Ilhan Omar criticized the participation of Democrats in Trump’s inauguration ceremony
The Muslim Democratic representative of the US Congress criticized the presence of his party colleagues at the inauguration of Donald Trump after the Republican figure refused to participate in the inauguration of Joe Biden in 2021.
According to Isna, “Ilhan Omar”, the female Muslim Democratic representative of the American Congress, said in a statement addressed to “Caitlan Collins”, the host of the “CNN” channel: “They did not have the honor to invite the Biden family to the White House.” Therefore, considering the level of insult they have displayed and the disrespect they have had for tradition, no one should have any respect and dignity for him (Trump).”
This lawmaker of the US Congress had previously clashed with Trump and the Republicans over the comments they made about how Ilhan Omar immigrated to the United States as the child of a Somali family.
In 2023, the Republicans of the US House of Representatives fired Ilhan Omar from the Foreign Affairs Committee of this House for making statements that these Republicans said were “anti-Semitic”.
Trump criticized Ilhan Omar during the 2020 presidential election campaign.
During a rally, Trump said to Ilhan Omar: “He is telling us how to run our country. What do you think about where you come from? How is your country run?”
Ilhan Omar immediately reacted to these words of Trump on social media and has always criticized the policies of this American president, especially his policy for the return of asylum seekers.
In a statement published last week, Ilhan Omar wrote: “At a time when global strife, economic uncertainty, and the climate crisis are fueling unprecedented levels of forced migration, it is beyond shameful that the President of the United States is telling those who are suffering from a global disaster.” Suffering has turned his back. This inhumane decision will have increasingly dangerous effects around the world.”
One of the main axes of Trump’s policies, both in his first term and in the current term, is anti-immigration. The ban on the entry of citizens of Muslim countries, the mass deportation of illegal immigrants and the attempt to build a border wall with Mexico are examples of his actions in this direction, and he is trying to pursue these policies more vigorously when he returns to power.
