Trump attacks Omar for criticizing US: 'How did you do where you came from?'
The Hill ^ | 09/22/20 08:17 PM EDT | Brett Samuels

President Trump on Tuesday complained that Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) should not be giving input on how to run the country, asking of the Somali refugee, "How is your country doing?"

The president's attacks on Omar came as part of a broader diatribe against a group of freshmen congresswomen known as "The Squad," which consists of Omar and Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) and Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.).

"We’re going win the state of Minnesota because of her, they say," Trump said of Omar. "She’s telling us how to run our country. How did you do where you came from? How is your country doing?"

— Acyn Torabi (@Acyn) September 22, 2020 The comments were the latest personal attacks Trump has levied against Omar, who arrived in the United States with her family after fleeing war-torn Somalia. She is a U.S. citizen.

A crowd at one of the president's North Carolina rallies last year chanted "send her back" about the congresswoman as Trump looked on.

He has also accused her of being anti-Semitic because of her views on the conflict between the Israelis and Palestinians, and the president tweeted last year that the four "Squad" members, all women of color, should "go back" to their countries. All four are U.S. residents and only Omar was born outside of the U.S.

Trump also took aim at Ocasio-Cortez during Tuesday's rally, saying she's "not a good student" or a "good anything, but she’s got a good line of crap."

Omar is not even her real name.
She committed fraud to get into our country.
She committed more fraud when she married her brother to get him a green card.

Excellent. Omar is a prime example of why refugee admissions should be much more strictly vetted, and much fewer in numbers.

He has also accused her of being anti-Semitic because of her views on the conflict between the Israelis and Palestinians,

He called her anti Semitic because she is a rabid Jew hater. She is anti Semitic to the extreme.

Omar’s family worked for the Muslim Marxists and when they had to flee the country because it didn’t work out for them there, they came over here to try it.

Why were police protesting?

Were any “reporters” protesting?

Pointing a cellphone at someone doesn’t make you a “reporter”.

Even Zappruder wouldn’t claim to be a journalist.

He called her anti-Semitic because David Duke (D-KKK) considers her his FAVORITE congressperson.

>>In a Thursday podcast at his site, the former Ku Klux Klan Grand Wizard spoke out strongly in favor of the Muslim Congresswoman who has accused Jewish lawmakers of dual loyalty, attributed support for Israel to foreign money, and said Israel has “hypnotized” the world.
>>
>>“By defiance to Z.O.G. Ilhan Omar is NOW the most important Member of the US Congress!” Mr. Duke wrote on hissite, using the acronym for “Zionist Occupation Government,” a term anti-Semites use to refer to the U.S. government as secretly controlled by Jews.

Refugee admission is just another way to enlarge the democrat voter base. Everything they do is about the vote.
