Ilhan Omar Hits Back at Trump
Pollemix News – September 23, 2020
Minnesota Representative Ilhan Omar hit back at President Trump after he derided her at a Pennsylvania rally saying “She’s telling us how to run our country. How did you do where you came from? How is your country doing?”
In response, Congresswoman Omar tweeted at the President:
Firstly, this is my country & I am a member of the House that impeached you.
Secondly, I fled civil war when I was 8. An 8-year-old doesn’t run a country even though you run our country like one. https://t.co/zcKKjdC8ju

Omar has been a favorite target of the President and in turn Omar has been a frequent critic of the Trump administration so there is no love lost between the pair. Furthermore, polling suggests Trump is within touching distance of Joe Biden in the usually reliably blue state of Minnesota so singling out Omar may be a play towards energizing Republican voters within the “Gopher State”.
