(Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn.,) said Sunday night she's received an influx of death threats since President Trump tweeted a video that combined comments from the congresswoman — which critics said were dismissive of the Sept. 11 attacks — with footage from (Ground Zero). [snip]The president tweeted the video out last Friday. It included a snippet from a recent speech Omar gave to the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).

CAIR had been formed in 1994.

Looks to me like she’s scared silly ........ b/c Trump said he’s planning to campaign in Minnesota.

The residual animosity the thieving, violent Somalis stirred up there bodes well for a Trump 2020 win there.

There’s tons of votes just by promising to lift this one’s security clearance and her citizenship ....and deport the whole mess of ‘em.
