So, let’s be as clear as possible: The vision of America represented by the “Squad” and its defenders in this dispute is a better one than the vision of America that Trump is defending. The reason the new House resolution condemning Trump’s racism is significant is that it tries to meet this challenge. This is also why it’s significant that House Republicans almost uniformly voted against the resolution, going all in with Trump in this dispute. And House Republicans could not bring themselves to condemn Trump’s vision, or even to call it out for what it is. This is the tradition the House resolution reaffirmed.
