Very original, Donald.

President Donald Trump has yet to back down from his racist attacks toward four lawmakers of color—Congresswomen Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), and Ayanna Pressley (D-MA).

The congresswomen—known colloquially as "the squad"—have similar stances on a number of Democratic issues and are notably further left than the majority of their colleagues. With his racist tweets, Trump threw down the gauntlet and sicced his campaign and supporters upon their reputations and their very allegiance to this country.


Now, in a characteristic move, the Trump campaign is invoking the "squad" moniker in its latest campaign video, which features footage from Trump's controversial—and taxpayer funded—Salute to America.

Watch until the end.

After numerous clips of Trump shaking hands with veterans and workers, a clip of the Fourth of July military flyover fades into the words:

"AMERICA: One Squad Under God."

The new slogan immediately began generating eye rolls from Trump's critics.

But many were more concerned that Trump's Independence Day celebration, which racked up millions of dollars in taxpayer money, featured so prominently in the video.

Was this a taxpayer-funded campaign video?

This isn't the first time Trump exploited the once-apolitical celebration for a campaign ad. He had one ready to go on the fifth of July.

One "squad" above oversight, apparently.

Marco Rubio Awkwardly Dodges Question About Kimberly Guilfoyle's Blatant Corruption—As She's Standing Just Feet Away

Secretary of State Marco Rubio was criticized after he shut down a question about former Fox News host and current U.S. Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle following a Wall Street Journal report alleging that she engaged in illegal conduct.

The WSJ reported that Guilfoyle asked Eric Deters, a Trump donor and former congressional candidate, to cover $100,000 in credit card debt before her Senate confirmation hearings. The report said she contacted him through Signal, pressing him to arrange the payment that day and explaining how to send the funds directly to American Express.

Artist Brutally Rips Trump With Naked 'Orange Plague' Sculpture In European Parliament

President Donald Trump has finally received the golden treatment in Europe, although the 8.5-foot-tall naked statue now towering inside the European Parliament probably isn't the tribute he had in mind.

Unveiled in Strasbourg, France, the 23-karat-gold-coated sculpture depicts Trump perched on the shoulders of a smaller, visibly burdened man, clutching an oversized golf club in one hand and the scales of justice in the other.
