Watch: President Trump hosts third annual 'Made in America' product showcase

President Donald Trump will host the third annual "Made in America Product Showcase" on the South Lawn of the White House on Monday.

Trump established the annual product showcase to feature goods made by American businesses. The event was criticized last year after the White House served guests with silverware manufactured in China.

The president is scheduled to have lunch with Vice President Mike Pence following the event.

The event comes a day after Trump stoked outrage and accusations of xenophobia by attacking four progressive Democratic congresswomen.

In a series of posts on Twitter, the president told Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-.N.Y., Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., and Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., to "go back" to where they came from — though three of the four were born in the United States.

@realDonaldTrump: So interesting to see "Progressive" Democrat Congresswomen, who originally came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe, the worst, most corrupt and inept anywhere in the world (if they even have a functioning government at all), now loudly......

Ocasio-Cortez, Tlaib, and Pressley were born in the U.S. Omar was born in Somalia, but became a U.S. citizen as a teenager.

Ocasio-Cortez, a lightning rod for criticism both from Republicans and moderate members of her own party, said on Twitter that the president's comments displayed the "hallmark language of white supremacists."
