介绍： President Trump is doubling down on racist language he used to attack four Democratic congresswomen, comments that have been widely condemned by Democrats and by some Republicans. Trump tweeted this weekend that the four lawmakers, who are all women of color and who are all U.S. citizens, that they should, quote, "go back and help fix the totally broken and crime-infested places from which they came."
Now, today the president pushed on, saying...
(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: And all I'm saying that if they're not happy here, they can leave.
KELLY: NPR's Ayesha Rascoe joins me now from the White House. And, Ayesha, a little bit more detail if you would on what exactly the president had to say today.
AYESHA RASCOE, BYLINE: Well, he defended his tweets. And he even went further in some ways, basically arguing that he believes these women do not love their country. And he continued to say that they should get out of the country, that they should leave. Trump was asked specifically about white nationalists finding common cause with him on these statements. And this is what he said.
(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)
TRUMP: It doesn't concern me because many people agree with me. And all I'm saying — they want to leave, they can leave. Now, it doesn't say leave forever.
RASCOE: Just to be clear, none of these lawmakers who Trump is talking about are saying that they want to leave this country or that they do not love this country.

特朗普总统升级了他对四名民主党国会女议员发表的种族主义言论，总统的言论遭到了民主党人和一些共和党人的广泛谴责。上周末，特朗普发推攻击4名有色人种女议员，这4人均是美国公民，特朗普说她们应该“回到她们来的地方，把那些烂糟的、犯罪滋生的地方先治理好。”
今天，总统继续攻击，他说……
（录音档案）
唐纳德·特朗普总统：我的意思是，如果她们在这里不开心，那她们可以离开。
凯利：现在NPR新闻记者阿伊莎·拉斯科将从白宫和我们连线。阿伊莎，请详细介绍一下总统今天发表的言论。
阿伊莎·拉斯科连线：他为自已在推特上的言论进行了辩护。从某种程度上来讲，他甚至继续进行攻击，基本上来说，他认为这些女性不爱美国。他还说，她们应该离开美国，她们应该离开。有记者明确对特朗普说，白人民族主义者认同他的言论。下面是总统的回答。
（录音档案）
特朗普：那与我无关，因为有很多人同意我的说法。我要说的是，如果她们想离开，那她们可以离开。但这并不是指永远离开。
拉斯科：需要明确说明的是，特朗普攻击的这4名女议员并没有说想离开美国，也没有说不爱美国。
