're talking about it expressly, outrightly, and most terribly as the leader of the United States."
