Trump Unleashes Nasty Tirade at Ilhan Omar: ‘She Oughta Get the Hell Out of Our Country!’

President Donald Trump launched a wild rant at Friday’s make-up White House Correspondents’ Dinner towards Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), declaring, “She oughta get the hell out of our country!”

Speaking about what he described as “California’s policies of enabling wildfires, paying drug addicts to be homeless, giving free sex changes to illegals, and telling rich people they’re going to take away all your money,” Trump claimed that people are “fleeing in droves.”

“We can’t have that in this country,” the president said. “It’s becoming such a horrible and dangerous location that Ilhan Omar, one of my favorites, and her brother are thinking about moving together. They’re very much in love.”

Here, the president was once again referencing unfounded claims that the congresswoman married her brother to gain entrance into the U.S. from Somalia. In reality, Omar and her family fled the civil war in Somalia when she was eight, before spending four years in a refugee camp in Kenya. They arrived in the U.S. in 1995, when Omar was 12 years old.

“A video has surfaced recently of Ilhan giving a speech, referring to World War II as World War 11,” Trump continued. “And they asked her about that, and she still thought she got it right. But I’m not surprised, because she’s a low I.Q. person, and she’s also a very dishonest person, and she oughta get the hell out of our country!”

The president added, “She shouldn’t be here. She shouldn’t be in our country. She also calls her brother ‘husband number one.’ Omar is reportedly being investigated for fraud. She revised her net worth. I was shocked to see that she was worth much more than $30 million. And then when the press got on her, she revised it slightly downward to less than $18,000.”

Omar told TMZ in May that she believes she’s being unfairly targeted because the Trump administration is full of “racists” and is “bigoted.”
