President Donald Trump celebrated House Republicans’ allegiance in a tweet on Tuesday evening, after his party voted nearly unanimously against a resolution that condemned him for making racist remarks to four congresswomen of color.

Trump lauded the party-line vote by Republicans — only four GOPers and one independent voted with Democrats to denounce the President — and he reveled in House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) reprimanding for — as Republicans claim — breaking House rules when she called him racist.

“Quite a day!” he tweeted.

While the majority of Republicans voted against denouncing Trump for his remarks about four congresswomen, the measure still passed the House.

  1. President Trump, you disgust me.

    I’ve got to figure that at least half of those Republicans voting against the resolution had to hold their noses while they voted. I’m sure they weren’t happy to have this guy celebrating their vote. He doesn’t know when to leave well enough alone.

  3. This “Article” amounts to a retweet.

    This is why the media wants another 4 years of Trump, literally retweet and collect add ad revenue.

    If they keep protecting Trump they might just get themselves a War to cover… a sweet, sweet Pulitzer Prize generating War.

  4. Yep, classic strong-man / dominance behavior: grind into their faces the fact that he owns House GOP. This isn’t celebration–it’s intimidation.

  5. Being in detention suits him. He wears it as a badge of honor among his 4th grade pals.
