President Trump just dropped the hammer after Ilhan Omar attacked him. Look, Trump is a counterpuncher, and anyone with as many skeletons in their closet as Omar needs to walk a fine line.
She, like most Democrats, went after Trump for telling a joke at a campaign rally. But for the humorless Democrats that is a no-no. People like funny - people like Trump.
From The Daily Wire: Far-left Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) attacked President Donald Trump on Thursday over joking remarks that he made on Wednesday night at a campaign rally in Florida.
While talking about what border agents can do about illegal aliens who are crossing over the southern border, Trump said: “Don’t forget, we don’t let [border security agents] and we can’t let them use weapons, we can’t. Other countries do, but we can’t. I would never let them do that.”
At that moment a person in the crowd shouted a remark that was difficult to hear on a video of the rally. A couple of people claim that the person in the crowd shouted, “Shoot them!”
“That’s only in the Panhandle you can get away with that statement,” Trump jokingly responded while smiling and shaking his head. “Only in the Panhandle.”
Omar responded to the comments by tweeting: “This was hard to watch and listen to but unsurprising that Trump would laugh about shooting people who come to our country seeking a better life.”
The Trump Campaign quickly responded to Omar’s tweet with a video showing her laughing and joking while talking about Al-Qaeda, the Islamic terrorist group that murdered 3,000 Americans during the 9/11 terror attacks.
