During a rally last summer, President Donald Trump and his supporters revealed just how much contempt they hold for Congresswoman Ilhan Omar (D-MN), one of the first Muslim women elected to Congress.

A day after Trump suggested that Omar and the other congresswomen of color making up "the squad" go back to the countries from where they came, the crowd at his rally chanted to "send her back" to the war-torn Somalia she escaped as a child before immigrating to the United States.

Americans across the country were horrified at the open racism on display at the rally, but over a year later, Trump is back to the same tactics.

At a Tuesday night rally, the President once again targeted Omar and implied that she wasn't an American.

Watch below.

Trump said:

"She's telling us how to run our country. How did you do where you came from? How was your country doing? She's telling us how to run our country."

Omar was a refugee who escaped Somalia at eight years old before spending years in a refugee camp, then finally immigrating to the United States. She has been a United States citizen for two decades.

Despite Trump's racism, Omar had no trouble clapping back at him and his supporters' jeers.


Twitter users commended Omar's comeback.






But they were disgusted at Trump's initial remarks.




Earlier this year, Omar handily won her district's Democratic primary and is almost certainly heading to Congress for another term.

Education Secretary Linda McMahon Gets Epically Schooled After Sharing Mind-Boggling Tweet About The PSP Console

Education Secretary and former WWE co-founder Linda McMahon was swiftly fact-checked after she posted an odd tweet about how the PlayStation Portable (PSP) console was "the beginning of life on the go."

One wonders why the Education Secretary would post something to mark the 21st anniversary of the system’s 2005 launch in the United States. At the time, the device received a mixed reception, with critics pointing to its underwhelming battery life and lackluster graphics.

Guy Admits His Ignorance After Girlfriend Educates Him On What Really Happens During Menstruation—And He's Horrified

Women's health should be much more common knowledge than it is, but many subjects related to women—especially menstruation, pregnancy, and childbirth—are still considered pretty "taboo" subjects in public spaces, in shared educational spaces, and, of course, among men.

That's why there are so many men like TikToker @connortalkslol who only start finding out what menstruation really is and what the cycle entails when they go looking for the information themselves.
