Trump Calls on Justice Department to Probe Minnesota's Omar

Source: Bloomberg

(Bloomberg) -- President Donald Trump urged the Justice Department to investigate Representative Ilhan Omar at a campaign rally on Friday, disparaging the Democrat and repeating unsubstantiated allegations she married her brother and migrated to the U.S. illegally.

Omar and and other liberal, female lawmakers are an occasional target for Trump’s campaign speeches. On Friday, during a rally in Ocala, Florida, Trump said he thinks he’ll win Minnesota in November’s election because of the representative, who was born in Somalia.

“She hates our country. She comes from a place that doesn’t even have a government, and then she comes here tells us how to run our country,” he told his audience.

“Thank you very much, she’s a real -- she’s a wonderful -- she’s a wonderful person,” he added, sarcastically.

who is a mouthpiece for the party that has been trying to 'tell us how to run the country' for the past 35 years, that statement helps expose even more of the hypocrisy spewing from both the orange gibbon and the rethuglican party. VOTE THEM ALL OUT!

He doesn't get that her District loves her and votes her in with large numbers (78% of the vote). He needs to clean his own front house before he starts on other people's houses.

He is talking about getting the justice department to investigate the Democratic party and make up false shit, supplied by the Russians. The President is a TRAITOR and on the wrong side of history. He Must pay BIGLY!

Look, look over there, not at meeee. LOOK!!! Investigate!

Must be getting scared. Covid touched his ass, and he couldn't protect his family from it. For someone who claims to be a germaphobe he must not wash his hands much. Clearly hates masks. Economy is shit. Foreign relations is a mess. That shit-show of a town hall was a joke, except for Guthrie spanking his ass. His precious ratings lost to Biden's. So what else to do, but pack 'em in for rallies. Say outlandish shit, lay it low and spread it wide. Lots of attention, cause a commotion. Call for investigation of Rep. Omar., the Bidens, Obama, Hillary...blah blah... Spread Giuliani's disinformation. let his crazy show on stage. Qanon is great. Cry that he will have to leave if he loses. Keep the deplorables and racists going, standing back and standing by. Awaiting his stupid orders. Spread the Covid, who cares? He thinks they're disgusting anyway. But they follow him, and will engage in violence for him. He loves that.

Problem is, any such "orders" are illegal, and if given to police and military, they are unlawful. They will not stand. Another issue, just because we are liberal or democratic, that does not mean we will not defend ourselves.

Stock up on groceries and goods. Vote as if your life depends on it, because it does. If this wannabe dictator gets another term he may never leave. Wake up. His lies are being aired out. He is unraveling, and desperate people do illogical things. Expect the unexpected. So vote early, get your loved ones to do so. Then get home and stay there, strap in, because who knows what's going to happen Nov. 3rd and thereafter. Let law enforcement handle them.

Stay safe.

How could she marry him? There isn't anything about him that is positive. Haha, now she has doubts about his wealth as well.

I hope that we don't have to deal with this Orange Turd much longer. He is sucking the joy out of living. I don't want to live under his rule, yet there is nowhere to go.

Stick together. Stock up. Don't get into arguments. Just get ready. If we don't need it, that's fine. But, if we do, we'll be ready.

had.....Going after an opponent like Omar is absolute proof to others (not us) that he gone
totally nuts..).

...Trump doesn't know how important this is, but it is very important, because going after a
sitting person in congress from Minnesota is stupid beyond stupid. It crosses a line that other
people in congress (Yes, the Republicans) know that Trump should not cross if he is sane.

...Yes, it proves to some, that he is crazy. You might say that doesn't matter..Well it does, if
Trump wants to win Minnesota, and if moderate Republicans are needed to help get him out, (if
he refuses to leave,)... then we will need all the help we can get...And words like these prove to
everyone that he is mentally sick. When he attacks others with this kind of viciousness, he proves
to all that he is not worthy of protecting. And if you do not think that Republicans are sizing up
his sanity, then you are wrong...I think that many leaders of that party have been watching him
very carefully these last few months.(especially since February)..

...I honestly believe that if Trump refuses to leave, FOR ANY REASON, then we will see the results of
Donald Trump refusing to shut up when he needed to. The country will unite behind Joe Biden
because of Trump's overwhelming loss, and we will come together to remove Trump from the
White House...Because of statements like the above, Trump is hurting himself more than he
can possibly know. Yes, after the loss, if Trump refuses to leave, the entire country will unite
behind President Joe, and one way or another Trump will be gone. The military and the secret
service will not follow Trump, and will literally carry him out kicking and screaming if that is what
needs to be done...(My deepest opinion is that if he refuses to leave, his family will do everything
possible to get him to leave, as will leaders of his political party, his friends as well as the most important leaders of this country..including past Presidents of the U.S.A)...Trump can talk all he wants,
but when or if he refuses to leave...all people will unite to get him out....Yes, ALL PEOPLE...and
the final results will not be close, it will be a landslide against him.
