Trump’s tweets continue to divide

HELENVILLE, Wis. (AP) — Bill Brasch greeted President Donald Trump’s latest tweet controversy with a shrug.

He doesn’t believe Trump was being racist for telling four congresswomen, all women of color, to “go back” to the countries they came from. It doesn’t matter much that all four of the women are American citizens, Brasch said the uproar over Trump’s tweet is a distraction and his detractors are “just playing politics.”

“I look at what he’s accomplished and not what he says,” the 58-year-old said during a lunch break at the Wingin’ It bar in this pocket of rural Wisconsin.
