So did Trump blow it by implicitly telling Rep. Ilhan Omar to go back to her home country, fix it up, and get back to us? Did he overplay his hand? Is a remark like that, universally decried by Democrats, a step too far? Not by Trump's standards. The controversial string of tweets, which stirred the pot mightily in the press, was as politically incorrect as it comes. In fact, Trump hasn't put out a string like this since the 2016 campaign......
It's telling that even as Pelosi spars with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Trump took on Ocasio-Cortez's pal, Rep. Ilhan Omar, the only one who comes from a foreign country.
Omar, it turns out, is a massive liability for the Democrats. Making her the face of the Democrats is a pretty good way of triggering a GOP landslide, not just in the White House, but in the House of Representatives. Among the working-class voters Democrats must win over to win the presidency, and, for that matter, both houses of Congress, Omar sports an abysmal 9% approval rating along with a 53% recognition rate. She's the most unpopular of all of them. According to the Daily Wire:

Pin her to Pelosi and Schumer. Hang her around the neck of whatever lunatic wins the Dem nomination.

Good plan to force Pelosi to defend the socialist squad.
Omar hates America and Americans, she SHOULD go back to her beloved Somalia.
The higher Omar’s visibility the brttrr for DJT.
Omar came here as a refugee. Trump is absolutely right in telling her to pound sand back to Shitholistan. You don’t land somewhere as a “refugee” and then whine about everything. You don’t like it here? Move on.
Did the President specifically mean Omar or was he referring to anyone and everyone from elsewhere who came from elsewhere and are complaining about the USA?
In before the “I usually like Trump’s tweets, but...”
They’ve dispensed with the “I wish Trump would stop tweeting.”
Omar is the one I despise the most. Her ideology is based on pure evil intent. By contrast, AOC is more of a buffoonish idiot who landed in Congress by pure accident.
“Making her the face of the Democrats is a pretty good way of triggering a GOP landslide”
The morons are just now figuring this out.
Trump merely said what most people are already thinking.
Average US citizen: put her on the first plane out. In the baggage compartment.
I believe he was telling her to go back to her district and fix it up.
If she has a very strong dislike of this country, that would have to extend to the district she represents.
You want to affect positive change in this country, start there.
No.
The neat thing about America is these haters are FREE to leave any time they wish. There’s the door. Use it.
Even the dems don’t really want her, so no loss either way.
He means that she has a higher duty to go fix up her country.
Trump is smart and has all the secret information in the world available to him, and that means that none of them were born in the United States.
Committed marriage fraud to obtain citizenship. Deport the saracen.
“who landed in Congress by pure accident”
She’s not an accident.
She’s what you get when her people become the majority.
They take a superficial twit like her seriously.
There’s a reason their countries look the way they do: these are NOT smart people. They’re easily duped by a mildly cunning clown act.
The contrast of a buffoon like her against serious players like Trump doesn’t exist in Latin America. They’re ALL either thugs or clowns. And not very good at either shtick.
He said they should go back to the places they came from.
The “never trumpers” are clucking their tongues saying “well I never”, and hoping that DJT scored an own goal I believe he was mainly referring to the brother marrying somalie. The one who cheers for the wrong side when she watches black hawk down. I thought it was great! She needs to go back and it can’t leave fast enough.
