Ilhan Omar fired back at President Trump.
Representative Ilhan Omar has fired back at President Trump after he made a biting remark about her to reporters Friday.
Trump had been asked about his thoughts on the public spat between House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and several freshmen lawmakers when he said: "I think that a group of people is being very disrespectful...to her. And you know what? I don't think that Nancy can let that go on."
One of the issues has been Pelosi's criticism of their social media use to address conflicts.
Trump continued: "A group of people that came from — I don't know where they came from. I'm looking at this Omar from Minnesota, and if one half of the things they're saying about her are true, she shouldn't even be in office."
Omar promptly posted a tweet in response to that comment.
"If one-tenth of what they say about you is true, you shouldn't be in office," she wrote.
