Ilhan Omar mocks Trump figures for thanking Iblis - 'Satan in Arabic' - for backing president

US representative Ilhan Omar mocked prominent supporters of Donald Trump on Thursday after they were tricked into thanking “Iblis” - a figure analogous to “Satan in Arabic” - for supporting the incumbent president.

Republican figures caught up in the prank included former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, Fox News host Tomi Lahren, former Trump aide Sebastian Gorka, and former Arizona sheriff Joe Arpaio.

"Omg, they are so desperate and gullible. Watch as Trump surrogates thank ‘Iblis’ (Satan's name in Arabic) for supporting Trump," wrote the Somali-American congresswoman, who is herself seeking a second term on Tuesday.

The inadvertent insult from the pro-Trump personalities came as a result of the work of comedy writer Ali-Asghar Abedi.

In the video, the Trump loyalists all thanked “Iblis” for his passionate support of President Trump and reminding him to “make American great again”.

1. Well they're not wrong

2. With that crew I'm sure they love him being Satan.

3. They should be thanking him!

Trumpy never would have gotten anywhere without Iblis. Iblis has done so much for him, you just have to wonder if Trumpy is one of his bastard sons. I think it's a strong possibility.

5. What's with the "herself seeking a second term on Tuesday"? She won Nov 3 with 64% of the vote.
