Us house votes to condemn donald trump for racist comments

You're referring to the recent historic vote in the US House of Representatives!

On February 13, 2021, the US House of Representatives voted to condemn former President Donald Trump's comments about four Democratic lawmakers, known as the "Squad," which many considered to be racist and xenophobic.

The resolution, which was passed with a vote of 232-190, condemned Trump's remarks as "racist" and "xenophobic" and called on him to apologize for his comments. The resolution also condemned the "hateful and divisive rhetoric" used by Trump and his allies.

The controversy began when Trump tweeted about four freshman Democratic lawmakers - Representatives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) - saying they should "go back" to their countries of origin. The tweet was widely criticized as racist and xenophobic, and many lawmakers from both parties condemned Trump's comments.

The House resolution was introduced by Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) and was supported by many Democrats, as well as some Republicans. The resolution was opposed by most Republicans, who argued that it was a political attack on Trump and that the comments were taken out of context.

The vote was seen as a significant rebuke of Trump's behavior and a statement against racism and xenophobia. It was also seen as a sign of the growing divisions in the country and the increasing polarization of politics.

It's worth noting that the resolution was not a formal impeachment resolution, but rather a symbolic condemnation of Trump's comments.
