Overview
- Trump on Saturday shared a previously circulated video of Rep. Ilhan Omar and wrote "She should go back!" on Truth Social.
- The clip shows Omar saying "Somalia is our home" and referring to Somalia’s president as "our President" during a Minnesota event.
- Omar is a naturalized U.S. citizen who fled Somalia as a child during the country’s civil war.
- The video had earlier been promoted by the X account "End Wokeness," and past translations of Omar’s remarks have been disputed as misleading.
- The post follows Trump’s prior attacks, including 2019 rally chants of "send her back" and his September claim that he told Somalia’s leader to "take her back."
