President Donald Trump said the Democratic Party is endorsing socialism after its leaders in Congress came to the defense of four representatives whom Trump called “radical left congresswomen.” Trump blasted the four and suggested they should apologize for “horrible and disgusting actions.”

In a series of July 15 tweets, Trump apparently referred to first-term Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.), and Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.)—all progressives at the far-left of the party spectrum.
