Yesterday, Trump took to Twitter to express his disapproval with Democrat congresswomen like AOC and Ilhan Omar, sparking fierce backlash from the left.
Earlier today, the president responded to the criticism he received from the series of tweets he posted on Sunday at a live press conference where he defended what he said on Sunday and added a few additional criticisms, including how Omar speaks about terrorism, 9/11, and Al Quaeda.
Trump said, “I mean, I look at the one, I look at Omar, I don’t know her, I never met her. I hear the way she talks about al Qaeda. Al Qaeda has killed many Americans. She said you could hold your chest out. When I think of America, huh. When I think of al Qaeda, I can hold my chest out. When she talked about the World Trade Center being knocked down, some people, you remember the famous ‘some people.’ These are people that, in my opinion, hate our country.”
