Rep. Ilhan Omar responded to Donald Trump‘s persistent attacks against her, saying that statements by Trump and Rep. Nancy Mace show the country is “led by idiots.”
Trump disparaged Minnesota Democrat and her home country of Somalia while speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One on Thursday. After a resolution to censure Omar over statements about late conservative activist Charlie Kirk failed, the president called for her to be impeached.
