According to @GOPLeader, historians are going to remember this day for the appalling lack of decorum displayed by the Speaker when she stated that the president's racist statements were racist.
.@RepSwalwell observes that it is racist to say things like "Mexcians are rapists," and GOP tries to strike it for being out of order.
Not only does the GOP want to ban calling the president racist, they want to ban calling anything racist if the president has ever done it.
Not only does the GOP want to ban calling the president racist, they want to ban calling anything racist if the president has ever done it.
GOP withdraws the objection, and Swalwell begins his litany again.
Rep. Collins, in closing, bemoans the Democrats' refusal to seek common ground, and to instead pursue things that are irrelevant, like the fact the president is making racist attacks on representatives of color.
The common theme from GOP is that, by refusing to follow a rule the GOP made two years ago that prohibits describing anything President Trump says as racist, the Democrats are ushering in the collapse of rule of law.
