Relieved @realDonaldTrump has distanced himself from the hideously nativist, xenophobic & racist chants of #SendHerBack directed at @IlhanMN & #TheSquad by the crowd in North Carolina. @POTUS must guard against attacks on our democracy by intolerance. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

#PuertoRicoMarcha is a spontaneous explosion of citizen revulsion over decades of corrupt governance & criminally inept administration by an elite class of self-serving politicians. Corruption indictments will reveal a cancer requiring dramatic intervention by federal authorities — PolitiTweet.org

@CampaignLiveUS @RGA So proud of my pal Jeff Brecker the most creative digital guy in the history of digits. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

@realDonaldTrump now saying he did not approve of the #SendHerBack crowd-chant last night. Thank God for small favors. Still, wish the president had expressed his disapproval of the outrageous actions of his audience in real time. His silence was deafening. — PolitiTweet.org

Watching #WalterCronkite from #Apollo50th reminded what it was like to have a unified (briefly) nation & world cheering on great achievement for human race-landing men on the moon & bringing them safely home. We need another quest that emphasizes that we're in this world together — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

@realDonaldTrump is often underrated & badly treated by political media. But when he's wrong he's wrong-and he is wrong to invoke the language of racism & xenophobia to whip up crowds to shout "send her back" at a duly-elected citizen Congresswoman. It is low brow & disappointing — PolitiTweet.org

#PuertoRicoMarcha 1000's on the march in Old San Juan-furious at decades of cronyism & corruption-Crowds demanding resignation of Gov. Ricardo Rossello' & gang who have steered Puerto Rico into billions in bankruptcy, while lining their own pockets. #RickyRenuncia (Resign Ricky) — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

Dear @realDonaldTrump plz don't continue down this road of intolerance & racial provocation. You're supposed to be the glue that makes #EPluribusUnum possible. Out of many, one. Appeal to the best of us, not the worst. Plz. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

House bill to #ImpeachTrumpNow was ridiculous, lame, low brow, futile & spiteful. It was deservedly blown away. Now let’s get on with the business of the nation. Don’t like @realDonaldTrump? No problem, beat him fair & square next November, if you can. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

“A broken system” yes. And one befouled by systemic corruption. Ex: So easy to blame @realDonaldTrump for failed #HurricaneMaria relief, rather than blame the criminally inept officials who drove #PREPA into bankruptcy. #RickyRenuncia is the beginning not the end of this scandal — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

Aside from racial concord & comity, the real victims of the current race controversy may be Dem congresspeople in Trump/Red swing Districts. You can bet #GOP will seek to attach all Dems to the far left proposals of #TheSquad — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

CNN commentator @VanJones68 wisely called the 2016 election of @realDonaldTrump a #WhiteLash. The current controversy over insulting remarks by @POTUS vs. congresswomen of color will harden America's racial divide. Folk will say it's about Ideology, while thinking it's about Race — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

After generations of racial dog whistles, House Dems specifically denounced @realdonaldtrump's “racist comments that have legitimized increased fear and hatred of new Americans and people of color.” After the partisan bickering & anger tho, it turned into just another day in DC. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

Strategy emerging: @realDonaldTrump will not be running vs @JoeBiden @ewarren or @SenKamalaHarris, etc. His wrath will fall on #4CongresswomenOfTheResistance He'll make their radical policies the de facto Democrat platform, incl benefits for undocumented migrants, reparations etc — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

Instead of carrying the historic weight of the 1st congressional condemnation of a sitting president in a century, the House merely did what it usually does, it split along party lines-spoke past each other-and refused to do anything that gave the other side a political advantage — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

@realDonaldTrump survived his condemnation of & call for exile for 4 radical left congresswomen of color, @AOC, @RashidaTlaib @AyannaPressley & @IlhanMN. Instead of apologizing for his-maybe inadvertent-but plain racial slur-he managed to make debate about ideology & socialism. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

50 years ago, as I transitioned from NYC local reporting to national scene, my critics sometimes invoked the "Go back where you came from" trope. After explaining that Puerto Ricans are American citizens & that in any event I was born in Manhattan, I would make them take it back — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

By attacking #TheSquad on the basis of race and/or national origin, @realDonaldTrump inadvertently healed the schism caused in Dem party by #DemocraticSocialism. He can put the heat back on them by apologizing for the controversy & publicly reminding us that we're all Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

Day after @realDonaldTrump's personally destructive embrace of dark side of American politics, it's clear only @POTUS can end this narrative. It's hard for proud folk to admit they were wrong. But there's no spinning that doesn't further divide Americans by race & national origin — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

@POTUS' words have embarrassed his true friends & given aid & comfort to his political enemies. Spinning won't help. His statement was intolerant & beneath the dignity of the presidency. Last week the Democrats were a house divided. He has single-handedly glued them back together — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

@realDonaldTrump is often attacked unfairly by partisan hacks. Not this time. His call for the congresswomen of color to go back where they came from is racist & xenophobic. He should apologize. If he didn’t mean to say it, he should apologize for being extraordinarily clumsy. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

#JeffreyEpstein's a wretched piece of human excrement. Still, bail exists because pending trial, all criminal defendants are innocent until proven guilty. Unless he's flight risk or threat to victims or committing new crimes he has right to bail-It's not supposed to be punishment — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

@realDonaldTrump can use his "Made in America" event planned for 11:45am today to correct record about bona fides birth citizenship of 3 squad members & naturalized citizenship of the 4th, and to remind the world that he is @POTUS of all Americans #EPluribusUnum out of many, one. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

From a patriotic & moral viewpoint, @realDonaldTrump's "Go back where they came from," BS is deeply disappointing. I know he's better & smarter than that. As a matter of politics, it inadvertently rescues @SpeakerPelosi from her self-destructive feud with her nemesis "the squad." — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

After his woeful absentee performance during the current blackout, I withdraw my nomination of @NYCMayor for POTUS. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

Sad to watch my friend @realDonaldTrump take low road regarding @AOC of the Bronx, @RashidaTlaib of Detroit @AyannaPressley of Boston & @Ilhan of Somalia & Minneapolis. Let’s stick to issues & steer clear of language that’s xenophobic even racist. @POTUS you’re better than that. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

Pretty beach Saturday morning. The kind when-for a few hours-you can suspend anxiety, anger, division & woe, embrace optimism & the joy of being alive, & view the world thru rose colored glasses. Have a great summer day brothers and sisters. https://t.co/JCPkcjMrEA — PolitiTweet.org

#Raids contemplated by #ICE = a terrible idea. "Collateral" arrests and deportations of otherwise innocent undocumented immigrants caught in crush will tear families apart and sow terror among law-abiding, family-oriented folks who just want a better living for their children. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

As #MuellerTime looms-testimony next Wednesday before 2 House panels-expect GOP members to use #ChristopherSteele' recent testimony to ask solemn special counsel whether he relied on salacious, unverified, unverifiable bullshit about golden showers to prolong our national agony. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

When @realDonaldTrump visited w Queen last month, Ex-spy #ChristopherSteele grilled in London for 16 hours by investigators for #IGMichaelHorowitz-Which is fine-except-what took so long? Without Steele' sexual fairytale #RussiaCollusionIllusion would have fizzled out long ago. — PolitiTweet.org
