The Charlotte City Council voted Monday to condemn President Donald Trump’s “racist and xenophobic comments” about the squad, a notable move from the leadership of the city that will play host to the 2020 Republican convention.
The vote was split along party lines, according to the Washington Post.
A Charlotte Observer reporter snapped a picture of the resolution:

The document “acknowledges that many of the City’s residents are immigrants and/or people of color” and “condemns all hate speech, bigotry, racism, and discrimination, wherever it may occur, especially from the highest levels of government.”

Awkward.
How ’BOUT That Squad? They be takin’ names and makin’ hurt on Trump.

Changing cities in 3.2.1.
We have never had a President so intent on dividing America. Until Trump they have all had the stated desire to unite all of us. Trump is simply unbelievable.
