A USA TODAY/Ipsos poll found support for the president’s remarks was far lower thanhis son’s estimate.

“We all know that AOC and this crowd are a bunch of communists,” Sen. Lindsey Graham said. But he advised Trump to “aim higher” in his attacks.

They’re four freshman Democratic congresswomen from different backgrounds with a common goal of upsetting the status quo.

Ilhan Omar said Trump was “stoking white nationalism” because “people like us are serving in Congress and fighting against your hate-filled agenda.”

Nancy Pelosi said Trump’s comments reaffirm that “his plan to ‘Make America Great Again’ has always been about making America white again.”

Acosta has defended the plea deal, arguing in April that without it, Epstein “was going to get off” and would have escaped conviction entirely.

Pelosi said Acosta “must step down” because “he engaged in an unconscionable agreement” with Epstein, and that Trump knew that when he appointed him.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez also took issue with Nancy Pelosi’s dismissal of Twitter, saying the speaker would “rather campaign like it’s 2008.”

When asked about the leaked remarks, President Donald Trump told reporters that Ambassador Kim Darroch “has not served the U.K. well.”
