A little more than a week after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi insinuated that "Make America Great Again" means "Make America White Again," CNN host Chris Cuomo argued that "Make America Great Again" actually means "Make America Hate Again." Cuomo devoted his closing argument Wednesday night to highlighting how "Trump's racist message becomes 2020 rally cry," as the chyron at the bottom of the screen read. He began by trashing President Trump's tweets criticizing the four Democratic Congresswoman known as "the squad." According to Cuomo, "he knew only one of the lawmakers was a naturalized citizen from somewhere else but he lumped them together on purpose because he is a demagogue and he is selling noisy brown women making trouble and trying to change what this place is about." Cuomo proceeded to weigh in on the Trump rally in North Carolina, where some in the crowd chanted "send her back" when the President brought up Congresswoman Ilhan Omar; complaining that "the President who says he didn't mean that didn't correct them."
