Member of Senate GOP leadership (Ernst) says Trump tweets are racist

BY ALEXANDER BOLTON

Senate Republican Conference Vice Chairwoman Joni Ernst (R-Iowa) said Monday that she thinks President Trump's tweets suggesting that minority Democratic lawmakers "go back" to the countries they came from was racist.

Ernst was pressed by reporters about Trump's tweets from the weekend when she walked into a weekly leadership meeting in Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's (R-Ky.) office.

Asked if she thought Trump's comments were specifically racist, Ernst acknowledged, "Yeah, I do."

She reiterated that view when asked on another occasion by a CNN reporter if she found Trump's comments racist.
