Trump supporters’ newest rallying cry — ‘Send her back!’— reverberates across a nation fraught with racial tension
After days of inflaming the nation’s racial tensions, President Trump stood before a mostly white crowd of supporters Wednesday and observed what he had wrought.
“Send her back! Send her back!” the crowd chanted as Trump looked on silently for 13 seconds, basking in the response to his attacks on a Somali-born Muslim congresswoman whom he had accused of supporting terrorists and hating America.
The new rallying cry of Trump’s supporters unleashed emotional responses from people across the country, with some outraged by and others supportive of the president’s latest polarizing act.
“I think he’s tearing the world apart with what he says and how he says it,” Lu Norman, 88, said while visiting the library in the rural west Texas town of Stanton. “I don’t think he’s presidential.”
Also at the library Wednesday, Lori Valles said the president was being “petty” and turning “people against each other.”
Trump “needs to be impeached,” the 42-year-old certified nurse’s aide said.

This is a very clear example of Trump's lies. He claims he tried to stop the crowd from chanting this racist slogan used in the 50's and 60's against blacks in the South. The video PROVES otherwise.
