During a lunchtime address on Wednesday, President Donald Trump launched a blistering attack on Democratic Representatives Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib, following their disruptive behavior during his State of the Union address. While Trump maintained a composed demeanor during his nearly two-hour-long speech to Congress the previous night, he did not hold back when commenting on the two Congresswomen and some Hollywood celebrities the next day. He suggested that Omar, Tlaib, actor Robert De Niro, and Rosie O’Donnell might do well to “get on a boat” and leave the United States.
Trump Brands Omar and Tlaib Lunatics
Trump’s tirade began with a harsh critique of Omar and Tlaib, whom he accused of “screaming uncontrollably” during what he described as a “very elegant” State of the Union event. He went on to label them “lunatics” with “bulging, bloodshot eyes” and suggested they were “mentally deranged.” The President’s remarks also included a call to send them “back from where they came” as swiftly as possible. Notably, Omar, a naturalized citizen from Somalia, represents a district in Minneapolis with a significant immigrant population. Tlaib, born in Detroit to Palestinian immigrants, along with Omar, made history as the first Muslim women elected to Congress.
Continuing his diatribe, Trump turned his attention to Robert De Niro, whom he labeled as “Trump Deranged” and possessing an “extremely Low IQ.” The President described De Niro’s emotional display at a protest event as “sick and demented,” drawing a comparison to his long-standing adversary Rosie O’Donnell. De Niro had participated in an event called the “State of the Swamp” at the National Press Club, where attendees donned frog costumes. Meanwhile, O’Donnell, according to Trump, was in Ireland contemplating her return to the United States.
‘ The only difference between De Niro and Rosie is that she is probably somewhat smarter than him, which isn’t saying much,’ Trump continued on Truth Social. ‘The good news is that America is now Bigger, Better, Richer, and Stronger than ever before, and it’s driving them absolutely crazy!’ he added. Omar and Tlaib are founding members of the progressive ‘squad,’ alongside Representatives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ayanna Pressley. They both yelled up at Trump during the big speech.
Omar was captured getting emotional when the President referred to her Somali community as ‘pirates’ and tapped Vice President JD Vance to be his fraud czar, after Somali immigrants came under fire for schemes to bilk millions from Minnesota taxpayers. Trump dubiously claimed that ‘we will actually have a balanced budget overnight’ if enough fraud is discovered. ‘You have killed Americans!’ Omar shot back at one point – a reference to the DHS killings of citizens Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Tlaib then joined in. She sported a pin that read ‘[expletive] ICE.’
Trump Has Long Targeted Omar
When Trump called for more limitations on transgender youth on Tuesday night, Tlaib responded by yelling that if he wanted to protect girls, he should release the Epstein files. Several victims of the late [child predator] Jeffrey Epstein had been invited to attend the State of the Union address. Trump has long gone after Omar, mocking her ‘little turban’ at a rally-like appearance in Pennsylvania in December, during a speech that was supposed to be centered on his economic victories. His rhetoric has been called racist, as he’s consistently said that Omar should go back to where she came from.
