    “You know I met the head of Somalia, did you know that?” he told reporters at the Oval Office in September. “And I suggested that maybe he’d like to take her back. He said ‘I don’t want her.’”

    Not even assuming the conversation Trump is relating is true. But the fact that he thinks it’s totally normal to talk about trading people like playing cards with another country’s leader tells you all you need to know about Trump.

    “I have no worry, I don’t know how they’d take away my citizenship and like deport me,” she said on The Dean Obeidallah Show. “But I don’t even know like why that’s such a scary threat. Like I’m not the 8-year-old who escaped war anymore. I’m grown, my kids are grown. Like I could go live wherever I want if I wanted to. It’s a weird thing to wake up every single day to bring that into every single conversation, ‘we’re gonna deport Ilhan.’”

    Go BACK to Where you ILLEGALLY CAME FROM Before you put even MORE Americans out of Work!

    Of COURSE I’m talking about Ilhan Omar and NOT South African Elon Musk who’s here ILLEGALLY RICH!

      Trump always acts like his family was on the Mayflower. He’s a second gen American and all his wives are foreign born. He and his entire family are just as much of a foreigner as Omar.

        My family was on the Mayflower but if Ireland would like to take me back on account of the generational sin and all that I’d be happy to get on the plane.

        Some of my ancestors came to what’s now the US over a century before the Mayflower (they were conquistadors). It’s not an achievement and says nothing about how American I am.

        Trump’s unamerican not because of his ancestry, but because of his values and behavior.

          No, but they raise a point that if conservatives care so much about immigrants and ancestry then there is hypocrisy here. Obviously, because conservatism doesn’t function without it, but it’s still a direct response to something being screamed about.

      No thanks, we don’t want him back. Just drop him off the plane over the Atlantic if you must.

          Thiel was moved out of Germany when he was like 4. Either we admit that nurture is more important than the country of birth, or Hitler doesn’t count as German

      The Somalis have enough issues. I suggest the orange paedo goes on a nice rocket ride to the sun, specifically the very middle of it.

    What disgusting racism, both in his conduct, and supporters repeating and amplifying his comments. Republicans truly are the worst.

        Why bother even doing that? Just give him a tour of an SRB. Make it an exciting tour by showing him the nozzle during a static fire test.

      Sorry, they’ve been defunded. Best they can do is have a guy from Fox News with no scientific background waddle out and claim Climate Change is a hoax made up by the demoncRATS. Maybe blame it on the Jews too, if AIPAC hasn’t been donating as much lately.
