ICYMI: Ilhan Omar Plays the Victim, Claims She Has Lived Through 'Presidential Harassment'

Linkedin Share

First, let’s all remember freshman Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (MN) comment trivializing 9/11…

Nearly 3,000 people were killed on September 11, 2001. According to Omar, “some people did something.”

No joke. Her words.

From Daily Caller:

Omar delivered the keynote speech at a fundraiser for CAIR in late March and urged Muslim Americans to “raise hell” and “make people uncomfortable.” In one part of her speech that surfaced on Twitter this week, Omar described the 9/11 attacks in a peculiar way.

Omar noted, “CAIR was founded after 9/11 because they recognized that some people did something, and that all of us were starting to lose access to our civil liberties.

Omar responded, maybe thinking she was being clever?

In case you live under a rock, see Trump’s tweet below from earlier in the week where he calls out Omar – which is why she just claimed she was “harassed” by the president…

Here are reactions to Omar’s “No thanks, just lived through one!” tweet:

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) demanded Trump remove his Omar-9/11 tweet.

The reason? Because 45 is putting Ilhan’s life in danger.

From Daily Wire:

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi demanded that President Donald Trump take down the video that he tweeted out on Friday that accurately portrayed Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) trivializing the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

She wrote:

Following the president’s tweet, I spoke with the Sergeant-at-Arms to ensure that Capitol Police are conducting a security assessment to safeguard Congresswoman Omar, her family and her staff. They will continue to monitor and address the threats she faces.

The President’s words weigh a ton, and his hateful and inflammatory rhetoric creates real danger. President Trump must take down his disrespectful and dangerous video.

Are these Democrats out of control or what? It is just beyond comincal at this point.

Some people took to Trump’s tweet to criticize the president and defend Ilhan:

Did Ilhan reveal her true anti-American colors once and for all?
