Donald Trump tells Ilhan Omar to leave the country. Thoughts?

President Donald Trump on Saturday went after Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), who is of Somali roots, urging her to leave the country in a social media post.

“She should go back!” he wrote on Truth Social, alongside a video of Omar speaking to a crowd.

Trump also called out Omar multiple times during his first term, in one instance accusing her of “telling us how to run our country” during the final months of the 2020 campaign.

Her office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

But the four-term lawmaker told a radio host Friday that she isn’t concerned by rhetoric around her immigration status.

“I have no worry, I don’t know how they’d take away my citizenship and like deport me,” she said on The Dean Obeidallah Show. “But I don’t even know like why that’s such a scary threat. Like I’m not the 8-year-old who escaped war anymore. I’m grown, my kids are grown. Like I could go live wherever I want if I wanted to. It’s a weird thing to wake up every single day to bring that into every single conversation, ‘we’re gonna deport Ilhan.’”
