“I thought her comments were disgraceful,” Trump said in the Rose Garden, adding he thought the remarked “dishonored” the country and Rep. Rashida Tlaib ’s family.
The newly sworn-in Michigan Democrat, one of the first two Muslim American women elected to Congress, set off a media frenzy after she was recorded at a MoveOn rally near Capitol Hill on Thursday night.
“When your son looks at you and says, ‘Momma, look you won. Bullies don’t win.’ And I said, ‘Baby, they don’t.’ Because we’re going to go in there and impeach the motherf—er,” Tlaib said as the crowd erupted into cheering.
The comments came hours after she was sworn into Congress and follow up on calls for impeachment she made during her campaign.
