There are two types of xenophobia:
The first type is cultural in nature. Those who are xenophobic are so against the objects and elements of a culture, such as clothing or language.
The second type of xenophobia is when an entire group is not considered part of the society. This can result, most often, from a mass immigration by one group into a country, though xenophobia can be present in relation to groups in the society who joined the community quite some time ago. This type of xenophobia can result in hostility and violence on a lower level up to greater persecution of the group through genocide.

Neither of those types apply to what Trump said.

In your opinion
Trump defined a group and then suggested they leave our society.
"Progressive” Democrat Congresswomen, who originally came from countries"

He didn't "suggest" they leave our society. He said go fix those countries' problems then come back and tell us how it is done.

Trump did not say that Progressive Democrat Congresswomen from other countries are not a part of our society.
